You're A Great Parent! (Even Though You're Afraid You Suck)

About You're A Great Parent! (Even Though You're Afraid You Suck)

Filmmaker, Dad, Husband and Human Eric Schaeffer muses about life raising children. Like calling your best friend to download, while listening to Eric you might identify or not… but at least not feel as alone! The nice and the not-so-nice. The shiny surface and dark underbelly. The funny, tragic, sublime and scary of this incredible journey. Most of us feel it all but are afraid/ashamed to admit some of it to ourselves let alone discuss it with anyone else. In Eric you have a confidant and a champion! This is the road his podcast walks. Join him in remembering why we all have signed up for the most gorgeous of endeavors - raising kids - while dodging those oncoming trains - and embracing them when alas, they splatters us on to the sidewalk!
