From reason to radicalism: Gender fluidity
Mark Latham, The Daily Telegraph May 31, 2016 12:00am Editors Comment: Mark Latham is a passionate father who does not suffer fools gladly. He is a very adroit commentator and his warning at the end of the article that we are fighting for the future of civilisation is more than true. WHEN John Maynard Keynes declared “Madmen in authority, who ...
Dad Jokes
They sell books sometimes at the gym my wife and I go to. The other morning, always on the lookout for books for me, our readers and our grandchildren, my wife excitedly called me across to the gym book table. Look at this, she said, holding up a book of illustrated dad jokes by Katrina Germein called, “My Dad Thinks ...
Things You Don’t Say to Your Wife
Some time ago I came across a Tim Hawkins’ video on YouTube. Tim Hawkins is a musical comedian with a difference. He made up some very interesting new words to the Green Day song, “Time of Your Life” and renamed it ‘Things You Don’t Say to Your Wife.’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iK2OakMoW_c&feature=related&safe=active The second verse goes like this: I planned a hunting trip ...

As the late US poet laureate, Stanley Kunitz puts ...
New Dads4Kids Adverts
Putting together the Dads4Kids Community Service Announcements is always an exciting time for me. It is an honour to film fathers in their natural habitat with their children. It is both an inspiring and humbling experience for me. The previous TV adverts would be hard to beat! In an eight-day period we videoed 24 fathers and their families in Victoria, ...
Anthony Albanese search for the Father he didn’t know He Had
Editors Note: We congratulate Anthony Albanese on his courage to share this powerful and personal story with the people of Australia. We reprint the full article for our readers interest.

Fire and Rain
Each week I try to be encouraging, but real. The trouble is the ‘real’ part has a way of whacking you in the side of the face when you least expect it. Many men have been whacked so many times that they just don’t want to get up off the floor and sometimes they can’t. Teaching men how to endure ...
Championship Fathering
Several years ago my wife and went on a family research trip to the USA. It was a rich experience on many levels. Firstly, from video footage shot on the trip, we created our first documentary on marriage and fatherhood called the Marriage Revolution. We even built a website to promote it. Secondly, the place we conducted a lot of ...
