The Importance of Setting Rules for Yourself as a Parent

As a dad or parent, it is crucial to establish rules for yourself rather than focusing solely on rules for your children. The standards and principles we hold ourselves to are more significant than the standards we impose on our kids. In the absence of clear boundaries and practices, chaos and confusion can arise. Recognizing the need for guidance, the podcast offers 'The Stoic Parent': 10 commandments inspired by the wisdom of the Stoics of Ancient Greece and Rome. Following these commandments can enhance your relationships, lead to better parenting, and create a stronger family unit.
