I have a dad-ager. My dad is really good at the business end of things. But it's really a family affair. My mother handles all my social media stuff - Facebook, Twitter, e-mails, that kind of thing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My dad is very successful in his business. He's always been big in having hobbies and having little ways to get away. He always made time for hunting and fishing. He always encouraged me to do it.
My dad is the first to say that Mum deals with the mortgage payments, the bills, the rota, things like that, while my dad is the emotional one who keeps the home together. He's the nurturer, but together, they work perfectly.
I'm a mom. I work. I have a house to clean, things to organize. We all have certain similar needs, and I address them.
My dad has no control over who works with me. Me, me and me alone has to take responsibility for anything.
I can talk to my dad like he's my manager, and put 'Dad' on the back burner. We've been doing it since I was 13.
I come from a really big family, my father was a businessman and what he always instilled in us was to be your own boss. My father built up his business, and he was by no means a rich man, but he figured out how to work four-and-a-half days a week.
I think all family businesses are difficult and fraught with problems because you have that family relationship to get over. But my dad has been so supportive, we've managed to work around that.
My son spends as much time with his dad as he does with me.
My dad takes care of me as a manager and as a dad. That's his job, you know, to take care of me. He has my best interests at heart.
My mom's a social worker, and my dad works in non-profit organisations.
