Marcus Aurelius dedicates the first book in Meditations to listing the influences in his life and what he learned from them. A lot of his praise and thanks go to his adoptive father, Antoninus Pius. But the same is true the other way around—parents learn from their children as well.
Recently, Bonisile Mgidi tweeted what could be called an inversion of that passage in Meditations. The man shared all the things he has learned from being a father. And with great honesty, too.
