Back to EpisodesThe Greatest Parent Movies of All Time (And What They Taught Me About Being a Dad)
Description
Some movies make us laugh. Some make us cry. And some hit completely differently once we become parents.
In this solo episode of Mostly Me, Occasionally Wise, I'm counting down my favorite parent movies of all time—not because they're award winners, but because they capture the love, sacrifice, humor, and unforgettable moments that come with raising a family.
From Look Who's Talking to Mrs. Doubtfire, we'll revisit eight films that have shaped the way I think about fatherhood, family, and making memories. Along the way, I'll share a few personal stories, some laughs, and a reminder that the ordinary moments we often overlook are usually the ones our kids remember most.
