Diary of Fatherhood

About Diary of Fatherhood

Hello! Welcome to my Diary of Fatherhood! My name is Joseph Oche. My wife, Patience, and I are blessed with three children. Occasionally, I’m also blessed to be a father figure to somebody. I love being a father and welcome its challenges cheerfully. Dairy of Fatherhood is a reflective journal of some of my many lightbulb moments in the journey, birthed from my hobby of thoughtful writing. It is hinged upon open, honest, humorous, and safe communication within our family, as well as on my intentional involvement in the lives of my children. May sharing my experiences inspire you!

   Boys Can't Hit Girls.

   As my family and I were walking from the parking lot into the church, I reminded Ofu, “Hey, Papi, please remember to remove your hat when we enter the church.” Then he blotted, “But why?” Me: “Men and boys don’t wear hats in the church.” Ofu: “I want to know why.” Me: “It’s a mark of respect for God as we worship Him. It’s like how we remove our caps when we sing the national anthem.” Ofu: “Ooo! Why is it that boys have to be the ones giving up everything? Boys can’t wear hats in the church. Boys can’t hit girls, yet they hit boys all the time.” Me: “Oh no. We can’t hit girls. You’re right. We walk away. Let’s talk about this when we get out of church. Ok?” Ofu’s concern validates a question that I have been pondering. The question is: “Do denigrating men contribute to women’s empowerment?” Please click here (https://diaryoffatherhood.org/boys-cant-hit-girls/) to read the full story.
