Fathering is not something perfect men do, but something that perfects the man. - Frank Pittman
Randy Palmer, the voice behind the Family Strong Podcast, dives into a topic close to his heart: how fathers can effectively intervene in their sons' battles with addiction. Drawing from his extensive experience, Randy underscores the profound influence a father can have in these critical moments. He begins by quoting Frank Pittman, 'Fathering is not something perfect men do, but something that perfects the man', setting the tone for an episode filled with practical wisdom and heartfelt advice.
Randy believes that every man carries a piece of his childhood longing for connection with his father, and this bond can be pivotal in recovery. He lays out three essential steps fathers can take to make a real difference: connect before correcting, establish clear and firm boundaries, and be a guiding light. These principles are designed to foster trust, eliminate shame, and create a supportive environment.
Randy also touches on the importance of teamwork and support groups, reminding listeners that boundary lines should support, not divide. This episode is a must-listen for any father looking to be a beacon of hope and strength for their son during challenging times.
