There are SO MANY (dire) consequences of divorce. I could write a book. Hmmm, maybe I will. But, one of the hardest things for any single dad or mom is re-entering the dating scene. That will be our topic this Thursday July 3 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET. Dave Taylor suggested this topic and is our special co-host this week! I Couldn’t Hold a Job Today
Business Practices today simply stink. I come from show business and I was used to unreturned phone calls and unreturned letters – yes, letters. There really was such a thing! Today there are more and better tools for communication yet simple responses to most missives seems to be harder to get answered than ever before. When I Was Your Age – It was MUCH Easier
How extraordinary that these oh-so-familiar words – “When I was your age” – now have a completely opposite meaning! There was a time when parents often exhorted these words to induce guilt, motivation, and/or reason in their children to excel. Today’s generation of parents is the first perhaps in history that can’t realistically expect – across the entire generation – that their children will do better than they themselves did. That is a powerful statement, but I believe it to be true to the core of my being! Don’t be Naive about Your Kids and #DRUGSThursday, June 26, 2014 Featured guests: Cherylyn Harley LeBon – Co-Chairman of the Project 21 National Advisory Board – for “Political Talk.” Pastor Drew Sams for “Spiritual Talk.” Today’s radio show is inspired by this week’s world and local events…and this week’s column, My Son Is a Drug Addict. Robbie Remmes in the Holy Bowly at Park CityOn the last day of the season at Park City, I met a very cool skier and nice guy, Robbie Remmes. They had just held this crazy event called the Holy Bowly in both the half-pipe and this skate-park like snow area and we went in it. Well, he went in it and I video’d. Also watched Robbie get some air off one of the jumps higher up in the park and do some tricks on some obstacles. All-in-all, way cool! Parenting Without Losing Yourself at #DadChat
How many parents do you know who have abdicated themselves to their role as dad or mom? How many parents live their lives vicariously through their kid(s)? How can we be the Best Parent we can be yet still maintain our individuality, personal growth, and follow our own passions? Angie Mozilo is our co-host this week and has been a great friend of #DadChat since we began a little over three years ago. |
