Fatherhood in 2025: Building Resilient Kids in a Fragile World

Fatherhood in Focus

Dads, here’s the uncomfortable question: Are you raising your kids to be strong or just safe?

In today’s world, filled with distractions, diluted masculinity, and endless outside influence, the role of a father has never been more important.

In this episode of Answer Me This, we go deep into what it really means to raise resilient children in 2025.

We explore:

✅ Why protecting kids from every struggle can weaken them for the future.

✅ How to teach resilience, confidence, and self-worth in a fragile culture.

✅ The tension between safety and strength and why your kids need both.

✅ The influence of school, society, screens and how dads must lead at home.

Your kids don’t need a perfect dad. They need a father who shows them how to fail, rise, and try again. This isn’t about survival. It’s about raising kids ready to thrive in a tough world.

If you’re a new dad, boy dad, or father determined to raise resilient kids, this episode will challenge you to think differently and act with conviction.
