#Virtue

As Thailand prepares to celebrate Father’s Day, a surge of psychological and cross-cultural research is shining new light on an age-old question: how do fathers best teach their children right from wrong? A recent article in Psychology Today and a wave of new scientific studies reveal that fathers profoundly influence children’s moral development—not through strict discipline or grand speeches, but by quietly modeling virtue in everyday life (psychologytoday.com). This focus on fathers as living examples of morality offers insights and practical guidance for Thai families navigating a rapidly changing social landscape.
