He and Jerrad talk about the temptation to rescue our kids from hard things, how anxiety often shows up differently in boys, why chores and discomfort matter, and how kids build competence by practicing coping, problem-solving, and flexibility.They also talk honestly about dads doing their own healing work, how unhealed pain can spill onto our families, and why strong families begin with men who are willing to name what is going on in their own hearts.If you’re a dad who wants to raise kids who can handle real life with courage, resilience, and dependence on Jesus, this conversation is for you.Important Links:Grab a copy of David's book: Capable: Raising Resiliant KidsMentioned: The Anxious Generation & The Amazing Generation Dad Tired Annual RetreatHost A Dad Tired Conference at your churchJoin the FREE Family Leadership ProgramShop the Dad Tired store for best-selling gear","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/dYTexbkvAH7EjY4sdrnUJpRzc4P9Vasgn9FyCcMZZxc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zMjIx/YTIwZTkyNmQzYjVk/NmFkNWJhNjRmYjdl/M2VlZS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
