How Dads Should React To "Lazy" Kids


Listen Later

Man, it can rile a guy up if he's a hard-working guy with an amazing work ethic to see his kids acting lazy.

"You don't get that from ME!"

But what's really going on here?

Is your kid lazy?

Or is there something going on under the surface that has to do with you...as the father?

Find out in this episode, and figure out how to navigate the feeling of seeing your kids being lazy or slacking off.

(Plus, wait till the end for the wimpy Pastor Melvin rant from JM 😂)

Nobody tells men that our lives will shift into autopilot without us noticing. They didn’t warn us that our marriage would drift into average instead of amazing. But Christians should have the best marriages and the best sex lives. The Family Captain will show you how.
