b'As we\\u2019ve said before, each of us as parents have to try to give what we didn\\u2019t get as kids. The attention. The support. The understanding. Whatever it is, we have to try our best to be better for our kids.That can be encouraging them to become who they are\\u2013even if you don\\u2019t agree or understand. Or making sure to give them space to fail, while showing them support and encouragement to try again. Or maybe it\\u2019s choosing to be an ancestor, not a ghost.\\u2709\\ufe0f Sign up for the Daily Dad email: DailyDad....'
