Ask Dad: Life’s Score Card: Keeping Track or Letting Go?

Send us a text

Welcome to Ask Dad with me, Will Snow! Today, we’re diving into the tricky world of life’s score cards. From keeping tabs on who does what in a relationship to silently tallying career wins and losses, the habit of “keeping score” often sneaks into our lives. But does it help us grow, or does it just fuel resentment? When should we hold on to accountability, and when is it time to let go and focus on the bigger picture?

We’ll also tackle a listener question from a husband concerned about his pregnant wife’s decision to give birth outside of a hospital. He’s trying to figure out how to express his feelings without falling into the trap of “shoulding” on each other—“you should do this, you should do that.” How do we have respectful, open conversations about our fears and hopes without losing trust?

So, grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and let’s dig into what really counts in life—and how to let go of the “shoulds” holding us back.

The love is real and the man is real - we talk about it all. The good. The bad. The Dad.
