Life with two small kids can feel like trying to juggle while running a marathon. What my wife and I are learning is that the best thing we can do at this stage in our lives is to put down a few balls and just run with the ones that matter most.

Stepfathers can play an important role in the lives of their stepchildren. We hope this post encourages all dads to be the very best they can be for their kids.

This week, a shocking Pew Research graphic has been making the rounds on social media. It’s a chart showing how dramatically young women’s interest in marriage has fallen away over the past three decades.

Next Saturday, 29th November 2025, Dads4Kids fantastic founders Warwick and Alison Marsh celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary!

Stepfathers play a vital role in modern blended families, offering stability, guidance, and support. With patience, empathy, and thoughtful strategies, they can build trust, strengthen relationships, and foster lasting family harmony.

In opening our homes to those of the next generation, we not only provide a safe place for them to meet; we also model the beauty of family and elements that form a good one, including faith, hard work, sacrifice, and love.

We are excited to tell you that International Men’s Day is coming up on Wednesday, 19 November. The theme this year is "Celebrating Men and Boys". We are running an extraordinary global livestream on International Men’s Day with guests from all over the world.

Reading to children gets increasingly more difficult in an age of movies, the internet, and hectic schedules. But fighting against these constraints and picking up a book with your children is well worth the effort, for even a few minutes here and there gives both parent and child “an irreplaceable gift”.

Parents are our first educators because we learn through them how relationships work, and that forms the foundation for our adult relationships. No matter how wonderful our families are, they’re all limited and wounded somehow – it’s part of the human condition. The reality is, we’re being formed from childhood for both good and for trouble. 

The good news is you don’t need to break down on the Nullarbor Plain to enjoy an adventure or admire the heavens sitting by a campfire. If you’re near the South Coast of New South Wales, plan to join us at the upcoming Dads4Kids Fun Camp at Coolendel, 7-8 November 2025.

What Poland, Hungary and Georgia share in common is an honest accounting of the demographic reality in front of them, and a conviction that national prosperity depends on stable marriages and families.

Billy Graham once said, “A good father is one of the most unsung, unpraised, unnoticed, and yet one of the most valuable assets of our society.” That’s especially true of single fathers.

Gender activists have unleashed a Marxist-inspired campaign to redefine, reconfigure, and eventually destroy the family. Feminists launched a crusade to vilify men and fathers. In response, Charlie Kirk disparaged the anti-family effort in strong language.

Cohabitating couples can be very generous and loving, but it can never be a total and unconditional gift of self while it is understood as a temporary relationship.

When I was single, I had more downtime than I cared for. Now, as a father of two very young children, I treasure any time I have alone. It is only in such moments that I am able to step back, gain perspective, and think strategically about my life, my family, and our big-picture goals.

Today, I’m excited to announce Dads4Kids' latest Community Service Announcement (CSA) campaign, "Be The Best You Can Be", is going to air on TV networks all across Australia.

Danny Abdallah could have easily smashed the man who killed his children, as at one stage he was the Australian kickboxing champion. He recently met the man in the jail where he is serving his sentence to tell him personally of his forgiveness.

One of the speakers at this year’s Dads4Kids Men’s Leadership Summit was Danny Abdallah — the Sydney father who lost three children to a drunk driver and went on to forgive the killer. This weekend, Danny will appear in an episode of Spotlight on 7NEWS that recounts the tragic incident — and more importantly, will highlight Danny’s journey of forgiveness.
