E29: How To Raise Resilient Children with Dennis Morolda
Manage episode 387658105 series 3533932
What does it truly take to raise strong, healthy young men and women equipped to face life's challenges head-on? That's the riveting question we explore with our guest, Dennis Morolda. As a former middle school principal, motivational speaker, and co-host of the Building Men Podcast, Dennis brings a wealth of experience in working with at-risk boys and achieving impressive results. He shares his incredible journey and the effective strategies he employed to reduce his school's suspension rate by a whopping 75% within a year.
Our insightful discussion delves into the three thieves - resistance, distraction, and victimhood - which often obstruct the path to success, and how to guide young men to overcome these obstacles. We also shine a light on the significance of community, the role of role models, and the essential art of praising effort over results to foster growth and resilience. From his unique insights on parenting strategies to his advice on breaking generational cycles, Dennis provides a valuable roadmap for parents and anyone involved in raising boys and girls alike.
