The New Father: How Arlington Fathers are REDEFINING what it means to be a dad
Posted on June 1, 2023
Larry Curry, who runs Metro Sports Arlington, a non-profit that uses sports to help youth develop essential life skills, does events where they encourage father-son competitions because it helps foster their relationships. Nothing hasn’t changed how men and their children can bond over sports.
“It makes the fathers more approachable and relatable with their kids,” said Curry, a dad to three. “Any time my kids see me doing productive things, it fosters that relationship. It’s important, especially between fathers and daughters. I want my kids to see how I treat their mom. My son will see how he should treat a woman, and my daughter sees how she should be treated.”
