IS FATHERHOOD DEAD? | The Life Raft

from Counter Culture Inc. · host Tyler Hoover

Is fatherhood dead, or have we just forgotten how important it is?** This week on The Life Raft, Jay and Jake look at what fatherhood means now, why some men walk away from their children while others step up, and whether fathers still have the same place in the family and society that they once did. We come at the subject from very different backgrounds, but this isn’t just about our childhoods. We’re getting into absent fathers, responsibility, discipline, relationships, masculinity, breaking bad cycles, raising children, and the reasons some men choose to be present while others disappear. Are fathers still valued?Are men being given a clear idea of what a good father looks like?And what happens to children when that role is missing? We don’t pretend to have all the answers, but we’re going to have the conversation.
