Leading by Example as a Paralympian |

Paralympic archer Matt Stutzman is competing in his fourth games as a dad. Here's how he sets an example for his three sons.
Matt Stutzman has defied expectations since childhood, when first picked up a bow and arrow with his feet. While confident as an archer, he was less confident about becoming a dad.
When Matt first became a dad to his son, Carter, he questioned everything. "I was like, 'How am I going to hold the baby? How am I going to change the baby's diaper?'" he admits. "I was paranoid about all these things and it wasn't until the baby was older that I realized that the baby doesn't care, it just wants to be loved. It's all the baby wants. And all the fear is just in the parents, so there's no point in having it."
And now Matt has two decades of parenting under his belt - his three sons are 18, 17 and 12 and he says the most important thing is to lead by example. "I think that sticks with your kids more," he says. "They look up to you even when you're not talking, so I hope they take that whole 'I can do anything' attitude."
Cheer on Matt as he enters his fourth Paralympics which start on August 28.
