  • Great advice, too much talking by Rebecca

    Danny gives great advice and is the professional expert and experienced parent. While Rebecca has some good insights and examples/stories, she makes too many random comments and vocalizations while other people are talking (“mmm” and “yeah”). A few vocalizations is natural, but hers are excessive. She is just another parent like we are, not a trained professional. So we want to hear from Danny more.

  • It’s good to feel seen

    Thank you for your recent episode on parenting (and specifically fatherhood) anxiety. Anxiety has played such a strong roll in my story, and I’m thankful for the work God is still doing in my life through shows like yours. Cheers!
