Dad’s aren't hard to please: they just want to be proud of you, and they want your presence. It also doesn't hurt to be successful enough to view Dick Lovett's collection of used Aston Martin for sale - he’d love that as a gift! So, let’s take a look at five solid ways that you can ensure that your Dad is a happy one!
- Dads like to know you’ve remembered him. If you’re gallivanting around the globe, you should be able to remember birthdays and Father’s Day. If you know, you’re not going to be anywhere with an internet connection, pre-book things to arrive on his day, and he will know you thought of him.
- The good thing about being around to see your Dad often is that you can take him out and meet up on special days out. However, shine a light on the days that aren’t so special, but you want to see him anyway. For example, take him out for lunch or go shopping together. If you had a tradition of going to ball games as a child, take him to ball games now, too.
- Does your Dad live alone? Take him shopping! Go with him to buy new clothes and help him out with the food shopping. Even if he's not old and infirm, you can still stock his kitchen and do something beautiful for him!
- Your Dad is likely to be a hard worker and has been for many years. Why not join him at work and help out? Being able to take care of things like that can not only give you a chance to spend time together, but it can allow you to do something useful with your time. If he’s at work and you can get some of the house chores done to help your Mum, all the better!
- Don't forget to share your life. You are busy, you have a family, and you are doing your thing, but that doesn't mean that he doesn't warrant a phone call from time to time. He spent some of his best years making sure that you knew how to eat with a spoon - so why not pick up the phone a few times a week and see how he’s doing? Share what you’re up to, go to him for sage advice, and make him aware of your life.
