Juggling both work and parenting can be a very demanding task not only for mommy\u2019s \u2013 but for daddy\u2019s as well! Here are some tips to ensure you\u2019re getting an A+ at work while being the best dad you can be.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Schedule time every day to do something with your children. Even if it\u2019s reading them a bed time story or giving them a bath before bed. Writing this down and having a plan can help make it easier. It\u2019s also important to ask your children questions, no matter how little they can be. Kids remember everything, so they\u2019ll remember the times when you\u2019re available and unfortunately when you\u2019re not as well.<\/li>\n
  2. Just say no to some work activities. Sometimes there are after-work activities with coworkers you just don\u2019t have to say yes to. Sure, you\u2019ll be missing some funny stories at that happy hour everyone went to, but you\u2019ll catch up with your coworkers next time. Kids grow up too fast to not embrace the present and spend time with them while their young. Trust me, they won\u2019t want to spend time with you once their teenagers!<\/li>\n
  3. Sometimes long hours are inevitable. Sometimes we have bosses that make life harder than it should be. It\u2019s up to you to communicate any concerns you have with deadlines and schedules with your superiors. The best bosses are flexible enough to understand you have a life outside of work.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Juggling both work and parenting can be a very demanding task not only for mommy\u2019s \u2013 but for…","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[818,1316,1296],"tags":[887,888,886],"class_list":["post-7968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-inspirational","category-office-wellness-tips-and-trends","category-tips-and-trends","tag-dads-at-work","tag-parenting","tag-working-dads","cs-entry"],"yoast_head":"\nWorking Dads -
