I raised two kids to adulthood and then had an “oopsie” baby in my forties, essentially starting all over again! My advice to parents is respect. Adults always want kids to respect them, but oddly don’t extend the same respect to their children. Respecting your child as an individual, as their own person, is key. Respect cannot be demanded, it must be earned, and you can set the example by respecting your child from day one.
Yes!!!!!!!!!! We had a son, and we have always treated him with respect from day one. We must earn our children's respect. They are tiny little individuals. Many people look at you like you're crazy when you tell them this.
I hope you don’t ever say oopsie in front of that child. I’m constantly having to help my baby sister heal her heartache bc one of her friends moms called her that when she was little and she’s gone through so much therapy and STILL believes she was unwanted bc she’s an oopsie baby. She’ll never be convinced anyone wanted her. My parents were too old to do things they did with me and my other siblings that were their earliest kids and they were too arrogant to see they messed up
10 stoic tips for raising great kids: 1. Show, don’t tell 2. Be ready when they are 3. Be consistent 4. Let them fail 5. Teach them to learn 6. Focus on what matters 7. Give them presence 8. It’s all a phase 9. Strap in 10. Read some books on parenting
I'm sitting in a car with a crying kid at 10am. I try explaining stoicism and how it can benefit her and how she handles things she doesn't like. I fail miserably. I turn to Ryan and the Daily Stoic for help and just 20 hours before there's a brand new video teaching me everything I need to know to help my little girl. Thanks, Ryan.
Yeeessss🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 We may have suffered our parents suffering, and our kids may even have suffered our suffering, but knowing what we know now, our grandchildren do not have to suffer our suffering as well, knowing what we know now ❣️💯
Being a parent is the highlight of my life! At 65 I look back at raising my son to be a man was/ is most important. Today he is a loving father with an adoring wife. When my son was young, I remember looking out the window on a rainy day and asking my son if I should wear a coat, I let him make decision's, ya dad wear a coat!
New parent here. Im loving every minute of parenting and it is something that has given my life more meaning and purpose. Thank you for compiling these Gems 🎉
Working with high school students and motivational techniques that they could use immediately led to them realizing that everything that they have experienced, are learning and will learn in their future builds their knowledgebase of information as a bio-computerr that has the ability to think on their own and can make mistakes from that knowledge. But they are self-correcting off of their illusions (their misconceptions) and the delusions (false projections) that other people will push at them. Sensory input --> mental validation that validates from past experiences --> emotional valuing that drives them to --> Actions that they can take. All through an exercise that shows them how they think. Once they get to that point, the really cool stuff happens for them.
Use the Alexander Technique to better implement stoic principles - AT allows us to use our minds and bodies in the most efficient way - purely from a bio-mechanical pov - Frederick Mathias Alexander (Australian actor born 1880 ish) called it taking control of our psycho-physical organism - counter intuitively the process involves mentally ceding control - stopping yourself from trying to be right in your ‘use of yourself’ - another fave Alexander phrase
I do not have kids, nor will I for a long time(I’m a kid technically), but even before I became a stoic I always saw a lot of value in it. After becoming a stoic, I feel that it’s almost a necessity as parenthood is a pretty huge part of life that gives so much meaning. I have been thinking about this topic for a while and seeing this video on my recommended made me light up because I knew this was going to talk about the right type of parenting - the one I’ve been thinking about so much recently, and I was not wrong
Remember, even Marcus Aurelius. The greatest philosopher of all time failed at raising his son. Nothing in life will prepare you or make you immune to failing as a parent. No one is immune to it. Not even the greatest philosopher.
This is an awesome video. A good reading list. I've worked with traumatized kids for years ... ironically, now it's personal. My daughter is married to an emotionally abusive man that is having a devastating impact on my 9 year old grandson. He is not his biological father. I'm in the position of doing damage control. I'm sure I can find some useful learning in the books suggested.

Thank you for touching on this topic!! I find in the self development/ consciousness expansion content online there is not enough focus on raising children AND evolved consciousness content FOR kids of all ages. Like, how EPIC would a cartoon centered on stoic values be!?!!?! 🤘... I believe it's all on its way. Wish I had it now for my 9 and 11 year old boys.

So, I heard about Ryan Holiday and so I thought I would check him out here on youtube. I like to go all the way back to the very first videos when I check out someone or a certain topic. First video he's selling a coin, second video he's selling a print, third video he's selling another print. This guy seems like a salesman to me. Reply
Really nice video, I love Ryan Holiday, but why wearing a “666 the number of the beast” t-shirt? I really like Iron Maiden and I’m aware the song lyrics is not satanist. But people don’t know. I can’t forward this video for so many friends

A key is to be honest about one’s mistakes as well.
12:40 ~ the section title says let the fail, not "let them fail."
I was asking 2 weeks ago in one of your videos for your recommended books for kids. Now I have been reminded that it's me who needs to read more parenting books. 😂 I would love to have that Daily Dad book in addition to your 7 books I have.😂

Make a video on top Stoic books
Where do you get your background music from?
Demonstrate how you fail and deal with that, Demonstrate integrity and accountability.
Just had a baby 6 days ago.
Buckle up and enjoy. Congratulations

You nailed it, he’s a plagiarist and he butchers Stoicism and Philosophy.
I advice you to read Sahih al-Bukhari in English translation.
Why does Casey Neistat wear sunglasses indoors?
Do you know who you’re talking about? Hahahah
That mention of Kobe 😢
Here before the loser that comments on Ryan’s hat lol
Fr tho why do people care if he wears his hat backwards
Really nice video, I love Ryan Holiday, but why wearing a “666 the number of the beast” t-shirt? I really like Iron Maiden and I’m aware the song lyrics is not satanist. But people don’t know. I can’t forward this video for so many friends
Quite the opposite. Just forward it and let people know there’s nothing wrong there. Let go. Let them learn.
You look like you've since the fall of the roman empire
