Bobby has never had to censor himself in front of a child before, so there are a few things he doesn’t quite understand and this episode is FULL of them.
Welcome to the part of the podcast where my distant dad justifies calling me sexy because of my career (sadly, not a joke), quotes Kung Fu Panda, continues to chew Nicorette into the microphone and gets weirdly philosophical… again. But guys, I swear Bobby’s not creepy.
Lesson number one for how to be a dad: don’t call your daughter sexy under any circumstance. If you take only one thing away from this episode, let it be that. Distant dads all around the world it’s time to learn what you can and can’t do when hanging out with your child—hint, it’s nothing like hanging out with your kids. This list includes:
Calling your daughter sexy
Hot, yeah that’s also out of bounds
Saying anything that you save for your girlfriend
Having naked photos of women out when your kids are around
Watching films that are inappropriate for their age
Dating someone who’s younger than your daughter
Bedroom-related comments, kids don’t need to hear that
It’s not that long of a list but you might want to grab a pen for this one. Dad’s this is a great one if you want to know how to communicate with your daughter. If you find yourself getting into sticky situations and starting out-of-bound conversations, then it’s time for you to tune in.
Bobby and I are on a long journey where I teach him how to be a father. Not just for ourselves but for all of the distant dads and their daughters out there. If you’re looking to rebuild your father-daughter relationship, this is an episode you need to listen to.
