With Valentine’s Day on the horizon and men begin to think about how we’re going to express our appreciation for our love ones, Chick-Fil-A presents us an opportunity to take care of one order of “love” business. Each year Chick-Fil-A host Daddy Daughter Date Night. In restaurants across the country fathers and men caretakers put aside a night to spend with the little precious ones in our lives; our daughters.

Research speaks to the fact that when fathers are actively and lovingly involved in the lives of their daughters, they prevent many social obstacles; like teen aged pregnancy, homelessness, substance abuse; etc. Even given that, there is one bonus that we don’t take a seriously as we do. For many of our daughters, their fathers serve (or should serve) as the example and model of healthy manhood.

Fathers Incorporated thanks the Chick-fil-a in Dunwoody, GA and its operator, Grant Wells, Lisa and his staff for allowing us to co-host, serve, talk to and enjoy the over 40 fathers who came out. We also salute Chick-Fil-A for providing at least for one night the opportunity to spend time with our girls and treating them like the princesses they are.
