Holding baby Flossy in one arm, Al delivers a raw, punchy reminder of what fatherhood really teaches a man.

Four kids, four lessons: identity, capacity, time management, and the newest one, self control. Not the pretend version. The real version, where you are tired, tested, tempted, and still choose the standard.

He unpacks why comfort kills growth, why discomfort is the gateway, and finishes with a gut check every man needs to face:

If your son grew up to be the man you are today… would you be proud, or ashamed?

If your daughter grew up to marry the type of man you are today... would you be proud, or ashamed?
