My reverse mid-life crisis
by Roy Biancalana
The most life-changing moment of my life occurred when I realized that nothing needed to be changed.
I call this realization “my reverse mid-life crisis” because it is the opposite of what typically happens to men. Usually, when a man reaches middle-age, he becomes dissatisfied with his professional path and/or his partner, then he makes changes to find “it.”My life has been the exact opposite of that pattern. Ever since I was a kid, I have been dissatisfied with my life and chasing the illusive “it.”
Dads, sports and teens: Don’t force things
by Tim O´Connor
The father-son dynamic can be tricky, as I’m sure the mother-daughter dynamic can be tricky. For smoothing out relations among the testosterone-powered beings in a household, sports are assumed to be a slam-dunk, but that’s not always the case.
I am happy both of my boys have become sports fans and active participants, but not without some bumps in the road. Their reality and my expectations often have collided.
A game of golf can unite fathers and sons.
