Please Spread The Word - DAD: As Easy As A, B, C

PhotobucketThere are quite a few of us out here in this amorphous space called the Internet who are doing battle in the war against father-absent households - the condition of growing up without a father.

And this Father's Day 2011 it came to life. It is the 2nd in my four-step effort to inspire dads to do more and do better for their families and themselves.

But like most things in this life, short of dying, I can't wage my offensive of this war against fatherless-absence alone. I need your help:


Thanks!
