Why Parents Groups Are Great For Dads?

As I mentioned I am a dad so I'm writting this post from my own experiences as father who attended baby groups for over 4 years now. 

People say they love seeing dads involved in child care but to be honest there is some social stigma to being caring, involved dad. Fatherhood is great and taking active part is amazing but doesn't always come across as very "manly". I had people laugh at me for carrying flowery changing bag for my daughter. It is difficult to go there and join in and there isn't many services that take dads needs into the account.

Parenting groups like my local Abbey Children Centre are a great place to take your first step. But lets talk about what happens at baby group.

About This Blog

I started this blog to share my thoughts about all matters related to finances and the impact raising children has on an ordinary family. Every day media tells us that raising kids is nearly impossible, The Guardian would have you believe that raising a child cost over £231,000, You will hear similar claims from The Telegraph  and many other sources. I aim to prove that having a child doesn't have to drain your finances and it is possible to raise happy children with good frugal values at a fraction of that absurd cost.

I hope to convince you that living frugally doesn't mean depriving yourself, show you how you can enjoy more out of life without it costing a fortune and stop being a slave to your own desire for newer and better things and instead learn to appreciate what you have.
