Brandon Jones, the founder of Be Dadly, discovered that his oldest son was struggling with severe behavioral issues that led to his expulsion from kindergarten. After numerous attempts, Brandon realized that his inherited parenting techniques were ineffective and decided to make drastic changes. His new approach yielded better results, and he's now dedicated to helping fathers improve their children's behavior without resorting to yelling, spanking, or anger. Over the last decade, Brandon has studied and implemented the most effective parenting techniques, and he has become a Certified Parent Educator.

In this interview, we will discuss the crucial adjustments that Brandon made to assist his misbehaving child, as well as the techniques he teaches to his clients.

They need us to be aware of what they are and how to respond to them appropriately. In this episode the love languages are covered and what they look like when implemented with our children.

This episode is a quick conversation on anger management and how to handle it. This is not a focus on discipline, but reacting with anger. Some people may think spanking is a good form of discipline, some people don't. That is up to each and every parent's own discretion. This is about hitting with anger. Some tips are shared, some thoughts on counseling, and some important steps to take when you are feeling angry with your kids or partner. 

There might be some thoughts you don't agree with, and that's okay. Feel free to reach out to discuss: beingadadonpurpose@gmail.com . 

For counseling services: Better Help is a great place to start.
