My kids might not be the next Ronaldo (or Leckie) but a love of sport is about so much more than that
Last week I woke my two eldest children (aged six and nine) at midnight to watch a soccer match between Japan and Germany in the World Cup. It was a bad idea, and I’m a bad dad. The tiredness-induced meltdowns later that evening were monumental.
This morning we watched Australia v Denmark on delay. I lied and told them it was live. Lying to your kids is fine. Go Socceroos.
