Manage episode 394022011 series 3531808
Most people want to be liked. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, unless your desire to get along with others comes at the expense of your child’s well-being. Ted Lowe, Bobby Lewis, BJ Foster, and Jason Hood tackle the common problem of parenting to please others in today’s episode.
Putting others’ ahead of our kids can lead to feelings of inadequacy and impact your decision-making as a dad. Doing what’s right for your kids can be hard sometimes, but your choices as a parent must mirror your values, even if it causes friction with the people around you.
Today’s Pro Move: Take a moment to stop and ask, “Am I doing what’s best for my kids or doing what makes others feel best?”
