Show Notes:

1:00  Most of us dread this conversation

1:35  We just got back from a cabin retreat

1:55  On a hayride we heard about pumpkins, birds and bees

2:45  One of the parents had just had "the conversation"

3:30  Do I want a 10 year old telling my son or should I?

4:10  I usually research how to do these things

5:00  The boys are busting each other's chops

6:00  Here's my gut, I'll give him what he needs to know

6:25  First, it comes from a place of love and intimacy 

7:25  "You did that to her?!?!"

8:20  Remember, kids have access to the internet

9:02  I'll be the one sharing this because of XXX

9:55  When it comes from a parent first, they will come to us too

Ryan has decided to share what he's learned. FBI Dads is Ryan's life mission. Ryan welcomes YOU to join him in this journey to help dads connect, be present and be a positive influence on their children.
