“Single fathers, whether they’re divorced, never-married, widowers, or gay, face unique challenges. Whether you have full custody, no custody, or something in between, you’ll find plenty of solid, practical information right here. And there’s even more in my book, The Single Father: A Dad’s Guide to Parenting Without a Partner, which will show you how to nurture a healthy relationship with your children and experience the joys of fatherhood regardless of the legal, emotional, and social challenges you face.”
“You only get one chance to be successful at it and you cannot fully understand it until you experience it. That’s a lot of pressure for expecting dads as well as experienced dads. Being a dad is not an easy role to play, there is no time for rehearsal and you learn as you go. Despite the demands, fatherhood is one of life’s great adventures. This site is designed to provide dads with information and resources that pertain to parenting and providing for your family such as: child development, behavior issues, cooking tips, cleaning tips and support groups. It is our hope that this site will be a place that dads can come to not only be encouraged, but informed on legal issues that can help you protect your family.”
