“When he was a young teenager, Lewis Puller Jr. got himself an afternoon paper route. It was one of those things that his parents insisted on so he could learn responsibility and hard work and all that. And it was certainly good for that. It was also good for something even better. One day, Lewis’ bike got a flat tire, so his dad (Chesty Puller, the most decorated Marine in US history) drove him on the route. The next day, it rained, so Chesty did it again. On the third day, Lewis’ dad got the car and drove him again anyway--even though he didn’t need to. Because it was the excuse he was looking for to spend time together.”

Learn why we must make excuses to spend time with or kids, and why all time is quality time, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
