| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Daily Dad podcast where we provide one lesson every day to help you |
| 0:12.3 | with your most important job being a dad. These are lessons inspired by ancient philosophy, |
| 0:17.7 | by practical wisdom, and insights from dads all over the world. |
| 0:22.8 | Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps. |
| 0:31.0 | Be careful of your implications. |
| 0:34.1 | In an early episode of the Crown, Princess Margaret and her sister, Queen Elizabeth, wax nostalgic about their loving late father, who used to refer to his daughters as his pride and joy. It was a beautiful memory, but also a painful one, because in the show, King George was more specific. He referred to the two of them as pride and joy. |
| 0:57.3 | Queen Elizabeth was pride. Margaret was joy. Only with time did the two of them realize the sad |
| 1:03.9 | implications of this remark that he was proud of one and had fun with the other and therefore |
| 1:09.9 | found less happiness in the former and less |
| 1:13.0 | pride in the latter. If only it was just a clever remark, if only there hadn't been real |

| 1:35.8 | will be the death of us, and whatever else pops out of your mouth without much thought. |
| 1:41.3 | We have to consider the implications of the words we throw around casually |
| 1:45.5 | because our kids are listening. They not only hear us, they really hear. They are always looking to |
| 1:51.3 | explain themselves in their place in the world. The things we say will come back to them when they are |
| 1:56.9 | old, and they will fit those words for better or for worse into the narrative of their |
| 2:01.7 | lives. Surely you can recall painful things from your own parents, offhanded comments, |
| 2:07.4 | dismissive gestures, passive aggressive complaints under their breath that they didn't think |
| 2:11.8 | you'd hear. Well, now the shoe is on the other foot. So watch yourself. Consider the implications. And more importantly, |
| 2:19.7 | watch how your actions heightened the meaning of your words. Hey, thank you for listening to the Daily |
