  • family reading

    30 October, 2025

    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”.

  • love from childhood

    29 October, 2025

    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.

  • adventure

    24 October, 2025

    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.

  • Poland: families first

    23 October, 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.

  • The 'D' Word

    17 October, 2025

    Words have power, especially when it comes to parenting. Used with thoughtful intention, words can build up and create. Used carelessly or worse, recklessly, they can tear down and destroy. One word that seems to have gone out of fashion is the ‘D’ word, Discipline.

  • single father

    14 October, 2025

    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.

  • Erika and Charlie Kirk

    22 September, 2025

    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

    17 September, 2025

    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.

  • downtime

    28 August, 2025

    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.

  • forgiveness

    15 August, 2025

    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.

  • Abdallahs in Sydney with new baby

    14 August, 2025

    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.

    13 August, 2025

    As we work more with couples, and get more life experience under our own belt, we’re gaining better insight into why forgiveness is so elusive. Here are some of the reasons why people commonly resist forgiveness.

  • single dad

    12 August, 2025

    In 2013, Michael Ray became the sole parent of his two-year-old daughter Charlie. Michael has since published his first book, "Who Knew", which speaks to his experiences as a single dad, exposing some of the stigmas men come up against in the parenting world.

  • Dad Father Child

    5 August, 2025

    Whatever your story, your children don’t need you to be flawless. They need their father to be present. They need you to be aware of the story behind you, so you can write a better one in front of them.
