PS: Going off of the Parkinson's diagnosis, Will, you wrote in the book that you wished you guys had that talk earlier. Were there any other topics that you wish you two had talked about before the book came out or just at an earlier point in your life?
WG: I don't think so, because I never felt that I missed anything. I wasn't lost in the world because I didn't have these talks. My dad was always there for us. He worked very hard, but he was home to coach our Little League teams. I didn't feel like I was missing some fatherly wisdom, because we had a good family. I think sometimes you can live the sermon instead of preaching it, and that's what my dad did. Frankly, now that we've had this bird and the bees talk, we realized it's probably better we didn't. I'm not advocating for not talking to your kids about sex, or drinking, or any of that stuff. If you can do it and you're comfortable, then you should.
BG: I think I was just a coward. I think kids in grammar school know more about sex than I was ever actually officially taught correctly. Willie's had a couple of kids, so he figured it out.
