EP 448 Kevin Baker: Do You Know Your Kids?

Kevin Baker, a life coach for teens and tweens, shares advice for parents on how to better connect with their kids and guide them toward independence. Kevin talks about the importance of understanding who your kids are, rather than focusing on whether you're a "good" parent. He breaks down the difference between helicopter and lighthouse parenting and explains why it's essential to let kids make their own choices, even if they fail sometimes. Kevin offers insights on how to foster confidence, self-awareness, and responsibility in young people, while addressing the pressures of modern-day parenting.

About the Podcast

Fatherhood Field Notes
Fatherhood Field Notes is where we hear real stories from real men living real lives every week. Fatherhood is not only about being a dad, it incorporates providing and serving a home, loving and serving a spouse, engaging and serving in a community, as well as intentionally serving your children. Fatherhood is an adventure, one full of fun, wild, and messy stories. In this podcast, we will hear stories from real men who have found themselves living the Adventure of Fatherhood. The Craft of Fatherhood episodes are 5-10 minute episodes where your guide Ned Schaut shares stories on his own fatherhood journey.
