Holy wall of text there Batman! I’d be despondent if I had to read all that, no matter what age I was.

Public school kids have dads who golf? Interesting

Two of the biggest feeder neighborhoods to my public high school were country clubs.


I used to go hit balls with my dad all the time. He was trying to get better for when he played with his work buddies.

fathers who sit on the couch and play video games as soon as they get home from work.

It's a lot more common than you think. I didn't dad's were like this either until I started teaching public school kids.

The private school kids dads are all working a side hustle after work to afford private school

Hated playing baseball w my father. Hated it.

Good post. I feel a lot of men these days have kids because they feel like that’s what they’re supposed to do and don’t realize how selfless you have to be to raise kids and be a good father. It is why I decided not to have any because I don’t think I have that selflessness in me and at 34 can admit selfishness is my biggest fault. I saved a video of John Cena’s response when asked about not having kids because I think he nails it and shares my same thoughts

I love the way Brits say "YouChube"

My son is in 11. I personally work him out at least 5 days a week. Unless there's a school workout going on.
It is the most cherished and fun thing that we do.

I'll never understand father's that aren't present in the boys life.
