If you’ve ever been to a playground, you’ve probably seen a kid fall down and “hurt” themselves. I say “hurt” in quotes because sometimes kids can act a little pansy-assed. If they cry, the’ll get attention from mommy.

My teenage daughter and son and I were on vacation last week visiting family. For us that meant hanging out with cousins and grandparents, going for swims in the pool, hitting the beach for body surfing and boogie boarding.

I’m a single dad with half-time custody of two teenage children – a seventeen-year-old girl, and a thirteen-year-old boy. And despite [...]
Forty miles into our 50-mile bike ride, my teen son and I started talking about burritos. He wanted spicy beef. I wanted chicken in green sauce. More than being hungry and tired from a long bike ride that wasn’t yet through, we were bonding over something that belonged to “just us”.
