If there is just ONE THING you have on hand to give to new dads, I encourage you to have the "Help Me Grow Guide: The First Year". It’s an easy way to bring dads into the wonderful life of their child and encourage their participation right from the start.

Encouraging your kids about good behaviour is one of the most effective ways to train, or disciple, your children.

The toys my 14-month-old chooses to play with confirms my suspicion that girls and boys are born with in-built predispositions towards different activities and skills.

Contrary to common beliefs, up to one in three victims of sexual assault and at least one in three victims of family violence and abuse are male.

Every married couple needs to grow in love, and listening to love songs is one way to strengthen your marriage. Here are my top ten greatest love songs!

Twelve weeks ago, my wife, my 12-month-old daughter, and I packed up our apartment in the United States for Squish’s biggest adventure yet — three months of travel, missions and adventure from the Great Lakes to Sydney, Australia and the jungles of Indonesia.

Princess Kate has just finished 9 months of chemotherapy for cancer. She celebrated the end of this time of suffering by releasing a very heartfelt 3-minute video about the stormy trial and the joy of family. It is utterly brilliant.

Earlier this year, another true-blue Aussie hero, Martin Stevenson from PowerPlus NSW, reached out to Dads4Kids. Like Chris Woods, Martin is a courageous man, doing what he can with what he has to raise much-needed funds and awareness for the men and fathers of Australia.

Though I have gained many insights into working with single fathers over the past 16 years, here are some that I consider to be the most foundational. I believe these five principles — three “Do’s” and two “Don’ts” — will prove successful in your parenting.

“One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” are the immortal words of Neil Armstrong when he stepped onto the moon. Perhaps that is what Chris Woods was thinking when she decided to walk across Australia to help men, and particularly fathers.

The long journey from Darwin to Adelaide has just been completed on foot by Chris Woods. Her astonishing story and commitment to putting others first is a remarkable achievement, but one done with a big smile on her face.

Fatherlessness is a growing problem all over the Western world. We urgently need to address the twin problems of fatherlessness and family breakdown. Until we tackle these problems, our children and our societies will continue to suffer.

The West’s fertility crisis is ultimately an identity crisis. If Western civilisation is fundamentally oppressive, why would we want to perpetuate our existence? If we Westerners are destroying the planet, why should we continue populating it?

Father’s Day is for all the dads you know, so let’s consider broadening the boundaries of Father’s Day to include a few more men who could use an encouraging word. Here are a few men to keep in mind on Father’s Day and questions to help inspire a meaningful message.

Fond memories of childhood and beyond, encapsulated in a little red wagon.

Dads4Kids wants to make a big deal out of dads on Father’s Day this coming Sunday, 1st September 2024. Watch our brand-new latest Father’s Day Community Service TV ad below. It is essentially ordinary people from 18 to 78 years of age, talking about their Dads.
