Embracing Whimsy in Parenthood

"It’s exhausting to be a kid. Because they’re clever and creative and you’re not. Because they’re pure and idealistic and you’ve been hardened by the world you’ve seen. Because they’re still uniquely themselves, yet to be beaten down or corrupted. 

'Grown ups never understand anything by themselves,' the always childlike Saint-Exupéry would write, 'and it is exhausting for children to have to provide explanations over and over again.'"

Ryan explains why it's so important to get on your kid's level on today's Daily Dad Podcast.
