When you’re in pursuit of your dream home, you can often feel as if you have to wait until it comes on the market, or keep on moving until you find it. But that doesn’t always have to be the case. Okay, so the place you’re in now isn’t perfect, but it doesn’t always have to be. In fact, you may find that if it has potential, you’ll get as close as you can to your dream home by just staying put for now. This can often be a more cost-effective way of loving where you live too. You may also find that if you’re able to work on where you are now, you’ll add value, which gives you more money to move with at some point in the future should you choose. So let’s see how you can do that.
How did you spend your time when you were a child? Did you play in the garden, climb trees, build sandcastles at the beach, read books, and let your imagination create worlds of magic and intrigue when you were playing with your toys?

Now, the next question; how does your child spend their time? Is it by doing the same kinds of eternal activities described above, or do they spend a large chunk of their time (if not all of it) glued to a screen, either watching TV, Googling the best mattresses of 2018, or immersed in video games?

The question may seem a bit irrelevant at first, but rest assured; there are some very good reasons why you should consider taking a more low-tech approach to parenting.

"Anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a good daddy."


Who we are right now is because of our parents. They are the ones that help shape our future. And of the most critical influence in our childhood was a father.  While any man can father a child, but there is a more important role of being a father in a child’s life. A father is someone who would teach us the game of life and how to play it right.

But not all dads share the same parenting style and even personalities. Studies show that modern dads can be categorized into three namely a Provider, Super-Sub/Proud and Career/Workaholic dad. Despite the differences, we know the fact that a father will do everything for the sake of his family. Just like my husband, who chose to work overseas to provide excellent education, food and the things his daughter needs. His sacrifice trading loneliness working far abroad in the hope of bringing a brighter future to our family is the most selfless decision he ever made.  I know how unmeasurable those tears of sadness he's hiding behind those smiles we see as we talk through video chat. A father can be far from perfect, but as a parent, he'll do many things for the sake of his child.
