Ask a child to describe a good father and listen for whether the answer came off a television. That question sits underneath the strongest writing here, by a man in the middle of a custody and support fight who wants other fathers to stay in the room instead of vanishing from it.
He is not soft about any of it. One post says plainly that you should pay what you owe. Another speaks to mothers going through the same separation. He writes about his own child's musical gift as the reason he keeps fighting, which makes the argument personal rather than abstract.
Around that sit self improvement pieces, a note on childhood weight backed with heart association figures, and news items he could not let pass, including a woman charged with using a taser on her son.
Come for the fatherhood posts. Those are written by somebody with something at stake, and the remainder is largely what he happened to read that week.
