Everyone knows Superman. A guy with letter ‘S’ on his chest who can fly high in the sky. A guy who can raise a truck with one hand. A guy who can do almost everything.
But here, in this small house, is a father who claimed himself as a super dad. What is so ‘super’ about me? I can’t even see clearly without my glasses. But I insist, I am really a super dad.
I think I am a super dad.
I am brave enough to tell people around me, to declare myself as a dad who is homeschooling his children. I am strong enough to stand still with my decision to homeschool my kids. Even when the people around me are discussing about their kids’ ‘extraordinary’ performance at their ‘ordinary’ school.
I think I am a super dad.
I can see what others can’t see on my kids. My kids’ ability and creativity. I don’t need super power to understand my kids. I believe other dads too. I trust my kids. I always believe they can do beyond my expectation, and that justify why I am a super dad.
I think I am a super dad.
Every time I reach home after working at the University, I always see my home as a ‘paradise’. Even when the toys, the books are everywhere. Even when I see my wife is not like what I always see in the movie. What ever it is, for me, all of that are the ‘decorations’ that will always be remembered. Why do I care so much about tidiness, when on one site, I can see my kids and their teacher, which is my wife, are really enjoying their homeschool.
Indeed, I am a super dad!
