Love this so much. Just forwarded to my husband. He does a lot of work in the world of fatherhood. Also a podcast called thriving in fatherhood - might be of interest.

Thank you for having important conversations

Thank you everyone for writing such deeply honest and raw reflections on fatherhood. I'm about to be a father in a couple of weeks, with my own experiences and baggage from mine, and no doubt will have to shape my own version of it soon. All of your words hit deep and I'm glad I stumbled upon it.

I read Latham’s piece and restacked it. It was so raw and honest. I thought it was extraordinary. This is a great project.

Michael’s piece brought up so many things... I hop my son loves me enough to take care of me when I need it. I hope we can weather the ups and downs for his growing up.

I love being a dad and I know my dad did too.

Maybe the best thing about reading this is I get to think about my dad (he’s gone now) and my son. Looking forward to the next one...

Josh’s piece “I feared the water less than that cold embrace.” Screams as agonizing memories for me and my own parents.

What an excellent idea! The world needs more people like you and your group to explore a topic core to the experiences of most men.

Future topic proposal: I'd like this talented group to explore 'male competitiveness' in all its many forms.
