“She’s the most beautiful girl in town. That makes her the best, and don’t I deserve the best?” Remember that line from Gaston in Beauty and the Beast? It probably doesn’t register as disrespectful with kids, but it certainly is. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about how to raise sons to respect women.

Why This Matters

·       Boys have mothers and sisters, who are worthy of respect.

·       Boys will date girls, who are worthy of respect.

·       Boys may one day have wives, who will be worthy of respect.

If you’re wondering what do to teach your sons about respecting women, you’re not alone. Start here:

1. Point out problematic phrases directed at women:

Objectifying, controlling, and sexualized language is not respectful. 

 2. Listen to girls/women:  

When a girl says “____,” respect her wishes. No means no.

3. Set a standard:

Model respect with the women you interact with. Show respect with your words, actions, and entertainment decisions. Your sons will see that. 

4. Follow the standard, not the crowd:
Remind kids that they don’t have to go along with what other boys accept, popularize, or glamorize about women.

We've all been there. Your kids are fighting AGAIN—this time over something even more frustrating than earlier today. The noise and sour feelings leave you wondering if there will ever be peace in your home. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about the understandable reasons kids fail to get along and pitch ideas to fix it.

Why This Matters
Kids who get along now are more likely to stay friends as adults. 

Kids Don’t Get Along Because…

·      They both want the same thing

·      They think it's not fair

·      They have different personalities

·      They're at different ages

·      They haven't learned how to share or solve problems

Practical Tips for Dads

1: Get proactive.

Model how to act during conflict, celebrate their strengths, make sure everyone gets “dad time,” talk about how to get along during calm moments, compliment them when they are getting along, and beware of how life events can impact behavior. 

2: Get involved.

Inject yourself when you need to, but stay calm, take breaks to avoid saying things you don’t mean, attack them problem (not them), and find solutions together. 

3: Know when it is time to seek help.

Sometimes, constant conflict requires professional help. Seek counsel if there is physical abuse in your home.

Ever tried to have a quiet conversation with your wife while a toddler was around? Good luck. We love kids, but they sure can get in the way sometimes. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about the threats parenting presents to marriage. 

Why This Matters

Marriages change after you have kids. Men must prioritize their relationship with their wives in order to weather the challenges that parenting presents. 

Common Threats to Marriage After Becoming a Dad

·      Exhaustion: Kids wear us out physically, emotionally, and mentally. That impacts your marriage. 

·      New areas of conflict: Arguments can get us thinking “me” not “we.”

·      Losing sight of each other: Don’t live like roommates. Set aside intentional time to connect with your wife. 

·      Mis-ordered priorities: Our wives’ needs should always come before kids’. 

·      Forgetting you’re a team: Work together with your wife to raise kids well.

“Money doesn’t grow on trees! Pull my finger!” Some dad phrases are goofy. But others? They can be quite hurtful, even if we don’t mean for them to be. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about common phrases we need to cut out.

Why This Matters
Words aren’t neutral with our kids. They are either helpful or hurtful.

Phrases That Make Kids Feel Small and Unheard

1. "Stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about."
Instead, try: "It's okay to feel sad/frustrated/scared. Tell me what's going on." 

2. “What’s wrong with you?”
Instead, try: "That choice wasn't like you. Help me understand what happened. 

Phrases That Can Hurt Our Connection With Our Kids

3. "When I was your age…"
Instead, try: "You are growing up in a different world than I did.  Explain it to me like I’m a martian. 

4. “You are making me crazy.”
Instead, try: "I’m feeling really frustrated right now. I need a minute, and then we can talk about.” 

Phrases That Can Mess Up How Our Kids See Authority and Even God

5. "Because I said so."
Instead, try: "Focus on natural consequences and clear boundaries: "If you don't pick up your toys, they'll be put away for a week."

6. “I’m disappointed in you.”
Instead, try: "I'm disappointed with that choice you made, and I know you can do better."

If your son has a TikTok or Instagram account, he’s likely aware of the manosphere. Even if he’s off social media, his friends probably aren’t. The world of hyper masculine, misogynistic, anti-feminist content is becoming increasingly popular with young men, but why? In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about the dangerous content of the manosphere and how it’s resonating with boys and young men.

Why This Matters
There’s nothing beneficial about the manosphere, so we should learn how to help our family avoid its poison. 

What Do Most Boys Want?
Kids, especially boys, are asking themselves these questions:

1. “Who am I?”
Boys are looking for identity.

2. “Where do I belong?”
Boys want to fit in.

3. “How do I influence the world?”
Boys are looking to leave their mark. 

Important Episode Timestamps

00:00 – 02:03 | What Is the Manosphere?
The hosts define key terms and unpack how online communities shape men’s beliefs about masculinity.

02:03 – 04:11 | The Good, the Bad, and the Confusing
The dads tackle the mixed messages the manosphere sends.

04:11 – 06:32 | When Men Feel Unseen
Many men turn to the manosphere when they feel misunderstood by culture.

06:32 – 09:15 | Influencers and Echo Chambers
Certain voices online gain power by amplifying anger and oversimplifying manhood.

09:15 – 12:05 | Real Strength vs. Online Posturing
Authentic masculinity is marked by service and humility.

12:05 – 15:12 | Why Young Men Are Vulnerable
Loneliness, fatherlessness, and social media pull teens into toxic content.

15:12 – 18:37 | Calling Dads to Engage
Fathers must teach boys what real manhood looks like.

18:37 – 22:43 | Modeling Healthy Masculinity
The dads share stories and practical ways to show strength through gentleness and integrity.

22:43 – End | Pro Move: “Ask your son who he is following on social media. Ask him if he’s heard of the manosphere, incels, and “red pills” and find out what he thinks about it.”

The rates of anxiety, depression, and self-harm have been steadily increasing for the last decade. The COVID-19 pandemic did nothing to slow it down. If anything, it made it worse. How are dads to deal with their kids’ mental health? In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by Dr. Chinwé Williams to talk about how to raise emotionally resilient kids.

Why This Matters

Empathy is powerful, but a lot of us are bad at it. Learning to be a more empathetic father makes us a better father. 

Key Takeaways

·      Our kids need help.

·      Anxiety is the No. 1 mental health issue.

·      Cyberbullying and harassment are common.

Practical Tools for Dads

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or wondering how to help your kids build emotional resilience, start with these steps:

1. Know the red flags.
Sleep disturbances, changes in food intake, mood shifts, and avoidance of friends are all signs dads can look for that indicate kids may be struggling with their mental health. 

2. Stay calm-ish. 
“You actually don’t have to feel calm to be calm.” – Dr. Williams

3. Initiate a pause or break. 
Pausing for 10–90 seconds gives you a long enough break to make a wise decision, have calm-ish reactions, and keep you from saying things you may regret with your kids.  

4. Emotional connection matters. 
If we want emotionally resilient kids, we must be emotionally present with them. “It sounds squishy or soft… but it really is powerful.” – Dr. Williams.

We’ve all heard the old saying, “Silence is golden.” And sometimes, it absolutely is. But when Dad doesn’t know what to say or do, how does that impact his kids? In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about dads being distracted, dumbfounded, and disengaged. 

Why This Matters

Silent dads are distant dads, and kids don’t need distance. They thrive on connection. 

3 Kinds of Dad Silence

1. Distracted Dad 
This happens when dads are physically present but mentally absent. 

2. Dumbfounded Dad 
This happens when dads get totally stumped or confused by something their kid does. 

3. Disengaged Dad
This dad might take care of the essentials, but he’s usually not invested in his kids’ daily life. 

Action Steps for Each Dad

If you’re prone to silence, follow these steps:

For the Distracted Dad:

1.    Put down the device

2.    Make eye contact

3.    Repeat back what they said

4.    Schedule "connection time"

For the Dumbfounded Dad:

1.    Embrace "I don't know"

For the Disengaged Dad:
1.    Acknowledge your state

2.    Ask open-ended questions

3.    Use "I" statements for feelings

Kids these days, right? Each new generation is presented with challenges. Generation Alpha is facing some big ones, and dads need to understand them all. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about how we can support our kids and grandkids through all their battles. 

Why This Matters

The better we understand this generation, the better we can love them. 

Who Is Generation Alpha? 

·      These kids were born between 2010 and 2024

·      They are largely the children of millennials

·      They are the most diverse generation in U.S. history

·      One of the biggest differences between Gen Z and Gen Alpha is the emergence of AI as an everyday factor of life

·      58% of Generation Alpha gets a smartphone before age 10

Issues Gen Alpha is Facing

1. Lack of Coping Skills

2. Rise of Subjective Truth

3. An Increasingly Complex World

4. Isolation

5. Negative Effects of Screens

Action Steps for Dads

1. Give more freedom where appropriate.

2. Teach your kids that we cannot trust our own hearts.

3. Take inventory of what information they ingest.

4. Encourage face-to-face interaction.

5. Set boundaries around screen time.

Do parents have favorites? Even if you say you don’t, research shows you probably do. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about dads showing favoritism, even unknowingly, harms everyone in the house. 

Why This Matters
Siblings who receive less favored treatment tend to have poorer mental health and more strained family relationships.

Key Takeaways

·      You probably DO have a favorite kid: A BYU study shows 80% of parents show preferential treatment

·      Behavior is a factor: The American Psychological Association says “agreeable and conscientious” kids are usually favored. 

·      Sorry, boys: Both mothers and fathers are more likely to favor daughters.

Action Steps for Dads
Perception is reality, so avoid even appearing to have a favorite kid by doing these things:

1. Analyze yourself.

2. Avoid unfair assignments and punishments.

3. Examine your wallet.

4. Divide your time as evenly as possible. 

5. Schedule regular check-ins. 

6. Hear them out.
