You Want To Be A Geeky Parent

When you are geeky, you are geeky for others. When you want to be cool, you want to be cool for yourself. Be a Geeky Parent.

 

Are you a geeky parent leader or a cool one? I bet we all want to think we are the cool parent. The one who our kids love to go to, and their friends love to come over to our house. The ones that give them whatever they ask for. The one who other parents look at as the cool parent at the park.

I always wanted to be this parent, the cool one. Until I listened to a thought leader, advise about being a geek. We all should seek out to be geeky parents. Geeky parents are those who are all in to know everything they can about their families world. They “geek out” about their kids and spouses. They want to know everything they can about them and their world.

My wife is an excellent example of this. If you want to know anything about the Marvel universe, you can ask her. She knows it all. Not because she loves the superhero world but because our young son made a connection with this world. He loved everything Marvel. So guess what, my wife learned too. 

Get to know those you lead. Learn about them and their world. When we want to be cool, we want to be cool for us. We like how it makes us feel. When we become a geek for our family that becomes our world. We look for ways to understand and build up others. Don’t worry about being the cool parent. Become the geek of the family.
