Dads of 3 to 5 year old Children Needed for Online Survey!
As a dad to three beautiful girls, and with a history of anxiety challenges in the family, this is a topic of great importance to me. I always worry that decisions I make, or don't make, may be effecting my girls. We have spoken about anxiety with our kids and we always encourage our girls to share their feelings with us in the hope that we can quickly identify any challenges that may effect our kids, such as anxiety.
If you're a dad to kids aged between 3 and 5 then you can do your bit to help. This research is being conducted by researchers at the University of Melbourne. Fathers play an important role in their children's healthy development. In this study, we want to find out more about how dads contribute to their child's emotional and social wellbeing. The survey will take about 20 minutes to complete

The boys from Tacklenappy.com are trying to get from Melbourne to the Digital Parents Conference 2013 in Sydney on March 20-21.

Here’s the tough bit, we don’t have tickets, accommodation, transport or money but apart from that we are set.
I learnt something about myself and parenting on the weekend. I had to look after Kid X and Ernie for 2 x 5 hour stretches
