I showed my girlfriend the movie Life Is Beautiful on the weekend. I wanted her to see it because I've taken a lot of how in trying to be a parent from that movie.

I try to make a game out of basic things to keep them entertained and happy, like getting one of my sons to look out the window to keep an eye out for his mother at a cafe. It's better then just telling him to wait and having him get upset.

Even if we don't end up with another holocaust from encroaching fascism, there could be any number of natural disasters that make you need to get scrappy whilst dealing with kids and giving them a reason to go on.
