Warren Farrell |The Boy Crisis and Dad Deprivation - Art of Charm Ep.#765
The role of the father in raising children is often downplayed in society, but what do fathers bring to the table that mothers do not, why does the absence of a father have such long-lasting effects, and what steps can we take today to be there for our children?

-What role do family dinner nights have in a child’s development and what 5 things can you do to make those family dinners constructive rather than destructive?
-What steps can we take today to improve as parents?
The father in many shows and movies seems to be there just for comic relief by being a hardass or totally incompetent while the mother is portrayed as “the real parent.”
But the father’s role in raising kids is significantly more important than we tend to give it credit for.
As Warren Farrell stated, “Children who have father involvement are far less likely to be obese, far less likely to have ADHD, far less likely to do worse in every single academic area, and far less likely to be depressed or commit suicide.”
And those are just a few of the effects that a good father has on his kids.
It’s crucial there be a balance of masculine and feminine influence in a child’s life in order for that child to grow into a well-rounded human being able to handle the ups and downs and twists and turns of life. It is the tension created by the difference between the parents that allows their children to find a happy medium that works for who they are.

Through the Arch at Anglin's Square, deep into the famous Lauderdale-by-the-Sea sandy beach
What surprises me the most is how cozy people are here. Everyone is mellow and compared to the ever nasty/noisy Barcelona's chiringuitos, even the constant music at the Aruba Beach Cafe gave me a good vibe and set the right atmosphere.

Walking with a dog on the hills behind Barcelona (Colserola)
A perfect November Sunday doing my "standard" 17Km walk around the hills behind Barcelona. The place is called Colserola and it's accessible from the metro L3 stop "Mundet". Then you walk till the town of Sant Cugat where for the price of a normal metro ticket you can ride back to Barcelona.

Back to Stockholm, leaving the secret island
A simple video to show the way back to the mainland, a funny thing was that towards the end of the video we finished the fuel. Luckily the captain had a reserve. 😎

Waterski in Sweden
It is apparently harder than it looks. Our friend needed a few tries but he managed to get it right. If you listen towards the end someone was playing the James Bond theme song 😂

To the exotic islands east of Stockholm
A thick, hardly accessible archipelago of tiny islands totally cut off from civilization. My friend took me to his "summer house" (apparently they are a big thing in Sweden) in a tiny island. It felt like mooring at the pier of a James Bond movie lair.
