Dad teaches son key lessons on becoming a man
This might be the best thing for young men everywhere forever.
Some parents believe that raising boys is vastly different from raising girls – and only those with both can truly weigh in on the debate.
But beyond gender, parenting often comes with distinct roles.
Fathers are often seen as the ones who instil resilience through tough love, preparing their sons for the challenges of the world.
Mothers, on the other hand, typically take on a nurturing role, offering emotional support and creating a sense of safety and love.
A TikTok page dedicated to life lessons for young men has quietly gained traction as a go-to source of wisdom. On it, a father named Jared shares heartfelt advice with his son, offering simple but powerful guidance on what it means to become a good man.
The page hooks viewers with short, punchy content, as Jared keeps things fresh by blending meaningful life lessons with a dose of humour, sparking conversations about raising men, not just boys.
Jared has taken the classic dad joke to the next level, and honestly, they’re hilarious.
One of his videos, which has more than 7 million views, drew a wave of love from moms who appreciated the lighthearted yet thoughtful approach to parenting.
