Dads for All

Have you seen #Adolescence on #Netflix? Did it leave you with severe emotional whiplash and an overwhelming sense of dread about how you might manage to get your kids through their teenage years unscathed? While we don't have an antidote for the influence of the #manosphere or #manoverse or whatever we're calling it these days, we do believe that building in-person communities among dads can set a great example for our kids and help dads and families navigate and overcome challenges they're facing every day. Our own Peter Gaston went deep into this topic in our latest Substack post. Give it a read and definitely subscribe to stay informed as we grow our initiative: https://lnkd.in/eTwcGbx6

Have you ever considered rest as a form of #activism? Tricia Hersey of The Nap Ministry explains why rest is essential to those fighting the good fights. Recorded on #InternationalWomensDay at Meet the Moment presented by The Meteor at the Brooklyn Museum.

We had a great time chopping it up with?Dads for All?at Meet the Moment about the top three policy issues dads should get involved in—care, reproductive rights, and pay equity. There are certainly more, but these were top of my mind.? ? "Well, we need everybody, including dads. So I know dads are busy doing a lot of things. I don't know, throwing footballs around or I don't know. Moving heavy stuff. But if dads were going to get involved in a policy issue, they should get engaged on care-related issues. So, child care and elder care directly impact them and their families. Another issue, reproductive rights and access, again, that's a dad issue. Equal pay for equal work. When women are paid equally, that benefits men and dads and the household. So those three issues are important." ?

Our car meet-ups, driving ranges, bike shops, coffee spots, watering holes, burger joints, etc.?
