As the late great country music artist, Mac Davis, once sang, “Oh, Lord, it’s hard to be humble!” And in our current culture and the competitive, “me-obsessed” environment that our kids are growing up in, these words have never been more spot on. Join the fellas this week, as they kick around the topic of raising humble kids.

We live in a culture that is for the glorification of self. Our culture and a lot of our homes struggle to produce humble kids.
“If you have to toot your own horn, your horn ain’t worth tootin’” – Bill Myers Sr
We need to teach them how to express their views modestly. How to share praise and blame.
Learning to accept failure is key.
It’s important to model a lack of defensiveness.
