In this episode, I had a heartfelt conversation with my friend Dan, who shared his personal journey as a parent of a transgender teenager. Dan opened up about the emotional moment when his teenager bravely came out as a boy named Alex. The episode delves into their family dynamics, interactions with the school, and the overwhelming support they received. Dan's vulnerability and honesty shed light on the importance of acceptance and understanding in parenting. Through Dan's story, we are reminded of the significance of listening to and supporting our children, no matter the challenges they face. Join us in this intimate and enlightening discussion on the DadStuff Podcast. Hi, I’m Paul Vasquez, a dad and grandpa, and I created this show to reach out to other dads who have found themselves questioning if they are doing this “dad thing” right. I want to find out how they work through the challenges fatherhood throws at them to help other dads who face similar challenges. I want to find out what they learned from those moments to make myself a better dad. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedadstuffpodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedadstuffpodcast/support

Today I am talking to my good friend Ron Sweetman.  Ron was my boss years ago before I joined the state worker workforce.  He always carried himself in a professional, ethical, and compassionate manner.  His influence has stayed with me as an example of how to treat people with empathy and understanding that we are all from different places, but have so much in common.  I hope you enjoy our talk about early childhood influences and how his growing up made him the dad and coach he is today.  If you would like to learn more about Ron you can reach him at his website www.CoachRonSweetman.com and on LinkedIn at Coach Ron Sweetman.  As always, this show only grows if you share with your friends, please like and subscribe as well as share with your friends.  And be sure to follow us on Twitter @TheDadStuffPod and on Instagram @TheDadStuffPodcast.  Email questions or show ideas to The [email protected]. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedadstuffpodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedadstuffpodcast/support
