Are you a new dad? Congratulations! And here’s something important to remember: In many ways, you’re also suddenly a new husband — or parenting partner.
Saying “I love you” and “I’m so proud of you” can be a tremendous blessing and a real benefit to our kids. That doesn’t mean it’s always easy or natural for us, but we can grow in that direction.
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.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandads and father figures! I hope you’re able to spend precious time with friends and family today and celebrate the positive influence dads have. No man is an island — we need a supportive community to flourish and grow.
