"For me, fatherhood is a journey filled with both joy and responsibility. One of the biggest positives of being a father is the sense of purpose it gives me. Watching my children grow and knowing that I play a role in shaping their lives makes me proud. Being present father and building a strong, loving bond with them is something I truly value.
Although it has not been easy , I have faced challenges such as balancing responsibilities, managing stress, and understanding my children’s needs. There are moments where patience is not easy, and communication can be difficult.
The SINOVUYO program that have been part of for many years has helped me a lot in becoming a better father. It has taught me positive parenting skills, especially how to manage my emotions and respond calmly instead of reacting out of anger. I have also learned how important it is to spend quality time with my children (which is one of my favorite sessions in the program) it help me to listen to them, and support them with love and encouragement.
As a SINOVUYO trainer, it has been powerful to not only facilitate these skills but to apply them in my own life. It has shown me how effective positive parenting can be when practiced consistently. At the same time, I have learned that it is not always easy to follow through with everything I put out there. There are still moments where I am challenged, but the program has given me the tools to reflect, correct myself, and keep improving." - Sipho Syfo Mdletshe
