119: How to Make Your Man a Better Dad

When your kids are getting yelled at, insulted or called terrible names by their own father, it's very hard to handle without interfering. It's hard to watch any kid treated harshly but almost unbearable when they're your babies. It's heart-wrenching to see their little faces fall and the tears start when clearly none of the treatment they're getting is warranted or fair. How in the world can you stay respectful when that's happening? I have no idea. I don't have kids, so I'm still the perfect mother (just like I was the perfect wife, right up until I got married). But I have these amazing students who share how they've transformed the dynamic in their homes and brought out the best in their husbands' interactions with their kids. On today's episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, we're talking about how to make your husband a better dad.
