My mom stayed at home to care for us as we couldn't afford a babysitter. Dad left for work before sunrise and came home after dark almost every day. It was later in the week and my brother and I noticed we hadn't seen dad in a while. My brother says "Do you think dad died?" Shortly after that, dad pull into the driveway because the job site got rained out. We ran up to him yelling "Dad! You're alive!" He was confused, so we told him why we thought he might have been dead. Fast-forward about 10 years or so and I'm in my early 20s. We're burning brush and dad sits next to me with a 12-pack of beer. He recalls that day and says "You were too little to realize it then, but that hit me hard." He told me how he went to his boss the next day and told him about it and said he needed to rethink his work schedule. I do remember having dad around more often in the evenings after school after that. He worked so hard to care for us all. RIP dad, I love you.
❤️
God bless you, God bless your dad and thank you for this sweet story
Didn’t expect comments would hit me hard on the feels today
Thank god his job site got rained out that day! He could cherish you and your brother after that, and you could also spend more time as a family 🥰 it was clearly the wake-up call he needed to realize that you family time was more important than the extra money. I'm glad you had the chance to spend this time with your dad, and I'm sorry for your loss, may he rest in peace 🙏🏽
💟💟💟
“If I eat less will you stay home more” 💔
She was willing to gave or sacrifice her need. Wonderful soul.
what parent's heart wouldnt break hearing that? 😔💔
He also had a mistress to take care of and probably a few bastards as well…?
This is every military family ever....
Idiotic story.... hes still trying to alleviate his guilt.
Im a trucker and do the best I can for my family. This hits hard.
Me too brother. If I stayed home, my schedule still would been screwed and mom would have had to get a job.
Respect
Everyone respects Truckers. You keep the world running. If truckers stopped the whole thing would collapse within 2 weeks.
You do what you can. Some day they will understand. Make the time you interact with them and spend in person with them count.
Your job are really important for many people not only just provided for your family
I grew up in a poor household with two very present parents. We didn’t have luxuries but there was abundant love. That taught me to put people before material things. It’s what I want to teach and show my children as well.
Present parents, the gift that keeps on giving ❤️
With how much things and serbices and school and rent and hones cost these days, you gotta make large money to be abel to disregard the basic material needs and the comfort they provide.
Maybe you didn't have luxuries but most likely you had way above average than others. That's not the same situation for many people.
Respectfully, I totally disagree.
Just so y’all know, a fridge is considered a luxury by the US government. TVs also😂
@@saibamoe there’s always someone in a worse condition that we are. I don’t think this is a competition on who had it the worst nor do I have to prove how poor my household was for my statement to be valid and true.
my father was a doctor and when I was turning three, he stayed home that whole day to celebrate my birthday with me and when he was put me to bed that night I asked him if he would come visit me again someday. my mom said he cried all night and he made a really tough decision and he changed his career so that he could stay home more. I think I was luckier than this girl, because my dad realized his family was more important than all the things he could give us financially. My Father by the way took very good care of us financially as well. he just found a different way of doing it that wouldn't require him being gone all the time.
What a good papa ♥️
My dad did the same when I told him I hated daycare, and having him there to raise me was the greatest act of love ❤️
A wise family man. You are blessed! Please give him a hug. 🌟💖✨
He made the best choice! Love comes first
You are right, this man is just trying to justify himself for his big mistakes, don't expend time with your child cos you are running behind the money show the empty person he is
The greatest present a father can gift his child is his presence.
You’re very correct, but I feel that the lessons and examples a father leaves for his children will resonate deeper in one’s life
For him its $$$ a roof and THINGS.
His presence on the factory line is, unfortunately, of greater concern and value than the luxuries of gifts 😞
@That hustle n grind life why don't you tell us what it's like to be poor?
He’ll be back, an even better present is a place to live. Fathers don’t need to sit around getting a list of chores from mom
I sold my business and raised my son from newborn to 5 yrs old. You will never get that time back with them at that age it's just literally priceless. We did everything together, daily walks, daily park trips, I couldn't imagine now not being with my son that much it would eat me alive. He's 6 now and I'll be upstairs watching a movie and sometimes feel I'm being selfish and turn it off and go play Legos for hours lol just can't get enough.
You’re a good dad, god bless you and your son ❤❤❤
Watch more Andre Tate brother, need some more testosterone in you.
@@FormidableOne I was a bodybuilder for 18 years, I don't need anything. I'm good
@@FormidableOneyou mean the man who didn't have his father around either? 😂
Exactly…you can not get your time with your kids again. They need you too.
Yup my dad worked a lot and would miss some events. I was soo mad. He kept saying he wanted to be there and that he had to be away in order to provide me with a better life then the one he grew up. I am turning 32, getting married and want to plan for kids. We were talking and I just said, “You know what Dad, I get it. I really understand what you meant and Thank you for that sacrifice.” He sad smiled and said, “I wish I had been there more.” It was then that I realized he really didn’t like working more than me, he just wanted more for me.
it’s such a heartbreaking reality. my moms generation and siblings all resent my grandpa for being gone to work so much. and i’m the ONLY one he lets in on his real feelings and his personal stories. and he just turned 76 and he brings that up a lot. tells me often how he wishes he could’ve worked less and been home more BUT i know being the only one bringing any cash flow into the home, food into the home, he had to. i always try to encourage peace making in his heart with that. it’s my mom and siblings that need to see that sacrifice. and appreciate it. in my personal opinion.
I wonder why this comment has only 97 likes because the reality is heartbreaking but no one wanna acknowledge it the way it is💔😢
He did what he had too. I also understand the sacrifice your dad made. Unfortunately I wasn't lucky enough to experience that. Although my dad and mom are married, and my dad was gone alot during the day... it was due to him being with another family. My mom did what she could and did an awesome job (with what she had) yet still we lacked a great number of things. Your dad did his best. Sounds like you and your dad have an amazing bond❤ blessings to you both!
Nobody on their deathbed ever said: "I wish I worked harder and had less contact with my loved ones"..
Jesus Christ all mighty, how dumb and ignorant are you
@@mokingaming6574 I don't know buddy.. I know I lost my son almost 2 years ago and wholeheartedly wishes I had spent more time with him.
Depends on what life throws your way. If you could not pay for needed treatment/care for a loved one by not putting in more effort/time in your job, you might look at things differently.
And no one eat love. They eat food and you most work for it
Yea but plenty of people on their deathbed wish they would have provided for their family
To the guys that provide for their families and still take them out for ice-cream salute. Your the true champs.
Thanks!! The nature or my job allows me to do it…
To the guys and gals...
@Deborah Brandt it's not about women, it was about men. Grow Pp
@Deborah Brandt it's not about women, it was about men. Grow Pp
That's real talk man
"If I eat less , will you stay home more?" Literally broke my heart
Is the definition of the word literally a joke to you?
My father was raised without a mother and an absent father. He never used as an excuse in life. He made my hot breakfast every morning. He made my lunch of fresh chicken salad or tuna. He made sure to cut off the crust. He made sure we knew family always came first. Our best friends were our cousins on both sides. He and my mother instilled morals and values. He was my hero. I miss him every day.
My dad did the exact opposite, the fairy tale choice and I can’t express how grateful I am for that.
He is my best friend and I know I can do anything because he is always there to support me and cry with me. I left home when 18 to live my dreams and this confidence came because of his stable presence. My dads sacrifice was a simpler life, simpler car.. but filled with high quality memories and passion for living ❤
Priceless
Ha!
Much better than having everything and no dad
That part!
my dad made this choice for me and my sisters and Im so grateful. I value it to this day, and I will forever.
Fathers are just as important in a child’s life as a Mother.
I told my husband that if his job takes him away from the family too much I want him to find a different one. I don’t need a big house, or fancy things, I just want him to be around and be a part of his daughters life. There will always be work to be done, but you only get to see your kids grow up once.

A lot of men don't have the choice between the two anyways. Both my mum and dad were gone almost all the time because they worked 15hr night shifts and slept through the mornings whilst we were at a school. When my dad lost his job, we were homeless. If you're in a position to take less money to spend more time with your kids and can still afford to feed them then you are in a position of privilege that most people do not have. Most homes live paycheck to paycheck already, with mothers and fathers who slave away just to buy you bread.
@@huricanethreeonesix agree but I do want to ask you a question. Was your family good with finances or bad with finances? I am genuinely curious.
Because working night shift myself I know they should have been paid a differential and you can make good money that way.
Again, not trying to throw shade I have just seen too many people use the living paycheck to paycheck as an excuse because they didn't know how to manage their money.
I mean I have lived paycheck to paycheck, and still figured out a way to have a savings.
@@cdog157depends on the location you live as well. Cost of living is different.
@@ladyvonwake1476 No offence taken, this is a fair question. My family was good with money. Unfortunately, my parents got paid not much above minimum wage and we were of family of 5 living in a 2 bedroom flat before being booted and forced to live with family for a while.
My parents, for the first couple of years that we were in the UK, were both in full time education at what would be the equivalent of a college diploma (we were Zambian immigrants) so they could study Law and Medicine at university.
I get where you are coming from but the problem is evident here even in the statistics (and not just my anecdotes). 22% of british people (nearly a quater) live below the poverty line and, therefore, live pay check to pay check if not worse. This is more than just "rough living", I guarantee you that, and the numbers are too high. The lower-middle class is also being senselessly gutted in my country such that another 50% can barely afford the mortgage on the homes they "own", let alone take lower paid jobs under any circumstances whatsoever.
Unfortunately, the reality is real and so many I know or have met would take a second job if it meant 4 hours sleep and doing nothing else to bring home something for little one to eat because their situations are that desperate. It really is survival or naught for too many of us.
My father in law told a story about coming home on leave from the military. At the time he was considering signing for another 4 years. My wife was 3ish at the time. After his 1st night at home Carol asked her mom, “mommy is that man going to live with us now?”. That was the end of my father in laws military career.
😢 This hits home.
As a Dad myself, the sacrifices I made for my girls was a privileged and Id do it again. My family never lacked for anything...including my time with them. I gave up things that I liked and wanted to do, so I could do the things they liked and wanted to do. I proud to say my girls have grown to be amazing women and mothers.
It’s not always about the money. Sometimes the hardest decisions are sometimes choosing to stay home and doing without a mansion or tesla. Money is not the root of all evil, it’s the love of money that’s evil.
You are right..
Unfortunately understanding doesn't make the childhood less lonely especially when u really just need ur parents to be there for you. Majority of ppl don't regret not giving their family enough but they do regret no being with their kids more
But there is a reality of some jobs that do not afford such luxury. We made the best of the time we did have together.
@@davidrawley4461A Job is a choice and so are the hours and lifestyle. If it’s about having “things” vs having what you actually need, then priorities need to be looked at. We will never get our time back, never get to redo moments. Life is short and we can be taken away instantly. Be with those you love and make memories rather than be in a place where at the end of 60 hrs a week, you are still a number.
I agree. And her “understanding”, is likely just her convincing herself that it’s ok, so that she can cope. If she had cancer and was going to die the next day, but could live if her dad gave back all that extra money he made over the years, he’d gladly give it up. So why not recognize the importance of time together now vs later. The boat and fancy house can take a backseat to everything else.
@@TheNordicHunter that actually depends on the country, the abilities of the person, their surroundings and their needs. In my case I was born in Cuba communist country where you have nothing but hopelessness and hunger, my dad was like this men, he would be out of my life for weeks and months when he starting traveling out of the country. And from the bottom of my heart I do not resent that men one bit I at 35 know that I can trust him with anything and have his support, he gave me the life and opportunities he didn’t have and it cost him to lose as much as I did.
So while I understand your point and also acknowledge that not everyone is in the same position I would and this is just a suggestion ask for you to be less judgmental or be so sure of why people do what they do. I’m not a mom and idk if I’ll ever be one but I know that I wasn’t born with a book about how to be a daughter and I know my parents didn’t have the book of how to be parents either. There is nothing but appreciation in me for them, sometimes understanding goes beyond accepting sometimes understanding is using love to appreciate what we had instead of complaining for what we didn’t.
@@sosome5389 I’m sorry for what you went through and are still going through. It sucks. And it affects everyone differently. We only get 18 years or less with our kids, depending on how the child engages with the parent, so that time should be cherished. After they become adults, then we can work more hours to have nicer things to then enjoy occasional holidays or weekends doing fun strings and making memories. We get one chance to do things right in those 18 years, and there’s a lot of parents that have regrets. We are a product of our parents just like they were, so we can’t completely blame them, but we can do something about it. Make changes in ourselves, while forgiving them. Doesn’t mean forgetting. And we can choose to have a peaceful and loving conversation with them explaining our feelings and why we feel the way we do. It’s on them to respect what we have to say, but we can then try let it go and move on to hopefully make more good memories while we have the time. I missed years with my dad as an adult and he was basically not there for me as a child. We have a better relationship now, but that’s because I have to put in most of the effort unfortunately and it still hurts dealing with the past. Scare’s don’t always fade away. Thank you for being kind to me and I hope you can continue to work through your pain as well. Things will get better. Hope you have a wonderful day ❤️.
Many of us, we will never understand how much sacrifice men make every day. Just because mothers stay home with the children, it doesn't mean the other one doesn't. They are loving and providing for us differently.
I appreciate what this man is saying 🥰
So many parents do not get enough time with their kids. Especially during those critical times.
Theres always a chance to post a sniveling vid on youtube in a few yrs tho eh,.,.,.
Nobody ever lies on their deathbed wishing they’d spent more time at the office. I changed jobs to spend more time with my kid, I do not regret it one bit.
If I eat less will you stay home more 😭 pulled my heart strings man that’s so sweet
Agreed
And that dad STILL PACKED! Ruthless!!!
@@rachpie6559 Almost a criminal act imo 🥺
@@rachpie6559 I swear I really think it's rather toxic how he portrays it as if it was the right choice to just use it as a "teachable moment" to have put his career above his child telling him their need of closeness was not met. Something just gives me the vibe of it not being about them making ends meet but him going after higher goals.
Nothing wrong with a career but I don't understand and will never understand how people decide to put kids into thie world if they won't make time with them a priority. Career should come second to that imo regardless of gender. If you cna manage to have a career AND find the time to spend quality time with your family great! But if it has to be one or the other you can't make up for time with money. Your kids will be impacted for life if you're not around.
All luxury can't replace a husband. Nor A FATHER.
A Poor man can't even afford a woman 💀
A rich man man can afford money , Good Education, Wise advice, most happiest moments even he spend less time.... ❤️ THAT'S WHAT THE DIFFERENCE....
A RICH GUY IS ALSO POOR ONCE... ⁉️
Aaah coming from a person who always has enough money working at McDonald's??
Go ahead tell me you don't work at McDonald's or work at hotel's (yes plural) the hotel's you stay at with the excessive money you make?
You live in 2 income household 9-5?

Do you see the IGNORANCE of tge comment you made???
Yup not all of us have the options you do. The man in the video simply explained how he worked...Don't forget!!!😾 for his 👉family!!!
Oh wait i forget to mention.... your 👉phone. You know the one you conveniently used to make your comment on??.
The slave labor people want it back because you don't appreciate the hours and effort it took to help make it for you(sacrificing FAMILY TIME). They said at the very least give back the battery. Yup.

@@anbuselvan8309 thank you for sharing those words. You sir are correct.
That man had a woman at home that made him a baby, he had hoes on the road that needed him more
Most sweet and source words from a child “ If I eat less would you stay with me ? “ . It shows pure innocent love .
That's such a heart warning wholesome discussion between Father and daughter
Way to go!!! You are a great DAD !!! God bless you ...
It depends on the case. Mine prioritised time together and shared experiences. We were a bit tight financially but we have an incredible bond. My dad is now 85 and I do the same now that the roles are reversed.
Lovely 💕
Awesome
I 100% agree with you.
We can't have everything in this world..
I went to part time when I had my son who is disabled and my daughter who is a toddler. One day she asked me for some dresses and she has a closet full and I said do you want mommy to work more for a few more dresses or do you want mommy to spend more time with you? And she absolutely adored that she got to choose and said of course I want you with me! And it really opened her eyes. Materials stay on this world. Money comes and goes but love lasts forever.
"If i eat less will you stay at home more😭".she was so little she would never had understood that time...Years later she understands ❤
What a father figure should be. His absences were due to him providing for his family - not him abandoning his family. There’s a BIG difference. A real dad only chooses to leave his kids because he has to provide for them financially and carry out his duties to the family. A dead beat “dad” leaves his children because it’s the easy thing to do. Much respect to this dad. He has earned it!
She felt abandoned.
Gtfoh. There are plenty of jobs that gives a man the chance to be home and raise his kids. He's no different than child support
That dam near made me tear up when she said, : "If I ate less would you stay home more". Wow. For a child to say something like that.. smh
He miss the deeper emotional need of the child. He thought the daughter that love is conditional. Material things matter more than quality time. That her needs are not important and she should bury them n strive for financial gain. Problem is, we thrive for things / give importance to things that you cant take to your grave with u: no Earse behind a brinks trunk; only the family u neglect crying cause their time with you has expire and never get to experience of a busy person. Dad feels proud , the hole he left in her heart cant be filled- abandonment
It reminds me of that toon video that circulated Facebook a few years back, where the kid was looking to earn money to buy his fathers time.
He was absolutely right and did what he needed to do to keep a roof over their head. We can talk about emotional needs but she could also have ended up a homeless unfed child if that shift to coddle her didnt work out and they lost it all. But not one person in the comments actually gets the point; most parents have to sacrifice for their children to be happy.
@@jasonpgallery man...kids and lovingly...cut.
@@grennie46 no he didn’t. He thought her a valuable life lesson. The close bond and connection will still be there if he has done his parenting job right.
Life is not about money which comes and goes but once you lose someone they don't come back balance life you showing her that $$ was more important your kid was looking for you once time is gone you never get it back
Agreed-- nobody on their deathbed wishes they worked on on more assignment at work lol they wish they had given more time making memories
I can understand if he was in the military..I don't know who he is..but I see unresolved guilt
.
She sat him down first....she was probably trying to break the cycle...I did ..I made my son my priority...
It takes a supportive momma to keep the daughter close to her dad. The mom very easily could've turned the tables and made the daughter hate her dad for being gone so much.
Wtf? Why? He was a good husband😂
@@hershekissed burdening the mom with all the responsibility of caring for the daughter so he could 'provide' or more like work on his dreams and not take any responsibility of the home and child. Caring for the child is beyond paying for the roof and food
@@peaceout6359 were you there? Some dads don’t do a lot of talking. I doubt she was dating men like her father. You can learn a lot from just watching how he treats your mom. Duh.
@@peaceout6359 ps a man is supposed to provide, the mom nurture. You sound like you’re used to struggle love😂
@@peaceout6359 When man works long hours he is chasing his dreams. When mom takes care of the children she is slaving away.
International men's day, should be a bigger celebration💞Thank you. We see you, and apreciate you so much💞
That line!!!
DADDY IF I EAT LESS WILL YOU STAY HOME MORE..
Ripped my soul from my body and I can’t stop the tears from streaming down my face 💔
Same... 💔
She just rather have her dad then food, n he kept packing.
I know. That one line actually determines what I think of the Dad. It's not like she just asked him to spend more time
And he just kept on packing!! That was his opportunity to turn it all around, mind boggling stupidity.
Why? It’s not true
Children want your presence not your presents. No one ever said on their deathbed, "I wish I worked more" but many have said "I wish I spent more time with my family."
☝
Facts
Memories gonna last forever presents temporary
Lazy person will say that..Not really because of material stuff but contribution to family and society
Jordan Peterson makes a good debate in that topic
Dad is so honest and loving❤️. His daughter, too, was very understanding when she grew up. "If I eat less, will you stay home more" that brought tears in my eyes.
I was a stay at home/work from home Dad and it made all the difference. I volunteered so much at my daughters school even the staff thought I worked there. My is 27 now and still writes me the most beautiful letters about how much she loves and appreciates me. She told me I was the “perfect” man which clearly I’m not but it means a lot to me that she thinks so.
You’re blessed,Sir❤
I feel you on this I do the same thing and my four year old tells me every chance she gets she loves me...
❤❤❤ ❤ ❤
My dad was a marine and I used beg him to stay whenever we would pack for one of his long months-lengths trips. My mom asked me at some point to please stop doing that, that it made daddy sad.
I still have a lot of guilt and my heart hurts when I think about how much it hurt my dad hear me saying that, he was too trying to provide. I understood that, I appreciated that, I never loved him less but boy do I wish I have had more time with him when I was a kid. He missed pretty much every milestone. He would write me letters, call and give me all his attention when he was home but I was miserable when he wasn’t around.
I really really wish we would’ve had less but have him more.
It's always easy to say AFTER the fact. However if you would of had nothing because your father was home with you all day, today you would not be saying how great your life was because daddy was there.
@@rebeccacarter5048 Actually that’s far from our truth as a family. But I get your point. And I don’t think the expectations was a dad all day at home just on a regular basis. Having a traveling parent a lot of times means months of not seeing it and that is really detrimental to a kids development in many aspects.
Hello
He loved you more than life itself, he litterally gave his life up just so you could reach those milestones, uts hard for a military kids i know he didnt have the choice to unpack like this man, but know he missed you every second and that you and your mother were the thoughts that gave him strength every sexond of wvery day whilst he was walking through hell xx
@@rebeccacarter5048 how about balance ?
Finally someone tells the truth and not sugar coats reality.
Good example of a real man.
Wish they were all like him
Love you lots Sir.
RESPECT.
Heavy is the head that wears the Crown! More power to all the dads out there that sacrifice so much to provide for their families
🙌🏼
One of the best comments!
Thanks Dad
Oh please. Many ways to provide roof &food exists. It's only an excuse when you don't want to "stay" with children& wife. The reason was elsewhere. Nothing wrong with that. But assuming it is much better than trying to give him self good conscience. He don't fool no one but him self.
Fathers like this man could have done things differently, got a different job, he chose to cheat himself and his family instead.
I have full custody of my 2 teens now and my daughter thanks me everyday… zero help from any outsiders it’s just me and them here and boy it’s tough… it’s hard man… I want to give them more… my daughter will always tell me “dad thank you for not giving up on us and thank you for providing for us” she tells me all the time they both do… they will always know. Shout out to the ones that make it happen and cheers to the struggle… may it make us who we need to be.
You're a good man! Y'all are in my prayers brother.
It already has... it already has.
You are raising one special young lady. For her to see your work and sacrifice and to show gratitude is proof that you are one hell of a dad. Anytime it gets hard just remember that
We have to make sacrifices for our family, hard but necessary, Blessings
Everyone is praising you. Credit is where it's due. But no one mentioning how smart and sweet, caring your young daughter is. Godbless her too. She's still young and yet so mature and can see your situation.
I'm a working mom I have to leave my daughter for days for work. This brought me tears.
You are a warrior.
I love you mam.
Im a young man from germany, my mother does the same for my small sister and me.
Im so grateful, pleas be proud.
#Applause for the daughter! She understands! No entitlement at all! No "you chose work over us" or "you was always working & never spent time with me" BS. Just a mature understanding. Love that! It taught her how to sacrifice & make the hard decisions! #LoveIt
I am glad, I spend time with my daughter. than get a job that make me far away from my family with no regret.
My brother left his oil rig job, because he was never there for birthday or events at school. His wife got a part time job. They are so happy, now

@ymarrero23 'HAVING' to provide is different to 'CHOOSING' to chase the next 6-7 figures. Money is infinite, time isn't!
Fun Times= Precious memories🌹🎶🎶💯💥
Quality time spent with family becomes more and more important as we age. Sometimes it’s best to find a balance between “wants” vs “needs” and use the time we would have spent chasing “wants” to be with our family instead.
A valid point but in some countries even to provide the needs is a struggle so we end up moving from the families we love to provide them a better living . Not many people are away from their families by choice but forced by circumstances
I didn't have this in my life..but it hits my heart I wish I have it....thank you❤️
Good Dad. Smart daughter. Respect.
It all comes down to: when I needed my dad, he was there for me.
Wonderful! 💯🌹
And that does not commonly happen.
@@FigiMarie really?
@@joetolliver3359 It doesnt always away. out if work and out with friends drinking , never with us
My dad worked so much when I was little that even now I am seeking a father figure to love, appreciate & recognize me.
My dad was gone all the time, and the first time I called someone dad it was my uncle. My cousin got jealous and started biting and tearing at my face.
It's great to have a father on Earth, but we can always focus on the love, care and attention God says He has toward us, His beloved creation. All we need to know about it is in the holy Bible, but we must meditate on it to really grasp it.
People don't understand how this can mess you up
I never knew my father
and your selfish dumb ass can't even figure out how to be grateful. you're a jackass of a child

Broke my heart 💔

That showed that while you were busy providing for them your wife did an amazing job raising your daughter and maybe you gave her quality time while you are around too, and this how it should be.
Exactly 💯!!
Finally a practical video that is useful people on TH-cam 😊
A Grown Man Provides. Thats what he was born to do. There’s honor in the sacrifice. Men like this are good men.
Behind every "great dad" and an "understanding kid" is a fabulous mom.. her role is so understated sometimes.. a mom who compromises her work time to fill up for dad and who teaches the child to learn the best from everyone.. I'm sure the magic here is the mom..
How else would you explain a child to understand the dad not giving her time as a tough decision maker and not hate him for not prioritising her.. Kudos to all magical mamas out there!
🙌🏼
You know Daddy’s and Mommy’s have to work hard to provide proper care of their children, and yes it shows responsibility and care, but more important is the time we have with them to show love, manners, responsibility, and most important God’s law and love. To reflect how to honor God. Take them to church as a family and to show Gods love for them. Make God the head of your household. That’s how you raise a well adjusted family. It’s hard enough, so let God.❤️
You are a wise person. That's exactly what should be done. But parents today are least bothered.. God is out of the country,out of the house, out of the heart.. and have made way for the demons..and have no problems with their kids dancing with the devil..they would gladly dance along their way to hell.🤷
There is no God stop indoctrinating your children about something that there is no proof of. Religion causes more problems in the world than war.
Time is the only investment that you ll never recover! If for you it’s better to work rather than to be with his daughter it’s dad decision and you’ll never be able to share time with your kids because you was getting money! So wrong! That’s why families are taking apart!

Parents' Presence is the best Present that they can ever give their children. So be Present!
Real dad,thank God for Real dad!!!God bless you sir 🙏 🙌
I SALUTE THIS MAN FOR EXPLAINING EVERYTHING BOUT WHY HE IS ALWAYS BZ ..HE IS A REAL MAN , FATHER , HUSBAND .HE IS BEING TRUE , 100 💯 % BRAVOOÓOO , 🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️
My parents both work to provide shelter, clothing, and foods for the family. I never knew why they were never home then years later when i became a parent i understood. My parent were very disciplined and they discipline us kids so none of us grew up to be LAZY and we understood life. It was a great lesson they taught us I wish the new generations were a better parents.
My dad asked me when I graduated high school, “was I a good dad? Was in there enough?” I said absolutely. I have wonderful memories of going camping and going to the cabin when it was being built and for many years after that. He traveled for work, but not so much that he was absent.
Thanks for sharing!!
The fact he asked that question says a lot about him!
Today's summon was about sacrifice. The priest urged us to sacrifice for our families, so as to ensure things are right everyday. Thanks sir for sharing your story 😊
I left my son when he turned one year old and came home when he was almost eight.He don't understand how I work so hard for him....until he grows up to be a man....living me behind with tears....not knowing his whereabouts....hope one day...he'll come back and understand the reasons of my sacrifice.
Wherever you are my son...you're in my prayers and will patiently wait that one day....we'll meet again...🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are a great dad. God bless you, sir. You are a positive role model.🙏😇❤
Great?? Not even close, indeed this one so deceiving portrayed as good/great father
You are a lucky man to have an understanding and caring daughter. She could have been disrespectful and an addict. The mother did a great job too. 👏
Surely because at some point he was an understanding and caring dad too! People reap what they sow.

Or is she a lucky girl for having a hard working man who lives his family more than anything else in this world its what we do im an ex royal marine commando and two months after I left the RM I was in a courtroom taking cousterdy of my daughter because I wanted her to be and feel safe and loved I don't take any money off her mother at all I don't want it neither because I'm a man and she's my daughter my responsibility nobody else's
it was the mother that showed no resentment towards the dad that balanced the daughter out in her head.
Yea he could have stayed home more!!!! 😢
He is the verge of tears. Boy! The message is tough. 👏👏👏
This shows the thing that men aren't given credit for: their sacrifice. Working outside of the house isn't always an escape from the family. Sometimes it's immensely painful for that father. But he still does it... Thank you - to my dad.
The mother was a real one. She helped her daughter see the sacrifice of her dad.
so real
facts. we live in a world where its more than likely that the woman/ mother couldve easily spun that to take everything, and make the daughter hate him. i fear for it everyday. people shouldnt have to live with the fear of losing their children.
Sacrifice? Looks to me like he dodged being a parent.
@@TabbyQ.9563 people who live in 1st world country would never understand people who live in 3rd world country there's a difference that's why women in 3rd country are not privileged and entitled they know what their husband is doing the whole working hard jobs to provide for their own family their is no such things as equality we know our roles in the family everyone have to do their part including us sons/daughter women in 3rd country don't get the same wage as men because the work is very different except if you work in an office maybe that's the reason why women in the west are so entitled anyway weak times creates weak men hard times creates strong men
The mother worked hard too if he was gone all the time and it seems he did what was his dream instead of just for family while mom had to take full burden of the house and child
Kinda reminds me of the song, CATS IN THE CRADLE! "When you coming home Dad? I don't know when but we'll get together then. You know we'll have a good time then."
I cannot listen to that song without crying❤
Cycle
Never heard of this song. Who's the singer & how far back does it go? 🌷
That song does not cycle well
@@lakepzepichi5409 The Cats in the Cradle, by Harry Chapin, sung by Cat Stevens too. Really good version by Ugly Kid Joe as well.
You all are MEN. 100% RESPECT TO ALL OF YOU.
I seen in my daughter eyes...she is 1.5 year old..after 4 days of work i came to my home she hold me very tight..never done this before..i can feel what he saying now..❤
My Dad was the best! He showed me so much about life. My Dad adopted me when I was just 1 1/2 yrs. old. Our family was a blended family. When my mother met my Dad, she had me and he had two sons. When I was 6 yrs. old. My family sat me down and explained adoption to me. My Dad told me that anyone can have a child but he chose me to be his daughter. He made me feel so special and loved. I never forgot those words. I was chosen. Love is a choice and a sacrifice. My father never let me down and loved me even when I certainly didn't deserve it. I would not be who I am today without my Father. My Father, my hero, passed away Aug. 27, 2022. He was so brave. It was so hard to let go, but easy too because he suffered alot in his last years with COPD. I knew it was time for him to go to his forever home with Jesus, where there is no more suffering, pain and heartache. God created such a great man to be my father. I told my Dad God did good and gave me the best Dad heaven had. I praise God for taking such good care of me and my family. Our Creator's love is beyond understanding. How much more does God love his children than earthly dads. Oh!....Where would I be without the love, grace and mercy God has shown me. Daddy was my first love and he taught me the love of the heavenly father. Thank you God for Daddy, Ira Carroll Nichols, my hero ❤
This blessed my heart so much! Aloha and God bless from Hawaii!! 🙏🏾🤙🏾
❤❤ This was beautiful
Thank you for sharing your beautiful experience with your awesome dad 💗 You are definitely Blessed 💗✝️ Praying for your family & all families to be abundantly Blessed 👼💗
A real man. Takes care of his family no nonsense guy. Well done sir
Absolutely true. My Dad worked 12 hours a day, 7 days a week for years to allow us a college education with no loans, Thanks Dad & Mom.
i can't help but notice that Dad's jawline was superb.
Dad is the way he is because of deep unresolved issues he's got
It's funny you should say that? I also felt he has issues. His explanation to a 5 year old child was all about himself, and what HE does. I would have preferred less of "I"
@Felipe Valdez the thing about work and money is that one gets sucked in. You have some money, you change your life style, your car, house and the people you mix with. Now, to keep all these things up you need to keep working, even working more. It's a vicious circle. I have been there. Finally I have realised that money is so overrated. Now, I only work to get the basics, nothing fancy at all.
@@Random-xw1fg Exactly what I mean. And the importance he gives to money is a sign of being scarred by something.
@@Random-xw1fg Exactly buddy. Well done, spend more time with the ones you would die for.
@Felipe Valdez Absolutely. The moment of realisation happened to me through a friend of mine. She lives in a 9 bedroom house. Downstairs she has a massive living room, office, games room, dance room. She has 6 bathrooms and a huge ground surrounding the house. She lives alone. She only uses the kitchen, the smallest and most secluded bedroom for safety reasons and she uses a small room attached to the kitchen as her living space. Her life made me realise that whether one's house is huge or tiny we all have the same needs and will occupy the same space. I had bought my house with plans to move to a bigger one once I have more money.
After the realisation I decided I am not moving out from my small house unless practically necessary. I am not buying a new huge car. My car takes me from A to B and never ever took it to a mechanic except once in 7 years. I don't want to work hard for money. I love my work and I am very good at it but not for the sake of money anymore. I want money enough for my basic needs nothing else. It will be interesting to know your journey towards the same if you like to share. 🌷
My Dad showed me. God bless dads who do all they do not liking it to provide for those they love. Men are heroes and deserve our respect.
The daughter wanted his companionship more than the stuff he could provide. But she grew to see that differently as she grew up.
Her family were kept safe and happy. They’ve all worked together. Very lucky people.
Very unfortunate daughter of him, really breaks my heart when she said "if I eat less…"
This is why I got out of the military. Being a dad comes first and no job is worth losing that little amount of time you are given to make a difference in your kid's lives. You can always find a job that will allow you to be a father first and a worker second. Do not settle for missing out on the most important thing you will do in your life.
Sir,
You have yourself a wonderful daughter
My kids dad work so hard apparently.. He's kids do not see him at all... So to all the good dads that give their time to their kids.. Well done dads
This is why we women really need to realise, if you want a rich man dont expect him to be at home .
He wont, it can affect the kids too .
Think twice .
@@noneofyourbuiznessnope! I disagree. Thank you ☺️
some women are just ungrateful. yes you are ungrateful and a bad example for any child
Time is the only investment that you ll never recover! If for you it’s better to work rather than to be with his daughter it’s dad decision and you’ll never be able to share time with your kids because you was getting money! So wrong! That’s why families are taking apart!
Any chance you get huh?
Awwwwww, she would eat less just to have her daddy home a bit more very thoughtful & smart👍🏻🙏
Nice kid, some children may fail to understand that tough someone would ever do with the love of his family 👪
True testimony praises from childhood bless you and yours
That kid was raised right
I feel for your daughter, my father has to go away for a year to work, and at that time there's no technology like today, voice tapes and letters took forever to arrive,. He only have a month in a year for a vacation to be with us, by the time he retired we are all adults and my 2 older sisters are already married. Because of dreaming and providing for us he missed the point of living and enjoying us... After 5 years of retirement, he transitioned to the other side...It happened 22 years ago and still hurts whenever I remember him... That's why my youngest sister and I didn't allow it to happen to our children 🥲😥🤗😘 ENJOY EVERY MOMENT WITH YOUR FAMILY!!!♥️🤗♥️💋♥️🥰
Agree. Family is about being there learning, laughing, loving. Creating memories hugs, daily chats, vs. Daddy at work again
Yes absolutely . If can provide enough but not get greedy or go missing like this person then this job of nurturing your children being hands on is the best job and hardest. Easier is the way to go work and come home. That is a manchilds life.
I understand dad's ......most of them can't express... they go through it meekly... God bless them..
Such an amazing addy husband a totally package and wonderful daughter ..and such a great words and action ☺ bless ur family
I pray to the Lord that my kids feel this way when they're older I don't travel but I do what I can to provide.
Lol you are so funny! Now that it's time, make everything you can for them to feel close to you. They need you. You cannot count on hope. You have the choice and power NOW. Use it.
Sometimes, you adults are funny.
I think my dad thought like you when I was a child. But unfortunately it didn't turn on his favor *+* now I'm 22 years old with wounds that will never/ hardly heal ! ☺️✌️
👍
Great man, he did what was necessary to take care of his family.. At that young age she wanted to sacrifice too," its very touching moment father and daughter"❤
Hence there is another good and understanding woman in the world... Thanks to good father n provider
I'm not crying, you're crying.
You're damn fucking right I am 😭
Yep and my daughter always cries everytime I leave for travel (work)
😢Fact. Thank you. 👉💖👈
Better provide love and time than material things that will become trash. Memories are for ever.
This touched me. My husband is working out of state to provide for me and my kids. He is sacrificing everything for us. My kids are 8 and 10 and they don't understand yet. It's hard but it's for the best. I pray they see it one day.
God bless this loving daughter
I appreciate that his daughter was so respectful and understanding. At the same time, I'm so grateful for the modest life that my husband and I have. We are not rich, but we spend so much time together. My husband is a stay-at-home dad and I work a job with good hours that supports my whole family. We own our own home and two paid for cars. We can't afford vacations or nice clothes, but we have a ton of time together. I feel very blessed.
Even more important a totally righteous man who never ever did a bad thing in his life chose to die a torturous horrible death in our stead so we could have eternal life in paradise…❤
Adolescent comment.
This is not about your personal religious beliefs.
It’s totally related he is our spiritual father and he gave the greatest gift of all. The good Shepard gives his life for his sheep.
Who
@@darreldavis1461 Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
Great Point.
😢😢😢😢 He’s a good man.
Another side of the medal: dad that calls his children jerks and always threatens them... so much pain
God bless all the good fathers❤
there are a lot of bad peoples in the world
but, there is not a single bad father
no matter what i do i'd never hear something of gratitude like that from my kids. You are blessed.
This guy saying the truth 😂
Well said. This brought tears to my eyes. My own Dad made many sacrifices for my Mom & our family. He took great care of us!! That's why I make sure I drive out of state regularly to visit & spend time with him....just because I love & appreciate him!!❤️❤️🙏🏾
