Daniel Huerta says it's not uncommon for fathers to tell him they're worried that they're “messing up” their kids. Huerta, vice president of Parenting and Youth at Focus on the Family, says may of the fathers he works with have “fears around the gender issues [and] sexuality issues” in today's culture, and says dads “don't know where to start and how to counter the messages that are out there."Fathers today are also having to navigate heightened levels of anxiety among kids and teens, says Huerta, a licensed clinical social worker. “And then there are dads that have [a] tremendous amount of ... demands on their life, from work and from the home, with multiple kids and just a variety of things that are surrounding them, and they just find themselves tired, worn out, and distracted,” he says.Fortunately, there are practical tools, such as asking simple questions, that Huerta says can help fathers connect with their children in a significant way. With Father’s Day around the corner, Huerta joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to offer dads a practical road map for how they can move toward having stronger relationships with their children and navigate the parental challenges of the current culture. Enjoy the show!
