Gentle Parenting: Spineless or Stronger Than You Think?
In this episode of Why, Dad?, Paul and Andrew unpack one of the most misunderstood parenting ideas out there: Gentle Parenting.
They break down what it is, what it isn’t, and why so many dads (especially those who grew up with stricter models) find themselves confused by it. This is not a conversation about letting your kids walk all over you. It’s about holding boundaries and connection at the same time.
With real-life moments, honest disagreements, and practical reflections, this episode challenges the idea that “respectful” means “permissive.” Whether you’re deep in toddler tantrums or just trying not to lose it after work, there’s something here for you.
