I like to engage with pretty much anyone I meet wherever I am or wherever I go. It may be in a foreign country such as on my recent trip to Africa or simply sitting next to someone on a chair lift when skiing. If the person is young, I’m especially interested in the choices they will be making and I often ask personal questions about whether they are in a relationship or not. If I sense they are open to these questions, I will probe further.
Dating: perhaps one of the scariest words in the English language. But, like so many things, it really is all about our attitude. We control very little in our lives, but we do have full control over our attitude.

Today’s radio show is inspired by this week’s “A Dad’s Point-of-View” column, How to Stay Cool to Your Kids, but we will, as usual, cover a gamut of subjects.
Evan Schwartz is simply AWESOME on skis in the Pipe. He’s also a terrific guy with no attitude though he definitely gets ALTITUDE! Check him out and drool….
One of my favorite mantras is that the job of being a parent is being our kids best parent rather than their best friend. As strongly as I believe in that, I also believe we can be cool to our kids by doing things that support being their best parent. This may seems at odds, but truly it’s not.
This Old Guy was recognized by various kids in the Terrain Park at Park City…now, the lift operators are asking him if he’s going to do the pipe today! He’s developing a “rep!”
