Dads matter. When it comes to child development we are still only beginning to understand the long term impacts of our early experiences. But a growing body of evidence suggests that our experiences during early childhood not only wire the brain for success but also powerfully shape our adult... health. And dads play an important role here. One recent study looked at the body’s stress response systems and found that children with involved fathers as infants measured lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol throughout each day some thirty years later. The same researchers found that the quantity of fathers’ involvement also significantly reduced the amount of sons’ illicit drug and tobacco use across the 20s. For these and a whole list of other reasons, dads make a difference. And today we celebrate them. Here’s a video I’ve been saving for Fathers Day from doting first-time dad Liam Chennells. When a friend messaged him to ask about life as a new dad, he created this video in response. As Liam notes in closing, “There’s nothing better.” And that’s true for them both. Here’s wishing a happy Fathers Day to all who hold the title of dad.show more

I love macho manly man dads who just melt like butter for their little ones.

Amen and thank you for posting this. I wrote about this exact issue this week for Father’s Day:

This breaks my heart in a thousand pieces. My daughters father would nót bé a father. He would get frustrated and very angry about responsibilities and having to spend time with her. This led to us splitting up. He’s sees her now and then. Always on his terms.

I had the BEST dad. He celebrated my intelligence & encouraged my in my studies/career. He talked to me about principles & encouraged me to fight for them. He taught me how to change a tire, how to be kind/generous, & how to stand up for myself, b/c he ❤️ me. I miss him.

Kind dads matter. Loving dads matter. Abusive dads destroy.

My mum tells me that as a very young baby I would hear my dads footsteps as he came home from work and get all exited. I miss my dad so much even after 27 years and I still have things I want to tell him about.

Happy Father’s Day to the real dads. Drizzy 🫶🏽🐐 The ones who protect, lead, and never play when it comes to kids. Fathers who know that being a dad isn’t just a title—it’s a responsibility. Father day is not about those who claiming the role, then use their platform to desensitize the world to harming children, while throwing baseless labels at other fathers. Real dads don’t play with that. Real dads don’t make jokes out of kids pain. Some of y’all weaponize fatherhood for bars, calling other men predators while normalizing child abuse like it’s art. You can’t claim “good dad” & desensitize the world at the same time. You can’t weaponize fatherhood and still call yourself a good one. You either stand for kids—or you stand in the way. Pick a side.

Your baby’s brain isn’t the only one that’s developing. I’ve written a good bit about the brain development of newborns and how to stimulate it. But today I want to talk about the developing brains of parents - which research suggests also change concurrent with pregnancy and childbirth. Changes in adult brains thought to facilitate sensitive caregiving have been measured in both mothers and fathers. In mothers, distinct changes in the cerebral cortex (including regions linked to thinking about others minds) and subcortex (linked with emotion and motivation) have been measured - so much so that in a study conducted by Spanish researchers, an algorithm was able to readily distinguish between the brains of childless women and those of new mothers. Dads’ brains change too, with fathers demonstrating changes in regions of the cortex that contribute to visual processing, attention, and empathy toward the baby. Both are examples of what neuroscientists call experience dependent neuroplasticity (changes in the structure of the brain associated with specific life experiences). Here’s a lovely example of “Dad Brain” on display. If you can watch it to the end without tearing up you’re doing better than me. Dads will know the feeling. This beautiful video was shared to IG by iamtayloso.

Secure attachment during infancy lays the foundation for our lifelong mental and physical health. As I wind down this week’s series on infant/toddler attachment, I wanted to conclude with a few final words about why it matters so much. Obviously, strong relational connections between parents and children are beneficial in and of themselves. But there’s more to it than that. Attachment grounds and shapes our long-term mental health as well as our ability to enter into positive relationships with others. You see, children who are securely attached tend to be just that: Secure. This allows them to navigate the world independently, with confidence in themselves and their abilities. It almost seems contradictory that independence would spring from dependence. But it most surely does. The more love and care children receive during their earliest months and years and the more attentively and predictably their needs are met by treasured loved ones, the more they experience the world as safe place. And this is a gift to both the brain and the body. When the human body is not flooded daily with stress hormones and when anxiety occurs - not as a constant state - but more occasionally in response to life’s challenges, not only are we better prepared to deal with it - but our bodies don’t bear the long-term burden of a constant stress response. This is a fascinating area of early development that we are still only beginning to fully understand, but suffice it to say that positive early experiences - both in the home and in conjunction with high quality early education and care programs- are increasingly linked to lifelong health. This brain-body connection has huge implications not only for individual children, but for our public policy. A tweet is hardly the place to unpack this conversation in full, but know that my new book, The Daycare Myth (which can be ordered from the link in my bio) explores in detail the disconnect between what we know about the science of early development and how it is enacted (or, more frequently, not enacted) in our public policy. The costs - both developmentally and economically - are astronomical. And not only to individuals, but to taxpayers - who would be far better served by making small investments in getting things right in the first place than paying for the results of our inaction across the lifespan. It all begins with attachment. Thanks for following along this week! ——— This lovely video - which, to be clear, is NOT an illustration of insecure attachment - was shared to IG by olliejamesfaulds.

Imprisoned fathers at Angola Prison spend Father's Day outside of prison with their sons, thanks to Christian organization 'God Behind Bars.' For some fathers, it was the first time they had ever spent a whole day with their sons. 62 boys got to fish, play sports, and BBQ with their dads, many for the first time. "Each dad wrote his son a personal letter and handed him a Bible to take home. Words of love, apology, hope, faith, and legacy were shared face to face..." the organization said. Awesome.

Fathers protect their children, and children give their fathers strength. A father is a model of strength. He is responsible for his family and for the well-being and safety of his children. He supports them and guides them as they grow. And when hard times come, he steps up to defend the peace of his family. Today, many children are waiting at home for their fathers who are defending Ukraine. The support of children is the most important source of strength for fathers at war. Tens of thousands of fathers took up arms to protect their families. Among them are those who have not been able to embrace their own children for five years now, held in Russian captivity.

"If we can create a society which sees the child within every adult – and the adult within every child - we will finally start to change it for the better." We want to make the link between the skills we develop in early childhood and the core foundations that set us up for life and help us to thrive as adults. To help give social and emotional skills the greater priority they deserve, The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood has conducted a first-of-its-kind global listening exercise, involving experts from 21 countries around the world, to catalogue and identify the skills in this area that matter most throughout our lives. The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood has undertaken work to find a common bridge and set of core skills that can apply equally to children and adults, so we can bring people together with a common language and vision to drive action at every level – protecting and strengthening these skills for current and future generations across the whole of society. Through this exercise we found consensus around a set of skills that we develop and nurture during early childhood, but that continue to be enhanced and refined as we grow into adults. They relate to knowing ourselves, managing our emotions, focusing our thoughts, communicating with others, nurturing our relationships, and exploring the world. These are the skills that lay the foundations for our positive future mental health and resilience throughout our lives. Healthy development of these core skills is not inevitable – they must be nurtured from our earliest moments of life. The foundations for these skills are laid in early childhood, between pregnancy and the age of five, which is why those earliest years represent such a golden opportunity to make a difference right from the start. But our social and emotional growth continues throughout our lifetime, and change is always possible. #ShapingUs

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers out there. I am grateful for the gift of fatherhood and for every man who wakes up each day trying to do right by his children. None of us is perfect, but our children do not need perfection. They need our love, our time, our guidance, and our presence. Life can be difficult, and sometimes the responsibilities of fatherhood can feel overwhelming. Even so, walking away from our children should never be an option. Long after the money is spent and the gifts are forgotten, our children will remember whether we were there for them. Let us keep showing up. Let us keep supporting our children and respecting and caring for their mothers. Let us keep doing the little things that make a big difference in a child's life: listening, encouraging, teaching, protecting, and loving. Fatherhood is one of God's greatest callings. The fact that a child can look at us and call us "Dad" is both a blessing and a responsibility. May we never take it for granted. To all fathers doing their best, especially those making sacrifices that no one sees, thank you. May God give us the wisdom, strength, and patience to raise our children well.

The love you show your children not only sets them up for a lifetime of success, but a lifetime of positive mental and physical health. But first, can we talk for a moment about this little one, shown here on the week of his third birthday, who is waiting patiently - but with eager anticipation - for the best part of his day: the moment his family will be reunited as a unit when his father comes home from work. Watch this video and you’ll see that the tremendous affection he has for his parents is matched only by the affection they have for him. I’ve written extensively here about attachment - the deep and trusting bond ideally developed between parents and children during the earliest period of life. This attachment undergirds our positive mental health for a lifetime. But did you know that a growing body of research also links parental affection to our adult physical health, reducing the body’s allostatic load (a measure of health risks - including blood pressure, heart rate, stress hormones, cholesterol, waist circumference, inflammation and blood-sugar regulation - associated with negative cardiac health events.) It’s funny: While early childhood lasts only a short period of time when considered against the lifespan, its effects last a lifetime. You’ll never regret the time you dedicate to showing affection to your little ones. This fantastic video was shared to TT by moriahnastasi.

249 years ago, our Founding Fathers laid the foundation for our democratic republic, establishing a first of its kind country that cherishes freedom and liberty for all Americans. They sought to create a government that was limited in size and power – a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. As we gather with friends and family to celebrate this Independence Day, let us remember the sacrifices of those, past and present, who defend our God-given freedoms enshrined in our Constitution, and re-commit ourselves to upholding the foundational principles that make America great!

Had to tap back in to all my guys out there who - like me - no longer have our fathers to say Happy Father’s Day to. My old man died suddenly a few years ago. Unfortunately, we got in a fight about a month earlier and I never reconciled with him or even had a chance to say goodbye. So for me, every Father’s Day has become very tricky because there’s a lot pain. But every Father’s Day is also one of my greatest days because I have three amazing daughters who tell me, I love you and Happy Fathers Day. To my guys out there, if your old man is still around - consider it a blessing. Even if you and your dad are working thru some complicated shit. I’ve been there and I understand. But do your best to reconcile and get that drama behind you and get right with your dad. It’s important. Because the alternative is regret and I don’t want that for you. Happy Fathers Day. We’re all lucky boys. “I’ll take care of it”

David Friedberg: The Founding Fathers would be really saddened at the state of America and the reliance on government for handouts and control “You know, we read this excerpt from these two Thomas Jefferson letters and you can read a lot of these, just ask Gemini to tell you about some of the things that the Founding Fathers wrote.” “And if you spend time with them and translate them into modern English … there is so much of the principles of the founding fathers that are lost in how we are kind of devolving into this organizational system where the government is, everything in our lives, everything in our country.” “The individual liberties are being taken from us.” “And I don't mean taken from us in a sense that they're being seized.” “We're voting for a government that dictates our lives, that controls what we eat, how we eat, how we live, how we get paid, our checks.” “I think the majority of Americans today live on checks from the government through the government, and I think that the Founding Fathers would have been really saddened at the state.”

I’ve been a soldier for over 21 years, and currently serve as a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army Reserve. I’ve had the privilege of serving alongside countless great Americans, all of us willing to lay down our lives for the country we love. The best way for us to honor our veterans, not just on #VeteransDay, but every day, is to make sure that our men and women in uniform are only sent into harms’ way as a last resort when all diplomatic measures have been exhausted, and actually take care of them and their families, if and when they return home. This is a speech I gave many years ago at Punchbowl National Cemetery of the Pacific — these words still ring true today.

Q: Where is being told you look like a garbage truck a sincere form of flattery? A: In the best and most important job ever. In honor of Labor Day, I want to take a moment to uplift our nation’s early childhood educators. If you take anything away from my posts at all, let it be this: the years of early childhood are uniquely consequential. The period from prenatal to five is when the fundamental architecture of the brain is wired, ideally setting children on the path to longterm success in school and life. But we have a giant mismatch between the science and our public policy when it comes to how we support and compensate our young children’s teachers. Did you know that the median wage for preschool teachers (in child care settings) is only $13.22 an hour - less than we pay most fast food employees? Teachers who work with young children in public school settings do a little better, but still worse than their peers working with older students. This is, in part, because we persistently fail to recognize what I’ve tried to use my timeline to help illustrate: that learning begins LONG before children enter kindergarten. If we want to maximize brain development - and minimize the long term costs to society caused by our failure to do so - we simply must focus on the supports needed by adults, both in and out of the home, who do this hard, but joyful work. Put simply, our nation’s early childhood workforce deserves better. And our children need them to be trained and compensated like the literal brain builders they are. On this Labor Day, I thank early childhood educators. And hope you’ll do the same. This video offers just a quick glimpse of the joy of working with preschoolers. What else is entirely green and AMAZING? A garbage truck, that’s what! Thank you for the work you do, Ms. Glenna. (🎥 glennacolleen on TT)

Q: Where is being told you look like a garbage truck a sincere form of flattery? A: In the best and most important job ever. In honor of Labor Day, I want to take a moment to uplift our nation’s early childhood educators. If you take anything away from my posts at all, let it be this: the years of early childhood are uniquely consequential. The period from prenatal to five is when the fundamental architecture of the brain is wired, ideally setting children on the path to longterm success in school and life. But we have a giant mismatch between the science and our public policy when it comes to how we support and compensate our young children’s teachers. Did you know that the median wage for preschool teachers (in child care settings) is only $13.22 an hour - less than we pay most fast food employees?

Today we laid to rest a true hero, a legend and one of the greatest men in my life. Thank you everyone who supported our work for the elders, to the communities and families that accepted us as family. I was gifted the title of honorary pallbearer as we celebrated dad.

"We remember the blessings of God and the gift of freedom. We need also to remember the responsibility that comes as a result. A nation is not held together by prosperity alone, but by truth, virtue, and the character of its people." . The real story of America has always been about God. As America marks 250 years, this is a moment to remember, not just celebrate. It is a time to thank God for His blessings, reflect on the spiritual foundations of our nation, and return to His Word as the authority for our lives and our future. The hope of a nation is not found in prosperity alone, but in truth, virtue, prayer, and the character of its people. . Celebrating 250 Years #4thOfJuly #America250 #IndependenceDay
