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.

Don't overthink it. Take them out. Yes, school is important. Yes, team practice is important.

Yes, routine is important. Yes, commitments are important. Yes, yes, yes. But you know what? No one has ever looked back as their kids grew up or at the end of their own life and thought, perfect attendance was worth it. No, you'll look back and remember that three-day weekend you snuck in. You'll remember the day they woke up not feeling well,

so you kept them out of class, but later they rallied, and so you ran some errands together, watched a

movie. You'll remember that business trip you turned into a family trip, where even though they missed

a week of school, you got in a bunch of museums and crossed some stuff off the bucket list.

You'll remember and be glad you extended spring break or that half day you just decided

to skip entirely.

And even more, they'll remember.

Whether it turns out to be quality time or garbage time, it is time.

Time together.

Time out in the world.

Time in this fleeting moment of life.

School is important.

This is important too.
