  • This Is Why You're Here

    “Sometimes you get a glimpse into the lives of single or childrenless people and feel a tinge of jealousy. How much more time they have. What they haven’t had to worry about during the pandemic. Even the acronym D.I.N.K, can make your mouth water a bit: Dual incomes, no kids.”

    Ryan explains why the only person who we should deny is you…

  • How To Deter Them

    “There are things we don’t want our kids to do. We set up rules. We create punishments. We supervise them closely. It works...to a degree, but it’s also exhausting. Meanwhile, we neglect—as we’ve discussed a thousand times—the most powerful deterrent and the most influential motivator: Our own actions.”

    Ryan explains why you have to be your kids inspiration.

  • This Was a Wake Up Call

    “We can imagine that parents who have nearly lost a child—or parents who tragically have—operate on a different plane of consciousness than those of us who have not. A parent who had a health scare, a parent who helped a child claw their way back from an addiction, a parent who has been estranged but reunited, these people know what they missed or almost missed.”

    Ryan explains why you must be grateful for every second that you’ve got.

  • Don't Let Them Sneer

    “You’ve seen a lot. You’ve been through a lot. You know what’s up. As a parent, you have to make sure that the insight you’ve gleaned from these experiences does not turn into cynicism—and if it does from time to time, that you shield your kids from it. Because any disillusionment you might feel about people or the world or your own present circumstances is not their fault and it does not serve them well.”

    Ryan explains why you have to be sure not to infect your kids.
