Family Relations Class Week #13

  Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s blog post on my family relations class.  I hope that you’ll be able to learn something new from my blog post today just as I learned new things from my family relations class this past week.

Last week I spent a great deal talking about communication and how we can utilize the five secrets of effective communication. This week I would like to talk about fathers and the many reasons they are very important to their children.
