"Being there. Being present. Being available and not turning kids down." - Larry, Dad of Dads!

In this episode Donal and Matthew welcome Matthew's own dad, Larry. We had the pleasure of interviewing him while he visited recently, and he shared his continuing experience of being a dad to grown kids, as well as being a grandparent. Larry reflects on "old school" parenting, proud moments, regrets, and how the expectations of dads and family has changed over the decades.
