So I told you I was at this Airbnb here in Maui on the strip we took and, uh, oh, man.
The mattresses were not good.
I did not sleep while the kids did not sleep.
Well, I wish that they had Helix mattresses.

Welcome to the daily dad podcast where we provide one lesson every single day to help you with your most important job being a parent.
I'm Ryan Holiday and I draw these lessons from ancient philosophy, modern psychology, practical wisdom and insights from parents just like you all over the world.
Thank you for listening and we hope this helps.
You're probably wrong.
Look, if they're not little anymore, if they're more or less on their own, if it's not about money or some real or urgent threat to their health, like addiction, you're probably wrong.
If you're arguing or fighting with your kids about something, you're wrong.
Okay, not about the specifics of the issue, although again, probably, but for even making it an issue in the first place.
We've talked before about this book, adult children of emotionally immature parents.
And one of the things most of the parents in that book have in common is how they make everything about them.
We've also talked about the tragedy of parents who for whatever reason choose religious or political or cultural beliefs over connection with their children.
We've talked about the stoic idea of remembering that you don't have to have an opinion about everything that nothing and nobody, children, especially is asking to be judged by you.
So step back, consider their perspective, consider letting things go, apologize, reach back out, try to repair, remember what's actually important.
Remember that success as a parent is raising independent adults who make their own decisions. Well, this is that.
Check yourself before you wreck anything else.
