Ace shares his Dallas upbringing, watching his parents sacrifice, start a family bakery, and maintain respect and unity through job loss and injury. He opens up about becoming a father at 20 when his son was born extremely premature and spent 77 days in the NICU, navigating abandonment, court battles, and eventually gaining full custody when his son was about two. Ace reflects on single parenthood, trust and abandonment issues, his son asking for therapy, and lessons about carrying yourself with character. He also describes his work in a family bakery, owning a car restoration/body shop, and using cars as a metaphor for stripping down to rebuild.#fathersonrelationship #adviceformen #modernfatherhood #adultchildren #lifelessonsformen #raisingmen #raisingkids #mantalk Channel Focus Areas:“What Fathers Should Teach Their Sons”“How to Be a Better Father”“Father Son Relationship Advice”“Mistakes Fathers Make”“Lessons Every Man Should Learn”Follow James: https://instagram.com/jeyblac Also, if you've made it this far, don't forget to:1. subscribe to the channel, 2. turn on the notifications,3. like this video, 4. leave a comment, and5. share this content with someone who needs it.The DSP: https://thedearsonpodcast.com Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors: Shop DSN Merch: https://dear-son-merch.creator-spring.com/listing/the-dear-son-show Love Kisha J Studios: https://lovekishaj.com My ebook: https://thedearsonpodcast.com/dsp-merch-%26-digital/ols/products/20lifepromptsv1My book (physical): https://thedearsonpodcast.com/dsp-merch-%26-digital/ols/products/dear-son-what-i-wish-my-father-told-me-physical-copyLet’s connect socially: https://instagram.com/thedearsonpodcast https://facebook.com/thedearsonpodcast The Three Foundational Pillars of the DSP Community1.
