Summary

Dr. Meg Meeker says, “In a culture that lauds mothers as the parental heads of the house, the role of fathers has become inappropriately minimized—and in some cases even ridiculed. Fathers need to see themselves the way their children see them, You are, whether you know it or not, the center of their world, the hub of the wheel that is your family, the hero they depend on. If you’re not there or not engaged, they suffer.” Those are significant statements and it’s what we dig into in this interview, along with, “Three questions your child needs you to answer”. Thanks to Constant Contact, Fresh Mac, “The New Rules of Work” book, and Capterra for supporting this episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
