In this episode of The Cave Podcast, I sat down with my son Jason Wilson II and Cave of Adullam students Bruce Collins III, Elisha Nunn and Kaden Johnson to expose the danger of deflecting discipline and manipulating moms.
This is great insight! I'm about to go put my boys on punishment now!😂 Really, thank you so much for providing a glimpse of the nuggets you provide these young men.❤️ Your ministry is so needed.
I love to see this teaching happening for these black young men. Kids do manipulate parents at a certain age and they need to recognize what they can do to take responsibility and accountability.
Yo!! I’m a divorced single boy mom and this was everything! Got me emotional and I appreciate this so much! Thank you! I’m hoping my son grows up to be like these amazing young men
I love this conversation. I don't think men realize just how powerful they truly are and why it's important that discipline is introduced to harness that power. I'm just now learning that lesson as a woman and pouring into my mother all the love and kindness she showed me. It was a great kindness she showed me by disciplining me and my life is blessed for it. I'm grateful. Glory to God.
OMG, I can't thank you enough for this powerful video! The power of this video is rooted in the fact that it goes beyond the truths that you communicate in your monologs and adds the honest, intimate, transparent conversations with these young men! As a single mother of a young man who has visions of greatness with behavior that doesn't always align, this is one of the best Mother's Day gifts that I have ever received! I am going to share this video with my son and have a comprehensive conversation about this topic.
Great episode Mr. Wilson. I also grew up in a single parent household. Discipline is definitely needed for our boys. Me being a single father raising my 10yo son alone is no easy task & sometimes my son manipulates my mom. But I try to stay on top of it to not let it happen. Thanks for sharing this episode. I enjoyed it.
Wow...Such A Powerful Message!!! All Praise, Honor & Glory TMH!!!☝🙌😊💜 Thank You Mr. Wilson & also to the four young men on your platform for sharing their stories. GOD Bless You All🙋 I will be sharing this important video unto others.
Om goodness. Watching this really filled me up!!! Idk how else to say it. I didn’t have any healthy male influence growing up. And at age 34 with a 5 year old boy, I’m literally just NOW seeing what I’ve been missing out on. Where some of my imbalances stem from. I’m SO looking forward to the right kind of love from the man God is preparing for me, as well as watching my little one become a man. He already manipulates me in the same ways these guys described 😐😂 (we gone work on that) but there’s also never been another male in my life that has loved me the way he does!
YOu are doing a fantastic job to coach them through this now, because majority of all boys grow up to still carry their childish habits into adult relationships and manipulate the women they involve in. Which is toxic and most women accept it. sheesh! At least you will mold them to catch this behavior early and have conviction when they attempt to manipulate their partner int he future as adults. good job jason!!
So, I've been with a woman off and on for about 11+ years. I was there trying to be father and or father figure to kids not my own. As I try to walk in Christ to preach and teach the gospel to them and myself, I have been making moves towards marrying her, but I have learned over time that the children determine whether you will be that actual father in their lives. Having two birth children and a cousin she holds as a nephew; I find I'm lost in how to lead them stronger and teach them solid masculine and sonship values. Even when I tried, their mother seems to be the go-to no matter what because of the differences between our earnings and that I no longer live there in the house. I've grown to understand that time is precious, and my word is my bond with them. I see so many small things that they say and do that I do believe plays a part in how they will respond under more serious circumstances. Should I marry her knowing that I'm not really the person that they need and that they really don't call me dad or call me first about school stuff and all? The boys are 19 and 20 now. My Little Honey Bee is now 15. I see that their response to me plays a part in the decision to move forward in marriage. It isn't easy and I'm lost as to how to steer them from intimacy with their new girlfriends. Their mother allows girls to come over at times, not to spend the night, but they enter their bedrooms with the door closed and it truly concerns me as a man who sees them as my kids. I don't know what to do about it all. Mr. Mason, can you give me some insight as to what is the best thing to do as a wanna be Stepfather? Their fathers are in DC and or on drugs.
20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
