Hey, folks. I'm Jake. 40 year old, father of two sons. Chad is 15, Josh is 13. I've been divorced for a few years and have my sons about half the time so I'm lucky to be able to be a big influence on them.

I'm an advocate of rules and consequences. I have always believed that you have to use what works when it comes to teaching lessons, especially with boys who can so often be difficult. Over the years, I have used just about every type of correction and find that many things can work depending on the situation. I also think that you can't rule out anything regardless of a boy's age. They sometimes need more correction as they get older because they are capable of getting into so much more trouble.

I have always found it extremely helpful to talk to other fathers about their own experiences. It's often the best way to find out what your own parenting style should be by learning from the success and mistakes of other fathers.
