Tell me something interesting? 674 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 4: Do you know what is really going on my world? 675 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 4: The fact that we just had a really lovely conversation 676 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 4: during that song about you know, pump up. 677 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 5: Songs the morning and get your getting kids to school, 678 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 5: because I know in my house it can be incredibly 679 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 5: difficult at times. 680 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 3: And I know there's people in the car right now 681 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 3: and they just. 682 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: Kick the kids out the school gate and taking a 683 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 4: deep breath and then are probably going on to the 684 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 4: next part of their day. That may be dropping the 685 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 4: other kids somebody somewhere, or it might be going to work, 686 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 4: or it might be going to look after an elderly parent. 687 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 3: And I'm sure that does get to you at times, 688 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 3: and you know it is. There's so many elements of family. 689 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 4: So I just wanted to tell you a little story 690 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 4: about a survey and how I mean this has come 691 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: out of America, so I'd be really interested to hear 692 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 4: about what it's like here. But over half of Americans 693 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 4: say that their parent is their best friend. Know that 694 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 4: there's a lot of chat around that, especially when you 695 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 4: have young kids and you've got teens and still, yeah, 696 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 4: we've spoken about that too, where you try to find 697 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 4: the fine line between not being their friend really and 698 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 4: being their parent. That's really important. They don't need more friends, 699 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 4: they've got friends at school. But as parents get older 700 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 4: and they are heading into their golden years, the value 701 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 4: of having a friendship with them is incredible because you. 702 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 3: Get to. 703 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 4: You get to sometimes experience new things if they're well enough, 704 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 4: or you go out on shopping trips that you wouldn't have, 705 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 4: or you're trying new few foods or you're doing things 706 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 4: because you want your parents to experience continue to experience life, 707 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 4: and in turn you're doing great things as well. 708 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 5: I find it's strange though maybe it's different with dads 709 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 5: and their sons. But I would never go into detail 710 00:33:54,560 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 5: with my dad about, say a relationship, where to hear 711 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 5: that my sisters will go into detail about relationships and 712 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 5: things talking to mum. So maybe daughters and mothers open 713 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 5: up and share a little bit more traditionally than dads 714 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 5: and sons. 715 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,879 Speaker 1: Do you remember what Matthew McConaughey said to us. 716 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: What did he say about his advice, his advice as 717 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 2: a father to his son. So he said, first of all, 718 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 2: first and foremost the first sort of eleven twelve years of. 719 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: A child's life, you have to be a father. 720 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 2: You have to You've got to lay the ground rules 721 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 2: and you set that child moral's values to be like 722 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 2: that for the rest of their lives. And then after that, 723 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 2: remember he said, you've got to go from being a 724 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: father to being more of a brother. Remember he said, 725 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 2: so when they become teenagers, they can feel like they 726 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 2: can talk to you if there is something wrong as 727 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: more of a brother figure. 728 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,720 Speaker 1: Now you want to be more of a brother figure 729 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: than a father figure. 730 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 5: They're going to need you to be a father the 731 00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 5: entire way through. 732 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 4: Didn't he all so say, now that we're talking about 733 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 4: Matthew mcconae, something about that you should give you kids 734 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 4: kind of three wild cards or three free get out 735 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,439 Speaker 4: of jail free passes, for example. And it doesn't matter 736 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 4: where you are or what has happened, or what the 737 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 4: hell you have done. Yep, you can call me. I 738 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 4: will come and get you. We will go home safely. 739 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 4: I won't ask you anything. 740 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: You're just going to be all right, all right, all right, alright, alright, 741 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: all right. If he gives you three al rights. 742 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 5: But I think he also said a successful parent or 743 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,479 Speaker 5: the way he judges it is that if his kids 744 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 5: are around the age of eighteen and they still feel 745 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 5: they can still come to him and share, then that's 746 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 5: a win.
