Marriage Roadblocks and Wife Complaints. |EP80|

Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I talk about a Reddit post I came across about a woman who was venting about the awful things her husband does and thought about leaving constantly.  There were many more people in the comments complaining about similar things so I wanted to know more. I found a few articles that were geared toward things husbands do to irritate and bother their wives so I dove in. I discuss some of the points comparing and relating my own experiences with them. Hopefully this will enlighten you as it did me and make us all be better husbands.  Links:

What’s Up With Their Work Ethic?! |EP79|

On today's episode of Stay At Home Dads Podcast I start with something I observed at my local park.  Did I read into the situation too much?  You be the judge.  I also rant about another situation I witnessed which led me to talk about the main topic of today's episode, the work ethic and drive of a certain generation, the Z type, as well as some Millennials.  I theorize as to why they are the way they are as well as what we can do within our own families and kids to try and instill those values of a great work ethic and doing the best they can so they succeed in life and adulthood.  I reference a few articles that are linked below.

Part 2 Interview with a Teacher Sharon, Avoiding The Summer Backslide. |EP67|

Today on Stay At Home Dads, elementary school teach Sharon and I continue our conversation on preventing a learning regression over summer break.  We have more device and iPad talk as well as getting outside to experience nature.  We also talk two of the most important things we can emphasize to keep our kids progressing and how important reading is not only with reading itself but with math as well.

Part 1 Interview with a Teacher Sharon Avoiding The Summer Backslide. |EP66|

Today on Stay at Home Dads I have a great interview with Sharon B, a local first grade teacher.  We talk about what we can do to help our kids avoid losing all that important knowledge over the long summer break.  We also tell some stories about Sharon's kids, how she got into teaching, as well as the level of education in our local schools.  She also mentions many great tips on keeping our kids engaged in learning throughout summer, the most important thing kids should do, as well as her thoughts on kids using devices.   This is part 1 of a 2 part interview, so tune in next week for the second half of this great conversation!
