Out of my great respect and love for the fathers in my life, I wanted to share some other folks’ thoughts on Dadding. Let me know what you think!

I love this video from Asha Dornfest, a parenting mentor of mine, who published Minimalist Parenting and runs ParentHacks.com. Dads don’t need to act like moms to be great parents!

But why listen to just the moms about dads? Blogger, podcaster Fred Goodall AKA Mocha Dad explains why the media’s images of dads are so destructive in this brief video:

One more! Derreck Kayongo’s tips for fatherhood are excellent, but I could really listen to him speak about anything at all. Give yourself two minutes to be inspired to be a better parent to help your children embrace failure and become aware of who they are.

Other dads/dudes to check out while you’re over there: Mr. Dad Armin Brott, Mike Spohr of Buzzfeed Parents, and same sex parent Chris Rice for starters.

Note: These videos are shared because I like ’em. I think KidsInTheHouse requires a free sign-up to see the videos. Once you get in there, you’ll fall down a rabbit-hole of amazing advice in bite-size pieces.
