In this episode of the Dudes and Dads Podcast, Andy, Mark, and Joel discuss the challenges of raising teenage boys and guiding them toward adulthood. After Mark shares his new hobby of collecting ancient biblical coins, the conversation shifts to navigating the “pre-launch” phase of parenting. The dads explore the different paths their kids are taking, from traditional college to trades and entrepreneurship. They emphasize the importance of an “open door” policy for communication and candidly share the bittersweet emotional reality of realizing their growing sons no longer need them to provide and protect.
