Brett Young On Being A Girl Dad
Brett Young is the dad to two toddlers, Presley, who’s 3, and Rowan who is 1 ½.
Eventually, they’ll grow up to be young girls, and then teenagers, and Brett is so glad his father-in-law gave him some great advice about how to avoid getting caught in conversations that are beyond his ability to understand.
“My wife’s dad has two girls. Now I have two girls. My dad just had a boy. I thought forever that I would lean on my dad for parenting advice, and I do because he was an incredible dad, but it’s a very specific thing to be a dad that only had girls. And my father-in-law was able to just give advice about how entirely acceptable it is to stay out of every conversation that’s outside of your skill set. And so, I’m like, I don’t know what’s happening here. These girls seem like you’re having a conversation that is completely foreign to me. So, I’m gonna be over here. You just let me know if I need to like take out the trash or something, cause I’m hangin’.”
