I’m often asked about raising six kids, and being productive and achieving goals and changing habits in the midst of raising so many kids. But here’s the thing: I do all the other stuff, the productivity stuff, because of my kids. They, and my wife, are my reason for being.

The little girl was so young when I started dating her mom, (she was 5 months) that I was pretty much the only father figure in her life. I really don't want to screw up at this.
World's Standard sucks, I'm 18 and my parents never stabbed me or something and I'm pretty much well educated and ready to the world. And i find it nice that your goal is to be the best dad possible, your kids might be happy about it
Pretty sound advice. The only thing is, it's one thing knowing what you need to do, and quite another having the patience to put it into practice consistently after a hard day's work. And you must have to work pretty hard, if you have all those mouths to feed.
I think the best tip you can get is this: spend time with your children and love them from all your heart. As long as you follow that tip, then you will be the best dad.
