Dad's old abandonment wounds are sabotaging Mom's push to get their 2-year-old out of the family bed—leading to 2 a.m. meltdowns, that hit Dad right in the gut. In this raw coaching session, host James calls it straight: You're not your absent dad, boundaries aren't abandonment, and your big-hearted "benefactor" nature is getting played by a toddler who knows exactly which button to push. With baby #2 arriving soon, the stakes are high. Game plan essentials: Apologize to your wife, lock arms on unity, return her to bed consistently (no rewards for chaos), lock the door if you have to, and commit—even when it hurts. Stop the midnight rescues. Step up, lead your home, and give your wife and kids the leadership now before the battles get bigger.
