Keep the Little Promises

<p>&quot;We tell our kids a lot of things. <br/><br/>We tell them that we love them. That we’ll support them no matter what. That they can come to us with anything. <br/><br/>We also tell them little things: We tell them we’ll be home by six. We tell them that if they clean up their toys they can have a treat. We tell them that sure, next time we’re here, we can do what they want. We tell them when they’re older, they can do this or that. <br/><br/>It’s not that we don’t mean those little promises; it’s just that because they’re small, we forget. Or we were really only saying them to distract them, or to change the subject. Because we were assuming they would forget, too.&quot;<br/><br/>Ryan describes why those little promises are so important, and why we must treat them as sacred, on today&apos;s Daily Dad Podcast.<br/><br/>***</p><p>If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
