(On)Betrokke Pa: Die Man wat die Siklus Breek/(Un)Involved Dad: The Man Who Breaks the Cycle 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon
-
- Self-Improvement
Jaco van Schalkwyk het sonder 'n betrokke pa grootgeword, en dit het baie seer in sy lewe veroorsaak.
Jare later het hy voor 'n kruispad gestaan: Word hy sélf 'n onbetrokke pa, of kies hy 'n ander - maar moeiliker - pad?
Jaco het gekies om te verander, om die werk te doen en te leer om 'n goeie pa te wees.
Dit was egter nie die einde van sy vaderskapsreis nie, want Jaco het besef daars 'n hele geslag jong seuns in Suid-Afrika wat vaderloos is, of wie se pa nie 'n goeie rolmodel is nie.
En toe begin Jaco "The Character Company", waar hy en ander mans as't ware "pa staan" vir jong seuns wat nie pa's het nie. Want Jaco wéét immers hoe voel die leemte waar 'n pa moet wees, en hy verstaan hoe moeilik dit is vir enkelma's is wat alleen daardie las moet dra.
Nou vervul die mans van "The Character Company" die rol van positiewe manlike rolmodelle: Hulle leer vir die seuns goeie waardes, hulle gaan kamp saam met hulle en maak werklik 'n verskil in hulle lewens.
Jaco praat met Daniëlla oor wat dit is om 'n goeie man en pa te wees, hoe mans "generational trauma" en ouerwonde kan genees en 'n nuwe storie van ouerskap skryf. Hy praat ook tot die hart van mans, so hierdie episode moet gehoor word deur elke man, pa, eggenoot en enkelma.
{Hierdie is die tweede episode in 'n reeks wat fokus op pa's, met die viering van Vadersdag in Juniemaand}
Jaco van Schalkwyk grew up without an involved father, which caused significant pain in his life.
Years later, Jaco faced a crossroads: would he become an uninvolved father himself, or would he choose a different, albeit more difficult, path?
Jaco chose to change, to do the work, and to learn how to be an involved father. But it didn't stop there—Jaco realized that there is a whole generation of young boys in South Africa who are fatherless or whose fathers are not good role models. Jaco then started "The Character Company," where he and other men essentially "stand in" as fathers for young boys who lack them. Jaco knows how it feels to have the void where a father should be, and he understands how difficult it is for single mothers who have to bear that burden alone. Now, the men of "The Character Company" fulfill the role of positive male role models. They teach the boys good values, go camping with them, and truly make a difference in their lives. They are committed to doing this long term. Jaco talks with Daniëlla about what it means to be a man and a father, how men can heal "generational trauma" and father wounds, and write a new story of parenthood. He speaks to the heart of men, so this episode should be heard by every man, father, husband, and single mother.
{This is the second episode in a series focusing on fathers, in celebration of Father's Day in June.}
