First, lets define the word "father". so in dictionary meaning it is a man in relation to his natural child or children or a man that raises a child. or a man that adopts a child.yes, all of these is a true meaning of the word father. but do you think in this simple meaning do we know the meaning of being a father? of course not . lets apply it, in first meaning it is man that has relation to his natural child or children. so do you think having relation to your natural child doing nothing is an act of being a father ? of course not again. second it is man that raise a child, how about this? do we now know the true value of being a father? i think not in just raising a child its easy just feed them give them water and money and you can raise them. but what is the true value of being a father ? And so being a father is a huge responsibility . you need to feed them not just giving food but you need to know what is the right food for them. you need to take care of them. you need to be a role model to them. show the true value of life . teach them how to be a better person. and also being a father needs lot of sacrifices. not only in time but also in work . in all the things that you do for pleasure now you cannot do all of these . and in my case in studies. yes i'm a student parent and researcher on how to be a father . of course we all know in studying we need a lot of money. for me i'm studying for 3 years now in college and that money could be enough to feed my child for 1 year. but you might ask me why i'm still studying? its simply because i want to be a father to my child. how? look how can i teach him basic knowledge if me myself didn't know what is it. how can i share him my experience in life ? and how can i make him a better man if me also is not better? so i'm studying for him. for his future. and for me to become a role model to him. Because i believe that you can only say that you're a father if your child or children grew with a very nice personality . and can call him a better man. So if you will be given a chance to become a father don't just give him/her what is enough but give them the best that you can . for someday they could say i'm successful because my father is the one who trained me to become one of these. and that is the true meaning of being a father.
