Leading Your Family Like a Real Man

4d ago1 min read

Nobody talks about this anymore but a man is supposed to lead his household. Not like a tyrant but with purpose and direction. You make the hard decisions. You protect your family. You provide. You lead by example not by being your kids's buddy. My wife respects me because I'm strong and decisive. My kids know where the line is because I'm consistent. I'm not perfect but I own my mistakes and I own my responsibilities. That's what real leadership looks like. Seems like a lot of guys today just check out and let everything fall apart.

Teaching them the handshake and manners stuff is good but the real leadership is showing up, being reliable, and making tough calls when needed. That's what sticks with kids.

Agree with this completely. Being a leader in your household doesn't mean being a drill sergeant. It means being someone your family can trust and respect.

Leading by example is the key. My kids see how I treat their mom, how I handle decisions, how I respond when things go wrong. That's the real lesson.
