Podcast Episode 268: What Every First-Time Dad Must Know

Jan 14, 2017 | In The Loop

In The Loop with Andy Andrews, hosted by David Loy

 

In this week’s episode, a listener asks for Andy’s best advice for a first-time dad.

 

People will tell you they’ll grow up fast…and that’s true.

  • As an older dad, Andy paid attention to every moment he could—and his boys still grew up fast.

 

“Discipline while their young, or you’ll ruin their life.”  – King Solomon

  • Be harder on your children when they’re little so they know to follow your first request.
  • This will strengthen your relationship with them as they grow older.
  • They’ll learn to practice self-discipline at an early age.

 

Tune in this week to hear what Andy always does with his kids every night (even now that they’re older).
