How can I be motivated / bothered with my kids?

Get some friendly help

If, as a Dad, we find it hard to relate to our children, involve a friend or relative that is prepared to support you and help you (as a coach or mentor). They can support you into taking more interest and time with your kids, reward you for effort, and make you accountable for setting some rules and goals for your relationship with your kids. With support, success is much easier to obtain - you don't need to rely solely on your own discipline and motivation.
