Dad Blogs

Blogging isn’t all about moms, or just parenting in general. There are some really good blogs out there written by and for dads. Here’s a sampling of some of the ones I’ve found.

*Divorced Dads Matter-Divorced Dads Matter is a site started by a typical father who was, and is still, constantly amazed at the prevailing social view of father’s as secondary parents and the court systems approval of this attitude. Divorced Dads Matter seeks to offer support, information, and a voice for good fathers that simply want to love and be a meaningful part of their children’s lives.

*DaddyBlogger-Advocating Shared Parenting and Step-Parents

*Daddy Zine-
One-time boy wonder turned father figure, the publisher of Daddyzine came up from the mean streets of Normal, Illinois.
Days he raises his daughter, nights he traffics in 18th & 19th century first editions and manuscript material. Given this conflation of roles, he writes rather in the spirit of Hannah More and shall attempt herein to express his ideas in terms adapted to the meanest understanding.

*Freaked-Out Fathers-Welcome to a place where you can kick back and chuckle. That’s pretty much my intention for this blog. I’m a Dad, my best buds are Dads, I often coach parents (some of whom are … Dads!) - so I know that occasionally you Dads need:

* info about fathering that helps you do it more intentionally and effectively,
* conversation with other blokes about the trials, frustrations and challenges of being a Family Guy,
* and a damn good laugh!

*Cubicle Dad-
I’m busy just trying to balance my family, work, my plans to stage a coup in a Third World Country, dealing with my mental health…and trying to get out of this damned cubicle some.

This is just a sampling! Visit these guys blogrolls for even more great blogs on fathers!
