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.
