In this week's thought-provoking episode of TUF, Robbie dives deep into the complexities of parenting, focusing on emotional regulation, discipline strategies, and the controversial topic of corporal punishment.

Robbie explores why kids should be seen as developing individuals—not miniature adults—and why it's critical to balance discipline with empathy and guidance. He candidly shares how his own perspectives on spanking and authoritarian parenting have evolved since becoming a dad. Highlighting the importance of emotional regulation in both parents and children, Robbie discusses strategies for fostering a healthy connection and building a foundation of trust and respect without resorting to fear-based discipline.

Whether you're questioning traditional parenting methods or simply striving to raise emotionally intelligent, compassionate kids, this episode challenges listeners to reflect on their parenting approaches. Tune in as Robbie encourages parents to lead by example, promoting thoughtful discipline, genuine connection, and emotional intelligence in the next generation.

Key topics include:

  • Emotional regulation for parents and kids
  • Why children shouldn't be treated as miniature adults

  • Authoritarian vs. connected parenting
  • Building lasting legacies through empathetic parenting
