“My priority as a father should always remain first. My kids look to me as their example. Every decision I make and everything that I do always has to come back to the question, "Does this make me a better father?" "Will my kids benefit from this?" It's no longer just about me…but about my kids. My perspective in life has changed.” ShouldFirstsLooksDoeKidsFatherDecisionExampleChangedPerspectiveBenefitsPrioritiesLife Has Changed Author:Dwyane Wade

“When a destitute mother starts earning an income, her dreams of success invariably center around her children. A woman's second priority is the household. She wants to buy utensils, build a stronger roof, or find a bed for herself and her family. A man has an entirely different set of priorities. When a destitute father earns extra income, he focuses more attention on himself. Thus money entering a household through a woman brings more benefits to the family as a whole.” MenWantChildrenDifferentWholeDreamMotherFatherAttentionBedBenefitsStrongerPrioritiesIncomeExtrasHouseholdRoofEarningEnteringDestituteUtensils Author:Muhammad Yunus
