I don't know what it's like to have a typical father figure. He's not the dad who's going to take me to the beach and go swimming, but he's such a motivational person.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My dad's not a very intimidating father figure.
Being a father is an everyday challenge. It goes on and on.
I don't know how consciously anyone looks for a father figure.
I'm just a pretty regular dad.
The most challenging part of being a dad is self-restraint. So often your instinct is to teach and tell. I am constantly reminding myself to listen to them.
My father is definitely not the kind of guy who'd place his children in key roles within his organization if he didn't think we could surpass the expectations he had for us.
I'm just as insufferable and useless as every other dad is. The dynamic never changes, no matter what you do for a living.
The father figure is something I love, but also suffocate from and want to work against.
The father figure doesn't impress me. I have a very friendly relationship with my father, but that wasn't always the case. My mother had custody, and I only saw him every other weekend. I never knew him well enough for him to inspire me.
I think you need something to take care of in order to figure out who you are as a person, and in that way, being a dad has levelled me out more than anything. You've just got to be good for that person no matter what's going on in your head that day.
