After a bit of time off, we’re back and we’re starting with a refresher on why being a stay-at-home father has been the biggest gift I’ve ever received and what I am doing to change the narrative around fatherhood for the better.
We also sit down to chat with the first guest on this show. Some people call her teacher, others call her director, and many little kids call her Mrs. Dolores. As for me, I’ve spent 43 years calling her mom.

We're back with a new season of "Dads Cry Too.” It's your space for real talk, expert advice, and that essential dose of “you're not alone” camaraderie. 
From the messy lows to the soaring highs, we're covering the challenges and celebrating the victories of fatherhood and being a parent in general in today's world.
Tune in for an all-new season beginning April 7 where you’ll hear more personal stories from me about life with two little ones as well as insight and inspiration from other parents and parenting experts who are on their own journey.
So if you’re tired of the same old parenting advice, tune in on April 7 and join me, J.D., a Montessori dad of two, for a fresh, insightful take on raising kids with independence and joy.

As we approach the end of the year, it's time to kick back, reflect, and bask in the warm glow of gratitude. 
This will be the last episode for the year and then I’m going to take a much-needed break. When I return, I’ll be coming back with a brand new take on sharing support for parents and I cannot wait to bring it to your ears.
Until then, today, we're diving into the heart of the matter - being thankful as a parent.

Ho, ho, ho, and welcome back to another festive episode of Dad’s Cry Too! This week we're diving into a hot topic that's been circulating in the holiday air lately – the controversial idea of canceling Santa Claus. 
Yes, you heard it right! But before you grab your pitchforks and candy canes, let's unwrap this debate and see why some folks are saying we should give the big guy in red a break.
