Don’t Let the HATERS Get You or Your Kids at #DadChat Thursday

Posted on July 20, 2015 by Bruce Sallan

The Haters are coming! The Haters are coming! Sadly, they are already here and “they” can affect us all. One wrong step (in their eyes) and they go for the jugular. We’ve seen it happen in the public sphere when a politician or “star” says something off-color or simply makes a mistake. Boom – let’s get him! BUT, it can and does happen to our kids in the micro world of their lives. We’ve all read about the girls who have committed suicide due to HATERS in their Social Media World. #DadChat will TAKE THEM ON this Thursday, July 23 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET.

Teaching Our Kids to Take (Smart) #RISKS at #DadChat

Posted on March 29, 2015 by Bruce Sallan

How many times have you “gone for it” only to find it worked? Sometimes, in life, taking a risk is the BEST option and the BEST way to go. Are our kids willing to take a chance, in the right circumstance? My son took a HUGE risk – which I wrote about – and it paid off in wonderful and unexpected ways. THAT is our topic this Thursday, April 2 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9ET.

The Empty-Nest Comes to #DadChat

Posted on March 22, 2015 by Bruce Sallan

The Empty-Nest Syndrome. We all hear about it but when our kids are young we believe it’s so far away. Trust me, it happens in the blink-of-an-eye. We are a few months away from our second son leaving for college. Are you prepared for the empty-nest? Will your kids even be able to leave home? More kids are returning home – after college – to live than ANY time in our history – I believe it’s over 80% for extended periods of time! This Thursday, March 26 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET we will TAKE on the Empty-Nest for those in the throes of it and those that will face it – hopefully!
