The father-child relationship (父子關(guān)系) is the most important because in many families the father is the head of the family and a role model to his children.

1. When a child is born in the family, the parents plan a future. The father is the most excited as he has different plans for his new son or daughter.

2. In today’s world, fathers especially have no time for family. Work has taken up their time, so they spend less time with their family and children. The importance of father and child bonding (親密關(guān)系形成) has decreased in the recent years.

3. Do something together like playing games or a basketball match etc. Activities with your child help you get to know what she / he likes or dislikes and helps you bond better.

4. If your child tells you she / he loves her / his mother more, you should know that you haven’t spent enough time with the child. Ask your wife how to get closer to your child.

These are some tips for father and child bonding in today’s world. Children need both their parents to help them deal with the future when they grow up.
