Dear new parents, you have an opportunity to be better than me by not spoiling your children during the holiday season – and lucky for you, I’m going to tell you how.
So, I’m kind of an old dad – like the person among my childhood friends that isn’t a grandparent or doesn’t have an adult offspring and yes, they make fun of this every chance they get, saying things like, “You’ll be 90 at your daughter's high school graduation!” I was 39 when my first child was born, my wife was 36, and the doctors even called her pregnancy geriatric.
