Why do so many fathers vanish from their children's lives? Adam Coleman argues it starts at birth - without holding their babies in those first crucial months, men never develop the chemical bond that keeps them present. The result: boys without fathers become men who can't regulate emotions, swinging from zero to a hundred over minor slights, filling prisons and chasing external validation through money and women. This conversation explores the uncomfortable truth that teaching boys emotional regulation might be a father's most critical role - and why figures like Andrew Tate appeal to a generation of men who never learned the difference between internal worth and external validation.
