I Am a Dad, Not a Dog

Whether people mean to or not, often times, dads' status is reduced down to less than we deserve. True, dads aren't always given the respect they deserve, but it also doesn't mean there aren't lessons to be learned. A recent experience left me both a little amazed at how derogatory people can be, but it also left me really pondering my behaviors and how my behaviors are benefiting my family...or not.
