Back to EpisodesIs the American Dream Dead? One Dad's Honest Take on Marriage, Kids, and Why It's Still Worth It
Description
Younger generations are delaying marriage, skipping kids, and walking away from the white picket fence entirely — and honestly, Robbie gets it. The cost of having a family has never been higher, divorce rates reshaped an entire generation's view of commitment, and social media has made everyone else's life look better than yours. So is it still worth it?
Robbie gives his most direct, unfiltered take on why he believes it is — while being completely honest about how hard it's been, the fertility challenges, the financial pressure, and the version of himself he had to become to show up for his family the way they deserve.
Topics covered: why young adults are opting out of marriage and parenthood, the real financial barriers to starting a family in 2025, what's actually killing marriages (hint: it's not just compatibility), why having kids forced Robbie to become a better man, and his honest take on the childfree lifestyle.
