Provider or Present DAD?
Hey All, Just curious what you guys would actually choose in this classic dad dilemma between provider and present, no right or wrong answers. Two options: Job A pays a lot more, covers bills easily, extra for holidays, abundant savings, better future for the kids, but comes with working away, night shifts, OT grind, or doing work that’s not your passion. More provider mode, but sacrifices time at home. Job B pays enough for our current needs (no money worries on basics), feels more aligned with what you value, and gives way more family time. No nights away, regular evenings/weekends, being present for the everyday moments. Simpler lifestyle, no big extras, slow savings rate. If you had to pick between the two, would you go for A (higher pay + sacrifices) or B (steady + more home time)? And what does your current work look more like—A or B? Also add you current situation, married? Young or older kids? Etc. Thanks for the honest takes, comment below!
Sunday reflection and planning time
Sundays are the perfect day to pause, think about the week gone by, and plan for the week ahead. 💭 Reflection: What’s one win you had as a dad this week? Last week I had my baby son watch me workout multiple times, it’s amazing to see how he stops being restless and takes in my movement. Such a great feeling knowing I’m leading by example even from a early age. 📝 Planning: What’s one thing you want to do next week to be more present with your kids? I have just started learning Italian on duo lingo, my wife and I both come from Italian families but the culture and language has been lost a little down the generations. My wife is relearning her Italian and I’m learning for the first time, I hope this will bring us together closer as a family and help our son find stronger connections to his culture and identity. (And prepare for a trip to Italy in 2027). I’d love to hear your thoughts, drop your reflection and plan for next week below and let’s start the week strong together!
