“The Arts are fundamental resources through which the world is viewed, meaning is created, and the mind developed. To neglect the contribution of the Arts in education, either through inadequate time, resources, or poorly trained teachers, is to deny children access to one of the most stunning aspects of their culture and one of the most potent means for developing their minds.” WorldMindMeanChildrenArtCultureTeacherResourcesAspectFundamentalsDenyAccessDevelopingContributionNeglectInadequateStunning Author:Elliot W.

“When a dad admits he is wrong or asks for help, he allows the child to see him- or herself as adequate even when she or he is also wrong. It encourages children to make suggestions and, therefore, to discover their creativity because they have a chance of making a contribution.” ChildrenHelpingAsksChanceCreativityDadContributionSuggestionsAdequate Author:Warren Farrell
“It is important for a father who feels pushed away [by the mom] to say, in effect, When you do that, I feel unwanted as a father, or I feel my rough-housing is not bad parenting; it's my contribution to helping our child take risks.

Men's contribution, made at night, need not be lost in the dark.” MenNeedsChildrenMadeReasonNightLostHoursLosesDarkSleepSupportWifeMarriedDiscriminationUncomfortableContributionWillingnessDesirableMarried Man Author:Warren Farrell
