Is There A Father In The House?

When I tell  people that my  mother and father are married - to each other - and for the past 60 years - I get the following reactions: You're lucky, That's great, For real? I'm jealous. 

It appears that many adults wish they had spent their childhood with a dad in the house even as they find it nearly impossible to build the kinds of relationships that will allow their kids to experience childhood with a mother and father residing harmoniously together under one roof. 

Since June is the month when we think about fathers, I discuss the conditions in the community that I believe need to be present for fathers to best bestow their blessings. "Is A Father In the Home Like A Rotary Phone: Out-dated, Old-fashioned, Old-school?" appears in the new launch of the award-winning web site www.BlackAndMarriedWithKids.com.

Check it out.

Then tell me what you think.

  1. Hi Joy. I so enjoyed this issue, especially the story
    about your Dad. It was so insightful and touching. I
    too grew up with a Dad in the house. I was one of 5
    siblings but was truly a Daddy's girl. I often say that
    my Mom's love was unquestionable, but it was my
    Dad that gave me wings. No matter what path I chose in my life, he always supported me wholeheartedly.
    I was the first in my immediate family to finish college. My Father held my hand at take off on my first flight ever to DC to attend Howard. I remember getting a fellowship to go to Africa to study art with noted Contemporary artists. In spite of his fears of me traveling alone, he allowed me to go. At a time when Dads really relished their girls getting married, mine encouraged me to pursue my own goals wherever they led.
    Sadly, my Dad passed away a year after I married and never saw his three grandchildren, but his memory left an indelible mark on my heart.
    Thanks Joy this morning for bringing this memory back.
