Welcome to Dad’s House

The more I search, the more I find.
As in more single-parenting websites. This is a particularly good one from David Mott, a West Coast dad who runs the Dad’s House blog. David is a divorced dad with half-time custody, and addresses everything from solo parenting to the single-parent dating scene and all the issues in between.
He tells me that his goal is to tell the world “that single fathers are perfectly capable of caring for children and running a household solo.” He concedes that his half-custody situation puts him in a different role than solo moms or single parents with full-time custody. But there is plenty of common ground in terms of dating, relationships and parenting concerns. He hits on all those and posts regularly.
“I’m sharing stories and opinions on online dating,” he said. “Also how to deal with things like the general lack of acceptance of a single dad by married couples, and things to do with your alone time. Interestingly enough, my blog has already opened some eyes to married readers who are now re-evaluating the father’s role in a household that has both parents. I’m all for men being more present with their children.”
I’m trying to be selective in the sites I add to my blogroll, and didn’t hesitate adding Dad’s House. The stories are always honest, often funny and consistently useful. And if you noticed, David has already begun providing his input on my posts here, which is valuable to the discussions we engage in.
As I like to say, check it out.

Jorge,
If you remember I am a big proponent of this type of blog. because here at lohud they seem to care more about Moms than us dad’s that actually particpate more than our fair share.
The so little time and lohud mom’s it dad bashes and that aint right. Maybe you can go to the Lohud blog dept and say maybe its time. There are a ton of us good dads out there..
what i would prefer is that the moms site didnt bash dads and when one (me) steps up and says excuse me i dont do that.. have them get all jealous or call me a liar,in so many words..
Just a thought.
On the dating stuff you do. since i am married the wife doesnt let me date much .
Well, most of us date to find a wife, so you’re ahead of us.
And I agree on this type of blog. I think it’s a good one.
