Choosing Legacy: The Parent's Role in Generational Change

“We talked recently about Springsteen’s choice for parents: Will you be an ancestor or a ghost? Haunt them or help them? The story he tells about how he came to this understanding comes from his own struggles with his own father. As he explained on Broadway, when he and his wife were expecting their first kid, his father--who had always been distant and harsh--drove something like five hundred miles and showed up at Bruce’s door.”

Ryan uses the example of Bruce Springsteen’s father to explain why you should face the past and help your kids be better than you were, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
