If you loved Discipline and Development from Season 1, this is the much awaited follow up session. Mike will also deal with that difficult topic of what to do when dads make a mistake, drop the ball and then lose it? Finally, start the year right with some parenting resolutions for 2021!

This is the second episode of Dads Matter Season 2 Zoom conferences brought to you by the Family Enrichment Society. So, we really hope you can join us LIVE on Thursday as Mike opens the floor at the end and answers the parenting questions you’ve always wanted to ask.

He’ll also speak on how to nurture kids that speak their minds without losing yours. He’ll make you think hard about whether you’re raising a progeny, a project or a prop? End off with some solid parenting resolutions for 2021!
