There are a lot of qualities a person looks for in the perfect husband, and for those of us who want to have children at some point, that entails being fairly certain they'll be a good dad when the time comes. Although there's no certain way of telling how any one of us will be as a parent, there are a few tell-tale traits and tendencies that translate to the skills one needs to be a parent — specifically, a great one. If your partner has some of the following 20 qualities, he'll be the World's Greatest Dad straight from the moment that second line shows up on the pregnancy test. And if you're curious about how a woman in your life, maybe yourself, will be as a mom, check out these signs a person will be a great mama. 1 He’s responsible. Responsibility is one of the biggest aspects of parenting, so if he's able to keep a schedule straight, can keep track of his belongings at all times, and knows how to help take care of the house when toys explode all over your life, he should be all set. 1 / 20 2 He’s patient. A patient man will be the dad who lets his child do things at their own pace, giving them the room to explore and learn in their own way. He'll keep at the things he's not great at, he won't get upset when you take out your exhaustion on him, and while you're pregnant, he'll indulge you when you have an impossible food craving at 3 2 / 20 3 He’s observant. Of the world, of you, of the little things. If he notices all of the things both big and small, he'll have the awareness to know when you need help if your child needs something, if there's a household chore that needs to get done, and so much more. 3 / 20 4 He’s understanding. You can trust your understanding partner with all of your feelings and emotions and know that he'll be understanding no matter what. Being empathetic is huge when it comes to raising kids — it'll mean he can put himself in his child's shoes and try his best to understand where they're coming from no matter their age or the situation. 4 / 20 5 He loves dad jokes. This one doesn't need an explanation, nor is it a must-have quality, but any guy who loves dad jokes before becoming a dad is moving in the right dare we say, inevitable? direction. 5 / 20 6 He has his sh*t together. He knows what he's doing with his life and mostly, if not all the way, has his ducks in a row. A guy who can handle those typical life challenges is ready to be faced with the struggles of parenting and will be able to keep his sh*t together in this new stage of life as well. 6 / 20 7 He has a strong stomach. Parents have to deal with a lot of gross sh*t. If your husband has held your hair back a time or two during a bout of the flu or after a particularly boozy night, doesn't faint at the sight of blood, and can stand strong smells, he should be good to go. 7 / 20 8 He loves to have fun. There aren't too many people out there who don't love to have a good time, but a partner who especially loves having fun and can see the fun in any situation is going to be the dad who can entertain his kids no matter where they are, and who will create fun activities and adventures for his kids that they'll remember fondly. 8 / 20 9 He’s affectionate. A man who isn't afraid to show his love will be the dad who snuggles his kids, hugs them often, and openly shares his loving feelings towards his them. 9 / 20 10 He’s goofy. Dads are the goofiest guys on the planet aside from grandpas, maybe. If your partner cracks you up on the regular, chances are he'll be trying to get constant laughs out of your kids, who will find him as humorous as you do. 10 / 20 11 He’s sensitive to your needs. He can tell when you need space, a break, or a hug without even having to ask, and when you have children, he'll be able to do the same for them and for a new, sleep-deprived version of you. 11 / 20 12 He likes — or at least offers — to cook. No matter how you split parenting duties between the two of you, having a husband who's competent in the kitchen at least enough to make classic kid foods like grilled cheese and chicken nuggets means that mealtimes won't always fall on you or your favorite takeout location in a pinch. 12 / 20 13 He handles stress well. Even if you're stressed to your breaking point, he's cool and collected, always. He knows how to compartmentalize his stress without getting overwhelmed or upset, which will be huge when you're attempting to figure out how to care for a newborn, and later when you have a testy toddler running around the house. 13 / 20 14 He enjoys quality time with you at home. If your guy can hang around the house without getting stir crazy, or better yet, prefers to do so, that's a sure sign he'll be ready to spend a ton of nights in once you become parents and don't have the energy to go out, let alone make it to the couch to watch TV before nodding off. 14 / 20 15 He’s protective when he needs to be. If he's protective enough to look out for his family's wellbeing and keep them out of trouble, but not so protective it's obsessive, he's going to do just fine as a dad. Parenting is a huge balance of knowing when to help and when to let go. 15 / 20 16 He’s handy. Whether he's fixing a doorknob, screwing in the handle of a pot, or putting up fencing in the backyard, chances are he'll have no issues when it comes to fixing broken toys, building IKEA baby furniture, and the entire house. 16 / 20 17 He talks about the tough stuff openly. Not one to clam up, a good dad is the partner who you know can address the big topics without shying away or making things awkward. This quality will definitely help when it's time to talk about sex, sickness or death, and world issues. 17 / 20 18 He has a good relationship with his parents. Although not essential, as everyone comes from different types of family backgrounds, seeing a man engage in healthy relationships with his parents is just a bonus. 18 / 20 19 He loves you, and shows it. One of the things your kids will remember when they're older is your relationship with your partner, which will likely play a part in how they view their own relationships. Seeing showings of love between their parents will set the tone for how they approach love in all its forms. 19 / 20 20 He genuinely wants to be a dad. Simple as that. If he wants to be a dad, he'll do so to the best of his abilities. 20 / 20 People are not cut and dry. Everyone behaves differently in a relationship, and it can often be difficult to attribute certain characteristics to life I have personally found that strong family ties inspire a unique kind of relationship conduct that extends past the family circle. There’s something special about being with a family When the going gets tough, he won’t get guy who is very close to his family understands commitment at a deeper level. If you undergo hardship in your relationship, he isn’t one to just call it quits and understands that relationships aren’t always easy because he has continued to maintain a strong one with his family throughout his whole life. He knows how to compromise, and sees the bigger He’s supportive of you and what you love, even if he doesn’t enjoy it close to one’s family means attending loads of soccer games, family reunions, dance recitals, graduations and weddings you may not necessarily want to be was always expected of him that he supports and appreciates things that are important to the people he loves. That’s something a family guy carries on with His mom taught him how to respect is a learned trait. A man that loves, listens to and respects his mother for the strong and caring woman that she is, will treat the women in his life will carry those positive values that his mother continues to instill inside of him into his future He loves to spend time with your family, family people make a good match for this reason. If you value time with your family and would sometimes rather spend a night out with your parents than with a bunch of friends, it’s nice to be with someone who understands that and also enjoys will take on dorky family events and celebrations like a complete champ, and you’ll love him for He’s good with everyone wants children, and I understand that. However, being comfortable and playful with children is a positive trait for more reasons than just the prospect of future are innocent and yet complex little humans. Being good with kids means having patience, creativity, kindness and a good bit of kid still left in your heart. It’s good to have a man like He keeps his place a lot of importance around doing what you say you are going to do. If you said you’d be at your little sister’s gymnastics meet, you sure as hell better be you said you would come home for Christmas, you couldn’t even think about backing out. A family man doesn’t make promises he can’t keep, and he also commits to the ones that he does You get to have a second is nothing like forming a strong bond with another family. Family love is a special kind of love, and if you are lucky enough to experience that outside of your own family, it is quite the gift. He will want to welcome you in, and include you in that very important aspect of his He’s appreciative of you and your your family means appreciating them and appreciating the value of the relationships you have created through that easier for him to value other people and what they bring to his life because he’s had the same group of awesome people bringing wonderful things to him since has seen the grave effects his human relationships have had on his life, and therefore he values all of his friendships and relationships9. He’s family who really loves you, will make you feel special and incredible for who you are. If your family believes in you, often you do too. Confidence levels obviously vary extensively, but generally if a man has a really close relationship with his family, he has been raised to have a high level of self-worth and to believe in reflects very positively on a relationship, and will make an enormous difference in the He trusts and betrayal are complex situations that often start in the family. Prior relationship infidelities can also ruin a man’s ability to trust a in my personal experience, I have found that men who have had families that have been there for them throughout their whole lives, have an easier time trusting other people in general. He believes in the larger picture and depth of your relationship, and trusts that you respect him the way he respects He’s a ton of around a bunch of family all of the time often means a wild array of funny stories and picking on each other. Guys from strong families know how to laugh at themselves and make others laugh as are happy with anything, from a raging night of board games to drunken cook-out He’s good at communicating with talk, and communication is one of the strongest qualities of a good and close family. A man who comes from that kind of environment knows how to voice his opinions and feelings to you with effective been sharing his thoughts his whole life. Communicating with you during times of duress, or even on a day-to-day basis, is something that comes naturally for He knows how to be a aren’t all about romanticism and passion. Often the entire foundation of a relationship is a strong friendship, and that is also the foundation of a strong is about listening, laughing and making the best of the time that you have with each other. Friends and families improvise, and have fun doing the most simple of tasks make inside jokes, set up forts in the living room and make up ridiculous games for long car rides together. A family-guy knows how to be your best friend and also your romantic He’s a lover at is something you learn through the ways it was expressed to you. A man who loves his family, was loved by his family, and will one day love the family he creates as his makes time for friends, appreciates kindness shown to him and knows how to love in a committed way. He says he’s sorry, and he know knows how to laugh. He has walked with his grandma on his arm. He has let his little cousins ride on his buys his mom flowers on Mother’s Day, and keeps the trinkets and ties his dad has handed down to him. He knows to hug everyone goodbye at a family event and has probably played many games of hide-and-seek long after becoming an if a man starts to tell you he is really close with his family, keep your eye on the prize, ladies. According to the Pew Research Center, a father’s role has changed in America. In 2016, the amount of time dads devoted to childcare was about three times the amount they provided in 1965. Despite this increase, 63 percent of fathers feel they still spend too little time with their The demands of juggling a career, a household, church commitments, and more are creating unparalleled pressure for dads and moms alike. How can we do it? How can we honor our family’s needs and keep up with everything else? Let me suggest five principles from God’s Word. 1 Provide for your family – 1 Timothy 58 Sometimes we think of our faith and our finances as being separate from each other, but the Bible draws a clear connection “If anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever” 1 Timothy 58. As early as the Garden of Eden, God established man’s responsibility to be a provider when He instructed Adam to tend and keep the garden Genesis 215. It’s no accident that the Bible refers to God as our Father. Not only does Father describe His true character and nature, but it also points to Him as the perfect example for us to follow. It’s amazing how many times in the New Testament the fatherhood of God is placed alongside human fatherhood to illustrate how we as human fathers can love our children. And one of the ways we do that, according to the book of Timothy, is by providing for our families. With each child that enters the family, it’s a reminder that God has given dads this wonderful privilege and opportunity to provide for their families. Looking back over the years and recognizing how God has enabled us to meet our family’s needs is a joyful, worshipful experience. Just as we want to provide for our children, God wants to provide for us. He’s not a reluctant Father who needs to be convinced to do what we want; He is a willing Father who is eager to answer our requests. The book of Matthew offers a parallel story of God the Father and of human fatherhood Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!Matthew 79-11 The Bible tells us that God is waiting for us to ask Him for what we need. In this same chapter, we find these familiar words “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened” verses 7-8. While it is true that He has wired this universe to work through prayer, God simply says, “If you ask, I will answer. If you seek, I will be found. If you knock, the door will be opened.” That attitude of anticipation by our Heavenly Father should be the spirit that we have as human fathers—not reluctant, not having to be broken down, but eager and willing to help our children. 2 Teach your children to be godly – 1 Samuel 2 & 3 The COVID-19 pandemic required many families to shelter in place together for weeks and even months. Some parents welcomed this extra time with their children. Others discovered what their children’s teachers had been telling them for a long time—their kids are wild! As much as we might like to point fingers at the teachers or the kids themselves, God’s Word places responsibility squarely on the parents. Hebrews 126 says, “For the Lord disciplines those he loves” NLT. That’s a good thought, isn’t it? We won’t help our children by withholding discipline. If we allow them to run wild, they won’t be prepared for success in life or in God’s kingdom. Helping our children make the right decisions is an expression of our love. The writer of Hebrews goes on to explain that discipline allows us to share in God’s holiness and to enjoy “the fruit of righteousness” Hebrews 1211. Our goal in administering discipline is to encourage godliness. It is not an opportunity to vent our anger. It’s not because “these kids are driving me crazy!” It’s because we love our children too much to allow them to develop sinful habits that will lead them away from God’s will and the promise of His blessing. 3 Respond with compassion – Psalm 10313-14 Fathers express love to their children by providing for them and disciplining them, but we also have a responsibility to respond with compassion. The goal of our discipline is to help them be their personal best, not perfect. Psalm 10313-14 states, “The Lord is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who fear him. For he knows how weak we are; he remembers we are only dust” NLT. The apostle Paul adds, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord” Ephesians 64. Our correction should be constructive, not destructive. The goal of godly discipline is to cultivate good attitudes in our children and to encourage them. When we’re raising our kids, there’s a fine line between maintaining the standard of what is right and understanding that they’re growing, that they’re kids, and that they need grace. We don’t always do that well. That wasn’t the way many of us were brought up. Along with all the rules and standards, it’s important to find a balance—and to have fun too. 4 Recognize their individuality – Genesis 4928 One habit of great parents is that they study their children. Genesis 49 records the blessing that Jacob issued to each of his twelve sons. He didn’t give a blanket statement; he provided something special for every single person in his family. Occasionally a parent will blurt out, “Why can’t you be like your brother,” or “Why can’t you be like your sister?” The obvious answer is that each child is a different person. God has created each one of our children unique. Some of them are athletes, and some of them are musicians, and some of them are into all kinds of different hobbies. And the greatest thing we can do is to love them, nurture them, shape them, know them, and prepare them to step out into this wide world as unique individuals, blessed of God. As parents, our job is to learn about our children. Each of them has their own personality and abilities because each of them is unique. We can set our children free to be the people God created them to be if we will help them find their strengths, their gifts, their talents and then celebrate them for who they are and help them become everything God wants them to be. 5 Reinforce their identity – Colossians 321 When Jesus was baptized, the Bible says a voice from heaven proclaimed, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” Matthew 317. What a great statement that is. I don’t think there’s anything that we can do for our kids, especially in this generation, that’s more important than being their cheerleaders. When my children were growing up, I made a commitment to support them and encourage them by being physically present at their activities. My son, David, played high school basketball, and his games were often in the afternoon. So I would take off early and go to the games. I hardly missed any. But my commitment was tested every time I turned around. One day as I was preparing to leave for a game, I could tell my secretary was having a hard time with someone who wanted to talk to me about a personal crisis he was experiencing. He just kept after her. Finally she said, “No, Dr. Jeremiah can’t see you. He’s already late for an appointment. He’s leaving, and he can’t see you right now.” In order to exit the building, I had to walk through the lobby. And he was there. He walked right up to me and he said, “Where are you going?” When I explained that I was on the way to my son’s basketball game, he threw a fit. In that moment, God gave me a word, and here’s what I said “Sir, there are five guys upstairs who are pastors who can help you. My son only has one dad, and I’m out of here.” Then I left. I trust that man found the help he needed. His needs were important and valid. But periodically, our priorities come in conflict with each other. And sometimes our kids need to take priority over everybody else and everything else. That’s how we pass our values on to our kids. And we don’t do it right all the time. But when we see those values being passed on to the next generation, it is a wonderful thing. Fatherhood is more caught than it is taught, and our kids catch it when they see it happen. Let’s do everything we can to cheer them on to greatness.
