Father's Day with Bryan Dattilo June 18, 04:33 PM My last interview for my Father's Day feature is with none other than the hilarious Bryan Dattilo. I have always admired Bryan's relationship with his son, Gabe. As many are aware, Gabe has autism, which requires more attention and patience as a parent. But whenever I see Bryan out with Gabe, the two are always smiling and joking around, as if they are just two kids hanging out on a schoolyard. I thought Bryan's mom did a wonderful job describing their father-and-son relationship in my interview with her for Mothers' Day. Hope you enjoy my Father's Day interview with Bryan as much as I did. Below is a photo taken from this year's Annual Walk Now For Autism in Pasadena, an event Bryan and Gabe participated in, along with other "Days of our Lives" actors, families, and staff. Any Father's Day traditions that go on in your house? Every Father's Day, we have the Father's Day Basketball Challenge which is a one-on-one basketball game between us. It's father vs. son. He has beaten me for the past three years. What is the best fatherhood advice you have received and who gave it to you? The best fatherly advice I have ever received came from my brother. The advice is to spend as much time with your kids as possible, be their best friend, tuck them in every night, tell you love them everyday, and always have time to listen. What advice would you give to other fathers out there on raising an autistic son? Patience. Understanding. Never compare your son to the norm because there is no norm. What has been your most memorable Father's Day? My first one, of course, because I could finally refer to myself in third person as "Daddy." How has having Gabe changed your perspective on life? It's made me financially smarter, emotionally deeper, and physically heavier. http://blog.nbc.com/days_production/ |

Aw! Thanks for posting. |

She took her lover’s hand, and she said, “just because something is intangible doesn't mean that it's not real.” Lucas, no matter what happens, no matter what we’ve been through, no matter what I say, you will always be in my heart. -- Sami Brady, November 2007 | |
