In this episode Bert and Tom discuss the commitment we made when we became fathers and attempt to answers some of the questions related to maintaining and developing this trait in a world full of distraction and obligation.

Why do some fathers find it so hard to step up and commit to their roles as fathers?

How did we get so "busy" that we neglect this role?

Why are we so easily distracted by the commitments we have to clearly less important things?

Is there such a thing as being too committed to parenting?

How do we find the sweet spot between losing ourselves in parenting and not being involved enough?

And how can we change the stereotypes that have surrounded fathers and bring more awareness to the immense significance a father plays in his children's lives?

What is clear is that choosing to commit can add value to our lives but commitment to things that distract us from our greatest calling in life can rob us and our children of the wonder that being a tight knit family can bring.
