Episode #359 – A Look Back on 2024  Hi I'm David Hirsch, founder of the 21st Century Dads Foundation and Special Fathers Network as well as host of the Special Fathers Network Dad To Dad Podcast.   Happy New Year and welcome to the first episode of 2025.   Tom Couch, the editor and producer of the SFN Dad To Dad Podcast, and I, thought we would do something special and provide a Look Back on 2024.   In total we produced 72 episodes, 52 were weekly episodes airing on Fridays and for 20 weeks from May through September we produced a series of short episodes with SFN Mentor Fathers who are also involved with the SFN Mastermind Group program.  We called them SFN Mastermind Group Monday Podcasts.    While we'd love to include a snippet from all 70+ episodes, to keep it more concise we decided to provide some highlights.   We hope you enjoy listening to this Look Back on 2024 Episode as much as we did producing it.   18 of the 2024 guests are authors.   Nine of the interviews included international guests, from the following seven countries: Australia, Canada, Cayman Islands, Cuba, Iceland, Israel and the UK.  Four of the guests are women.  Three interviews were with dads who lost a child including one who was an Israeli hostage killed by Hamas terrorists.  Two interviews included military veterans: a former U.S. Navy Seal and a U.S. Air Force Vietnam-era combat pilot.  And one of the guests is a Native American.   The episodes also spanned a very broad range of disabilities including; Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Rare Disease, Dwarfism as well as those who are blind, deaf and missing a limb(s).    Here is a brief month by month recap with a clip from a select number of episodes.   In January, we aired four episodes including a dad from the UK and one from the Cayman Islands as well as with Jonathan Eig, father to three, including a son whose parents passed away at an early age.  Jon is also the best-selling author of biographies on: Muhammad Ali, Lou Gehrig, and MLK.   In February, we aired four episodes including one with Dave Jereb of Sydney, Australia, a Physical Therapist, co-founder of Move About Therapies and author of the book: Challenging The Story. We also did a two-episode story with filmmaker Bob Manganelli, whose 23 year old deaf son, very tragically committed suicide, while at Gallaudet University back in 2014.  In March, we produced five episodes including a two-episode interview with Keith Harris of Albuquerque, NM who is a retired business owner and father of four, including son Tim who has Down Syndrome.   He and Tim owned and operated the restaurant Tim's Place for five years.  Tim also went on to author The Book of Hugs, a children's book.  In April, we aired four episodes including one with Jonathan Bennett of Ontario Canada, who is an executive leadership coach, author and father of two, including one with Autism who is also non-binary.  In May, we did six episodes including one with Dr. Greg Pursley of Jackson, MO who is a chiropractor, owner of PC Medical Centers, an author and father of two, including a son who has Dwarfism.   We also interviewed John Borling of Rockford, IL who is a retired Major General in the U.S. Air Force.  John was a combat pilot in Vietnam who flew 97 missions before being shot down and held hostage for six years, eight months at the Infamous Hanoi Hilton.  And we interviewed Jon Ghahate a Pueblo Indian from Placitas, NM who is a Vietnam-er veteran and father of three, including a daughter who is sight impaired.  In June, we produced eight episodes including four SFN Mastermind Group Monday interviews with testimonials about their mastermind group experiences.  One was with John Shouse of Franklin, TN an industrial control engineer and father of three including twin boys, one of which, Evan, is Autistic.   John and his wife, Janet, have been leaders in the disability community throughout TN and John has been involved with the Tuesday night Mastermind group for nearly three years.   We also interviewed Paul Briggs of Falling Waters, WV, who is the father of 38.  No this was not a typographical error or some misstatement.  Paul and his wife, Jeanne, have six biological kids and 32 adopted children including: 13 from Ghana, 10 from Ukraine, six from Russia, two from Bulgaria and one from Mexico.   In July, we did nine episodes including five Mastermind Group Monday interviews.  We also interviewed Kelley Coleman of Los Angeles, CA, a mother of two, a disability advocate, and author of Everything No One Tells You About Parenting a Disabled Child: Your Guide to the Essential Systems, Services, and Supports.   We also interviewed Sam Farmer of North Easton, MA who is the father of a son with Autism and later in life was also diagnosed with Asperger's.  Sam is also the author of A Long Walk Down A Winding Road and has become one of the more well recognized self-advocates in the Autism community.  We also Al Malavolti of Rockford, IL in a two-part interview.  Al is a retired aerospace executive and he and his wife, Rosemary, have 22 children including four biologic kids and 17 adopted kids, and one they parented.   In August, we aired

created the Twin Autism Foundation and have been outspoken advocates for those diagnosed with ASD.    We also interviewed Alvin Green of Chicago who is a retired Chef.  Alvin and his wife, Angela Ferguson, have two boys including Aiden who is Autistic.  To provide Aiden with some career skills and to support himself, Alvin founded Al's Cookie Mixx, a premium online cookie business that employs individuals who have intellectual disabilities.  In September, we produced nine episodes including five Mastermind Group Monday episodes and one with Agust Kristmanns of Reykjavik, Iceland who is the father of three including son, Ingi, who has 2Q37 Deletion syndrome, a rare chromosome condition that affects his development.  We also interviewed Jonathan Polin who is an Israeli-American.  Jonathan and his wife, Rachel Goldberg-Polin, became some of the most outspoken advocates speaking out about the urgency behind releasing the Israelis being held hostage by Hamas.  They met with the Pope at the Vatican and President Biden at the White House.  They spoke at the United Nations in Geneva and at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.  I interviewed Jonathan on day 328 of their son Hersh's captivity and very sadly, just days later we learned about Hamas murdering six of the hostages including Hersh.   In October, we aired five episodes including one with Dr. Ruslan Vasyutin who is a single Ukrainian father to 12 year old daughter Alicia, who has Cerebral Palsy and unable to walk or talk.  They are currently living in Solihull, England after fleeing Kiev in February 2022 after the Russia invasion of Ukraine.    We also interviewed Andrew Bustamante of Colorado Springs, CO who is the father of two young children.  Andrew and his wife, Jihi, are both x-CIA undercover

entrepreneur.  He and his wife Kristin have two children with disability and are the co-authors of How To Build A Thriving Marriage As You Care For Children With Disabilities.  And in December we did four episodes including one with former U.S. Navy Seal Phillip Koontz who is a business owner, leadership coach and speaker, father of five including an Autistic son and author of the book: The Truth Behind My Trident, which provides a fascinating look behind the curtain of the life as a U.S. Navy Seal.  We also interviewed Emma Livingstone of London, England who is the mother of three typical kids, who herself has Cerebral Palsy and is founder and CEO of UP - The Adult Movement For Adults With Cerebral Palsy.   All in all 2024 was an extraordinary year for the 21st Century Dads Foundation

Co-hosts Doug Sweeney and Kristen Padilla talk to Paul House and Angela Ferguson about a few female figures in the Confessing Church and their ministry. 

We interview Angela Ferguson, a fiercely dedicated seed saver, corn grower and food sovereignty practitioner and advocate who continues to maintain and revitalize Indigenous trade networks. She is the supervisor of the Onondaga Nation Farm, a working farm that provides traditional foods for families throughout the Onondaga Nation. It serves as a place where cultural learning around food and farming are practiced. Throughout the interview, Angela shells bean seeds, and with seeds clicking and popping in background, she tells us about food as currency, alternative trade networks, pre-monetary currency, practices of reciprocity that are being revitalized and food as the common thread. Angela notes how a lot of the work at the farm is about integrating people with the foods and sacred knowledge that comes from elders and the connection that pulls it all together. I think this is part of the definition of sovereignty: Can we feed ourselves? Can we still perform our ceremonies? Can we still speak the language? Are we still willing to learn and pass on that oral tradition? We have begun using food as currency. We have eliminated using the US dollar as a form of value placed on our goods and resuscitated the thought process getting back to old trade routes using food as value. "A lot of places in my food travels had a lot of people calling their seed places a seed bank, and I thought, well, banks are full of promissory notes. That's what a dollar bill is— an IOU. I don't feel that our seeds are an IOU, they are something so sacred that they need to be honored. I did not like the word ‘bank'. When you give things, you give them unconditionally, so you don't expect anything back. The seeds do that for us, the food does that for us." "There were people who starved to death on the Trail of Tears but they didn't eat the food that was in their pocket because they knew they had to keep those seeds going for the next generations to come. That is very intense thinking when it comes to food and I think people have gotten so far away from that mindset, that if they can reconnect again -- it is what will eliminate the value of a dollar. If someone would hand me a jar of seeds or $20, for me the $20 has no value but the seeds can feed a generation. They can support a lot more than those $20 could." (Intro and outro music by Polvora and Barcelona Afrobeat)

Angela is the current supervisor of the Onondaga Nation Farm. The farm practices all aspects of Food Sovereignty for their community. She is also one of the original organizing members of Braiding the Sacred, an all indigenous group of Traditional Corn Growers across Turtle Island. Her many passions include Haudenosaunee Traditional Agriculture, Seed Caring, Bee Keeping, Foraging, Traditional Cooking Methods, Knowledge Sharing, Haudenosaunee Nutrition Education, Youth Mentorship, & Traditional Hide Tanning.

  If you want healthy smart children, and who doesn't, it is vital, imperative, crucial, fundamental, even axiomatic that you ensure that they get the recommended amount and quality of sleep that they need. Do you know what promotes the best sleep in your children?  Well, stay tuned to find out in this important installment of Portable Practical Pediatrics. Photo by Angela Ferguson, Pixabay Images Musical Introduction A True Life Story Recently, I was asked to speak to a group of parents of “at risk children” who had come to a family education evening to talk about how to maximize their children’s performance in school. We talked about the research that has been discussed on this blog many times. Specifically, I wanted to stress the factors that parents have control of that have been shown to improve a child’s academic achievement; -Enforcing a regular healthy bedtime and keeping TV’s and electronics out of a child’s bedroom. Limiting entertainment screen time being part of that. -Getting an adequate amount of physical activity and unstructured play during the day. -Having a diet rich with unprocessed foods -Ensuring that every child is getting an adequate amount of sleep something that has been found by investigators to often be lacking in at risk children. Well, the night this event occurred was actually the second time I had spoken at this church and talked about this topic.  I thought my first talk with this group of parents had gone pretty well but I had no idea of how well.  At the onset of my this visit with these parents, an amazing thing happened.  Before we got into the talk, an older gentleman raised his hand and told me he had a testimonial to share. That’s what he called it, a “testimonial”. He told the audience and me that he and his wife were raising their grandson who was currently in 4th grade and not doing very well academically. He said that he and his wife had decided, after hearing my first talk, to try getting their grandson a structured regular bedtime, free of screens and junk food to see what would happen. Specifically, they wanted to get him to bed early enough for him to get up the next morning without a fight. That was their goal. To do this, they completely restructured his bedtime: they removed the TV from his room and cut off screen time after 7pm. They insisted that he was to eat all of his food at dinner and was to get nothing no more after that. Bedtime was set at 8pm and enforced. Lights out and time to sleep.   After doing all of this, they said the transition was nothing short of miraculous. He almost immediately stopped fighting about getting ready for school in the morning and actually woke up in the morning on his own. He also stopped fighting about going to sleep.  And the best thing is that his grades showed an immediate improvement. Whereas he had been struggling to keep up in school, now he was getting good grades! They said even his personality was more pleasant. They attributed all of this great stuff to him having a regular bedtime and adequate sleep. They had no idea that not having a structured bedtime, letting him play video games late into the evening, eating junk food at night, and falling asleep in front of screens was so detrimental to him. Needless to say, this family's story had a big impact on everyone in the audience, including me! Why is Sleep So Important? But don't just take my word for it, listen to what a panel of 13 sleep pediatric specialists at the American Academy of Sleep Specialists who carried out an extensive literature review on the issue of childhood sleep have to say about the issue. "Healthy sleep requires adequate duration, appropriate timing, good quality, regularity, and the absence of disturbances and disorders. Sleep duration is a frequently investigated sleep measure in relation to health outcomes. Many studies have shown that adequate sleep duration is associated with better attentio...
