Fatherhood Freestyle

Our team of Dads brings a fresh voice to the discussion about single parenting, co-parenting, raising kids and just being men.  Listen closely, because these aren’t voices that get heard everyday.  Get ready to shift perspective as they let loose and speak their peace.

Fatherhood Freestyle: You Are the Prize

By Mike McRae

This post was inspired by the recent “Co-Parenting Matters” show on “Dads Raising Daughters” as well as my recent move from one coast to the other. So, my daughter has been walking to school with one particular “friend” from our neighborhood since school began. We’ll call her, “Sarah” for the sake of anonymity. Well, around 7:15AM a few Mondays ago, my daughter sent Sarah the customary... read more »

Fatherhood Freestyle:  Not Your Average Baby Daddy, Part I

Fatherhood Freestyle: Not Your Average Baby Daddy, Part I

By Mike McRae

My mother raised me and my older sister by herself. We had little means, lived in public housing, and like all parents, she always wanted and expected more for us. Throughout my childhood, I observed my mother as she ripped and ran, worked up to three jobs simultaneously, and developed no healthy romantic relationships (that I can remember, anyway). So as a kid, I made a commitment to myself that... read more »

Fatherhood Freestyle:  When Do You Introduce “The Next”?

Fatherhood Freestyle: When Do You Introduce “The Next”?

By TK Pierce

I’ve been single since 2000, and in that time my kids, current ages 26 and 19, have been introduced to a total one of my girlfriends! Have I only had one girlfriend? Heck no! But, only one made the cut to actually meet my kids. Let me clarify that. Early on I decided that there would be no revolving door of dates/women/boos or spoogies that my children would come to know while I searched for the... read more »

Fatherhood Freestyle:  Parenting Time–Quality vs. Quantity

Fatherhood Freestyle: Parenting Time–Quality vs. Quantity

By Fanon Che Wilkins

As some of you know I parent from abroad. My children live in Champaign, Illinois and I live in Kyoto, Japan. I visit them about four times a year (weeks at a time) and they spend summers with me in Kyoto. It would be an understatement to say that our time is limited, but it would be equally untrue to suggest that we do not make the best out of the time that we have. By default I have become the... read more »

Fatherhood Freestyle:  Tales from the Fortress

Fatherhood Freestyle: Tales from the Fortress

By TK Pierce

Not long after my divorce and the early adventures of my initial separation, I came to live in the first place of my own. I was in the lower 9th Ward of New Orleans, a place previously known as one of the poorest and most segregated sections of the city. After Katrina, it became an icon, a symbol of all that went wrong with New Orleans and the federal response to that catastrophe. But that’s another... read more »

Fatherhood Freestyle:  Mamas, Are You Getting in the Way?

Fatherhood Freestyle: Mamas, Are You Getting in the Way?

By Whitney Traylor

About two weeks ago, it was close to midnight and I was getting some food on my way home from the office. Because it was late, I was the only customer and while I waited a young man with a bandana over his face, busted in and robbed the spot. The young robber pressed the gun to my head and demanded that I “get down!” I continue to be shaped by that evening. After that incident, a good friend... read more »
