to give your brain a boost and learn some new things so thanks okay rob palkavitz's list empirical scientific evidence conversations with actual dads quantitative qualitative together at last here is the list right here it's really long i know but look at the list and say what are you like i don't need that good humans they kind of benefit from all of these things and i'm still working on some of these myself to this day my dad retired when i was in high school so i was almost grown but he was always around and that changed me even though i was already older and i knew at the time it was different i had always had a relationship with my dad but i'd never been able to talk to him for long periods of time because you know it was either the evening we're going to bed we're going to soccer whatever we were doing having him around all day meant that we could talk all the time funny he used to show up to pick us up at school with all the windows down in his suv and dire straits or whatever blaring on the radio was so embarrassing and my younger brothers definitely got the benefit of that major parental resource they could talk for hours and they still do they call each other all the time to talk about whatever it is they're doing my brother buys a new car when the lions are playing whatever it is that is a present involved and engaged dad and i don't want to say it was perfect everyone has difficulties and troubles no one is a perfect father but being present and involved engaged he did it but do you think i'm not itching to pick my kid up from school to be there to help with his homework to laugh with him to help him build his first computer or dollhouse or whatever it is that he's interested in you bet your buttocks i'll be there one study on papa's it was pretty general but a nice sentiment to end on said that dads teach kids to quote explore take chances overcome obstacles be braver in the presence of strangers and to stand up for themselves pretty clear from the research that present and gauge and involved dads have huge benefits and this is a continuum i don't want to shame dads who have to work in order to support the family i'm saying be as present engaged and involved as you can and you're gonna see benefits but what about moms or two dads are same-sex parents different are the benefits different come back next time to find out that's episode two thanks so much for watching everybody i super appreciate it NUMBER_TOKEN has been wild i am a dad that quitting video popped off and i know exactly why great resignation big deal for those who asked yes i did quit one of my jobs and then it freed up time in my schedule to pick up another job but either way thanks again friends i am trace i'll see you in the future
