And I say, because you got to open that channel.

So it's wide open when it comes time to talk about things that do matter.

If you don't ever talk to your kid until it's critical, it's too late, man.

You gotta start talking to them about things that don't matter so when it comes time that they've got a crisis at school or in a relationship or something, they're so used to talking to you that it doesn't feel weird.

And so I tell them, talk to them about things that don't matter so you don't make them feel awkward or on the hot seat and they can come to you when they really need to talk about things

that do matter.

And you've got to start talking to them about how to think for themselves and critical thinking that, as I said, is not happening at the universities.

And these universities now, let me give you an example.

You've heard all this talk about trigger warnings.

Yes.

That's going on in schools and stuff.

Trigger warnings don't work.

Trigger warnings are exactly the wrong thing to do if somebody's going to be stressed out.

And that's not my opinion.

There are evidence-based therapies that says if there's something in your life that's going to stress you, you need to learn to cope with it.

You need to learn to deal with it.

And in therapy, we have like systematic desensitization, immersion therapies, things where you learn if you're afraid of snakes or you're afraid of airplanes or whatever, you have to learn to cope with that because there are going to be snakes in the world.

There are going to be airplanes in the world.

There are going to be elevators in the world.

There are going to be whatever it is that stresses you out.
