I noticed there’s a few parents and wannabe parents knocking round. How do you want to raise your kids? What values etc do you want them to have?

    They learn far more by watching than by listening. If you want to have great kids, be a great person. That was where I failed them.

    Beyond that, responsibility and intellectual curiosity and independent thought. I mostly nailed that last one… those little assholes never listen to me even when I have receipts—it has to be receipts they give a damn about. I couldn’t be more proud, but they are difficult.
