With a woman to look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with a point.

It's an experience that drives many young mothers crazy after carrying a child for months

and during labor and childbirth nursing through many sleepless nights.

What are the first words she hears from the kid?

Dad-ad.

What isn't always the case?

But across times and cultures, babies are more likely to name their father before their

mother.

However, rather than a preference for dad or a slight to mom, according to a recent

tweet by Dr. Dan Worry, it's more likely a reinforcement of just how important mom is.

You see at that young age, the mother child bond is still so tight, baby simply cannot

see her as other.

She's the world, with dad as more of a visitor.

That's a reminder of what Ryan Anderson has said that kids don't need just parents, but

they need is a mom and a dad and each provide unique and distinct gifts by their presence

for their children.
