Husband First, Father Second: The Vital Role of Men in Family Life

What does it mean to be masculine? How can men be better husbands and fathers? Why do kids need their dads?

Dr. Pat Fagan sits down with us to unpack the role of men in family life. In this two-part series, he discusses why sons and daughters need to play with their dad, the current masculinity crisis, and why marriage is fundamental to family life.

Dr. Fagan also gives relationship advice to men who hope to be great husbands and fathers. Fatherhood is essential to society.
