Some quotations about fathering, or parenting, or just life, that I’ve found useful for meditation.
- ‘Children watch their parents live their lives. If they like what they see, if it makes sense to them, they will live their lives that way too’. - Colin Powell
- ‘To refuse to give [our children] what matters to us out of a misplaced concern for their individual autonomy is to leave them with a vacuum at the centre of their lives that, will soon be filled with what others give them’. - Tom Smail
