He further continued,
“I think all parents go through the same thing. Their kids think they’re out of touch, they don’t know what’s going on. They don’t realize we’ve been through all these things, and we’re trying to pass that experience and knowledge onto our kids to make their lives a little bit easier and help them avoid making some of the mistakes we’ve made.”
