When My Worst Fear as a Dad Became Reality

There’s a moment every father dreads—the day your child gets hurt and you can’t protect them. My heart sank when I got the call from school: my son had fallen on the playground and was being taken to the ER. The drive there felt endless, my mind racing with every possible scenario. Seeing him scared and in pain was gut-wrenching, but it also reminded me how precious and fragile these moments are. As fathers, we want to shield our kids from every harm, but sometimes all we can do is be there, hold their hand, and help them heal. Have you ever faced your biggest parenting fear?
