There is power in our children watching us practice self-kindness vs. berating ourselves or putting ourselves down when we stumble, fail, or make mistakes.

No matter how we encourage them to talk to themselves, they are definitely watching to see what really matters.

[Fathers Reaching Out @MarkWilliamsFMH]

All professionals have a duty of care to have a five minute conversation with Dad's.

I don't want to hear he's never there!! Phone him , use Skype, email , leaflets, Zoom , tell the partner!!!

A five minute conversation and simply ask #Howareyoudad

[Brené Brown @BreneBrown]

There is no mastery without feedback. But it’s hard.

This checklist has really helped me over the years.

My mantra for receiving feedback: Be brave. Listen. You can take what’s helpful and leave the rest.

My mantra for giving feedback: Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind.

Domestic abuse can affect anyone, regardless of gender, race, sexuality, where you live or how old you are. Asking for help can be tough, but you don’t have to do it alone. This week we’ll be introducing you to some of the people who can help. More here: https://t.co/PwT4xUIgqX
