MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT
JUNE - SPOTLIGHT ON FATHERS
With Father's Day in the month of June, the REAADY Foundation thought it would be good to focus on the importance of fathers. We believe that all children want to make their father's proud, want to know their father is there for them. Studies show that involved fathers promote inner growth and strength and instill an overall sense of well-being and self confidence in their children. Here are some inspirational quotes about fathers.
“My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.” Jim Valvano
“My father taught me you have to believe in yourself and run on your own track.” Jennifer Grey
"She did not stand alone, but what stood behind her, the most potent moral force in her life, was the love of her father." Harper Lee
“A good father is one of the most unsung, unpraised, unnoticed, and yet one of the most valuable assets in our society." Billy Graham
"By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he’s wrong." Charles Wadsworth
“You don’t raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you treat them like sons, they’ll turn out to be heroes, even if it’s just in your own eyes.” Walter M. Schirra, Sr.
“One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters.” George Herbert
