Sharing this article from Fatherly on how dads can help their sons build an emotional vocabulary, and ultimately a stronger foundation for their sons' mental wellness: "Not being able to address emotions feeds into boysâ and menâs anxiety, stress, and ability to make long-lasting friendships. All of this affects menâs well-being."

Why Emotional Intelligence Is Crucial to Raising Boys
www.fatherly.com
Traditionally, boys arenât encouraged to build an emotional vocabulary. Dads, in particular, can help change that.Wishing all the dads out there a Happy Fatherâs Day thatâs filled with love. We also know that today can be a tough day for many and we want to honor those feelings too. Big hugs from the Crossroads family!
Thank you @BlesstheMessyFatherâs Day, has never been my favorite. Itâs often a day I forget is a holiday or donât see coming. I have a lot of pain associated with dads. A lot of abandonment and a lot of unworthy feelings.
My biological dad left when I was born. Because it was messy. Because my mother and him didnât do things âthe rightâ way. He got married to someone else and had three kids the way he wanted.
My mom married a man who adopted me. Itâs why my siblings and I all shared a name. I never really thought about how he wasnât my *real* dad, he was just my dad. Until my parents got divorced. And then he no longer needed to have relationship with me because I wasnât his *real* daughter.
Both dads have come in and out of my life at their convenience. I tried to reconcile with both dads at times over the years. It was always my work, my problem, something I needed to change to keep their love. So boundaries have been made. Itâs still a really hard thing for me. But I am healed in small ways. Watching Greg with our boys, watching my brother in law become a dad, watching Meg miss her dad when she hasnât seen him for awhile.
I know some of you have the best dads in the world. I know some of you ARE the best dads in the world. So Iâve poured my coffee and im drinking a cup in honor of each of you this morning. Wherever youâre at, Iâm sending you love, healing, strength, and strong coffee. xo
