Best of 2012: Dad Bloggers Group

Power in numbers! I am proud to have recently joined The Dad Bloggers Group and with over 100 Dads already joined I think it’s going to be BIG.

To kick things off, a big chunk of us shared our best post of 2012 to kinda get things rolling and as a way to get to know each other and our different writing styles. Some seriously crazy talent here. I’m just glad to be along for the ride. Go check out a few of these posts, I think it’ll really be worth your time, especially if you have recently entered the world of fatherhood.

• The Rock Father - Father. Daughter. Big Wheel. Ruling the Neighborhood on Three Wheels…

• Rather-Be-Shopping Blog - “Dad, Does Our “Elf on the Shelf” Have a Penis?”

A quick aside. A couple reasons I joined this group:

1. Tired of fathers being minimized by the media, corporations, and society in general. Example: See Oren’s post at Philips Norelco IV: A LOST HOPE. Really pisses me off. More to come on this.
2. Whenever I have been involved in any Mom blogger group as a sponsor or otherwise it’s a total cat fight. So this group is a HUGE breath of fresh air where everyone’s opinion is heard and it’s all about unity and moving this project forward.

   Sounds like an interesting idea, especially being a Dad myself.

   I won’t be a Dad for a few years here, but this looks like something that would be fun down the road.
