July 20, 2020 This Is a Chance to Learn
"There is nothing that can prepare you for being a dad, as the cliche goes. No book. No class. No amount of seeing your own parents or siblings do it. So one way to look at this thing is that it shows us how little we know. The other way, the more positive way, is to see it as something that teaches us."

Ryan describes how we can learn from the experience of being a father in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 17, 2020 You Gotta Give Them Access
"We want to make sure our kids have opportunities in life. We want to make sure that they’re not excluded or kept out. We work hard—try to make money, try to invest, try to get ahead in our careers and life so our kids can have a head start. All good. But sometimes, for all this hustle and ambition, we neglect one of the easiest ways to help them get ahead."

Ryan describes how to give your kids a head start in learning about life in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 16, 2020 Try Not to Give Them Anything Extra
"We all have issues. We know that. Our goal as fathers, as we’ve said, is to not pass them on. To stop the cycle of dysfunction. It’s a low bar, to be sure, but it's an important one: Don’t let the demons you wrestle with find softer targets in your children."

Ryan describes how important it is not to burden your children with your baggage on today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 15, 2020 Look for the Double Opportunity
"The jogging stroller lets you exercise… while spending time with your kid. The drive to school, or to soccer tournaments… is a chance to have that conversation you needed to have with your daughter. All the chores that need to be done around the house...they’re a way to teach your kids about responsibility."

Ryan discusses how you can find unexpected places to impart lessons to your child in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 14, 2020 This Could Be That Day
"It was just another day on vacation for the Roosevelts in 1921. FDR spent the morning sailing around Campobello Island with Eleanor and his two older boys. They’d had quite an adventure. Seeing a small fire on another nearby island, they rushed and put it out as a family. When they got back, FDR and his sons raced each more than a mile to a swimming hole. And then later they jumped into the Bay of Fundy together."

Find out the consequences of that swim, and what they mean for you and your family, in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 10, 2020 Remember the True Value of an Education
"You send them to great schools. You make sure they do their homework. You drill them on their flashcards. You are saving for college. You are not going to let them set their sights low like you did, or maybe you won’t accept them getting into anywhere less prestigious than you did."

But that's not the only kind of education that matters. Find out more in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 09, 2020 They Deserve to Be Sheltered (Somewhat!)
"How much should we shelter our kids from the scariness of the world? How much should we protect them from knowing about the day-to-day events of the world that they are not to blame for, that they can’t do anything about?"

Ryan discusses what we need to do to keep our kids appropriately informed and protected, on today's Daily Dad Podcast.

July 08, 2020 Don’t Teach Them What to Think, Teach Them How
"It’s tempting to tell them exactly what they can and can’t do. It’s tempting to tell them what you expect them to do, or explain how the world works. But would you have listened to that when you were their age? What did you do when your parents pretended like they knew what they were talking about?"

Ryan talks about the best way to teach your kids the important lessons that you have for them on today's Daily Dad Podcast.
