Why Perfect Parenting is Bullshit… and What I Did Instead

Adam Ross opens up about the brutal truth of parenting: every parent feels like they’re failing. Instead of trying to live up to the impossible standard of “perfect parenting,” Adam shares how he shifted his approach — treating fatherhood less like discipline and control, and more like coaching.

With six kids, chaos is guaranteed. But by focusing on encouragement, guidance, and teaching in the moment, Adam discovered a way to turn failure into growth and actually enjoy fatherhood more.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re screwing it all up, this episode will remind you you’re not alone — and there’s a better way forward.
