You’ve saved lives, marriages and families by speaking the truth in a world of immoral self-centeredness. I benefit from one of your truths daily: the reality that boys need an alpha-male dad in the home every day. When I hear callers choosing to create a life without a father, I turn my sadness of their reality into gratitude for my husband.
We have two teenagers. Our oldest is a daily reminder of “I wanted a baby, not a teenager!” While he lives in a world where testosterone trumps any and all female opinions, my husband is there to challenge, guide, direct and role model for him how to treat and respect a woman, his wife, and our son’s mom – me! When I told my husband that our son had apologized to me for being rude, my husband turned and got right in our son’s face and said “Yeah, but did you mean it???” My husband holds our boys to a high standard of behavior and respect. I appreciate and admire that, but I know I would not be able to enforce it without him. What many single-parent females fail to realize is it may only take a sperm to make a male, but it takes a father to make a man.
