Matt Damon<\/a> has got people right in the feels with his parenting advice to Jason Kelce<\/a>, with the two stars speaking Girl Dad to Girl Dad during the most recent episode of Jason\u2019s New Heights<\/a> podcast, which he cohosts with his brother, Travis Kelce<\/a>.\"For reference, 55-year-old Matt has four daughters: 25-year-old Alexia, who is his wife, Luciana Barroso\u2019s, daughter from a previous relationship, 19-year-old Isabella, 17-year-old Gia, and 15-year-old Stella.\"<\/p>\n

And Matt has always fully embraced fatherhood<\/a>, previously telling Esquire<\/a>: \u201c[Paparazzi] can try to stake me out, but they’re always going to get the same story: middle-aged married guy with four kids.\u201d\"<\/p>\n

He also opened up about the \u201ctwo-week rule\u201d that he and Luciana implemented in a bid to balance his Hollywood career and his family, with Matt telling YourTango<\/a> in 2014: \u201cI\u2019m not away for more than two weeks. I think you need to be with the person you love as much as possible. My wife is my soul mate. I don’t like being apart from her.”\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jason is also a dad of four girls \u2014 albeit he is much earlier on in his parenting journey than Matt is. The NFL star shares six-year-old Wyatt, four-year-old Elliotte, two-year-old Bennett, and nine-month-old Finnley with his wife, Kylie Kelce<\/a>.\"<\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s perhaps unsurprising that the two bonded during Wednesday\u2019s podcast episode, where Matt shared a heartwarming anecdote about his recent experience with his teen daughter Gia.\"<\/p>\n

\u201cAn old friend of mine said, when my 19 year old was probably 18 months, said: \u2018Don\u2019t blink,\u2019\u201d Matt began. \u201cThat shit is real. My daughter broke her collarbone, and this morning, she was getting ready for school, she\u2019s 17. She asked me to brush her hair, so I brushed her hair and man\u2026 It was a moment.\u201d\"\u201cI hadn\u2019t brushed hair, I don\u2019t know, eight, nine years? You know what I mean?\u201d he went on, before saying to Jason: \u201cYou\u2019re at that stage now where you get them ready, they\u2019re lined up!\u201d\"<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, you gotta do all of it,\u201d Jason confirmed. Matt then continued: \u201cI don\u2019t remember when I brushed her hair for the last time, it just kinda happened. And then life kinda kept going, and the changes are so incremental that you don\u2019t realize until I ran the hairbrush through her hair and it\u2019s the same, and it buckled me, man. So, don\u2019t blink.\u201d\"Needless to say, Matt\u2019s heartfelt comments have left social media users feeling emotional. Reacting to the clip on X, one person wrote<\/a>: \u201cThis is typically a lighthearted, funny show, but this is beautiful parenting advice from Matt Damon.\u201d\"<\/p>\n

You\u2019re crying.\u201d\"One more added<\/a>: \u201cI was [bawling] driving to work on this one. Matt Damon is a wise man. And a great dad.\u201d\"<\/p>\n
