Every father should have honest conversations with his son. In this episode of The Dear Son, Show, we explore the lessons fathers must teach their sons before adulthood.Dear Son: The Time Is Now (Parents & Young Men, Don’t Wait)Hosts Jey Blac and D Johns use a birthday call with a 20-year-old son—turning into a repeated condom and responsibility talk—to stress that if parents are asking “when is the time,” it’s already time. They discuss how rapid shifts in technology, especially AI, make “in my day” advice ineffective unless parents first understand their kids’ perspective, stay relatable, and anchor them to enduring principles and morality. The conversation warns against procrastination, overreliance on convenience, and letting social media “crowds” define truth or personal value, emphasizing that being overlooked doesn’t reduce worth. They challenge parents to act now, communicate without judgment, hold standards at home, and consider “at what cost” when chasing speed, money, or new tools.#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.
