Just a quick entry to note that I attended the first local session of Hogan Hilling’s Proud Dads group. Though any sort of fathering group for new (or old) dads is not the kind of thing that’s going to make the papers, it’s worthy of note. Rather than telling fathers how to be or act, it was a chance for a group of guys to share with each other tips and frustrations. It’s almost a given that fathers are lone-wolf types when it comes to parenting and aren’t likely to sit around the kitchen and cleaning stories. But the deeper I get into this whole “dad” thing, the more I’m realizing that fathers have lots of cleaning stories to tell. We just lack other dads around to tell ‘em to.
