Embracing Childhood's Natural Resilience

“Your kid falls. If you’re not paying attention, they brush themselves off and keep going. But if they see the look on your face? They burst into tears. A lot of parenting is like this. Your kids naturally have the appropriate attitude—whether it’s about standardized testing or body image or what have you—but then we project our silly baggage onto them and attach undue significance to things, and that’s when stuff starts to go sideways.”

Ryan explains why you should be able to let go of what isn’t important, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
