and it is only one and-a-half years. Not quite the glacial speed you are sugesting Daddelion.Hmm

Pedant. Never let exaggeration get in the way of the truth.

Hyperbole rules.

Pan · 05/02/2013 13:24

Hmmm..I'll have a bit of a think about that, and get back to you...Smile

Daddelion · 05/02/2013 18:27

See you in 2014.

GiveMeSomeSpace · 05/02/2013 22:03

Don't stop now gents - you've almost doubled the length of the thread in a couple of days

Pan · 05/02/2013 22:05

Whoa!! Time out.

Daddelion · 06/02/2013 07:19

Yes but we're the same person, name changing to make it look like a conversation aren't we Daddelion?

Ehhrrr I mean Pan?

Pan · 06/02/2013 07:59

Don't drag me into this.

Pan · 07/02/2013 18:43

Said Daddelion.

The fact that Mumsnet is a much better developed website than Dadsnet reflects on how Dad has a much smaller voice than Mum, where the family is concerned. The childcare element moves in Mum's world like a well oiled machine. Ironically in todays society Dad will spend as much time with his children as Mum does. It's about time Dad began to fight his corner..........by this I mean he has to speak out about his family life, good and bad. Let's hear it from you Dad, try not to feel overwhelmed.

All dads are zombies

Clearly

zombie thread

TiggyD · 21/04/2013 20:17

It's about time I posted on here.

Women are paranoid overthinkers. If they have a query, they'll post it online for a bunch of strangers to mull over having first discussed it with their friends, mother, sisters, in-laws, exes, old work colleagues and inant school friends from a reunion 20 years ago, plus the shop worker, checkout girl, postman and milkman and partner.

Dads will just shrug and get on with it, having figured it all out in twenty seconds. That's why no Dad's forum has much traffic, no market for it.

Although if youwant to read a Dad's point of view, try the fathers4justice or families need fathers groups, now there's some opinions to rival teen the strongest ones on MN :D

TiggyD · 09/05/2013 22:14

I've been having a think about this...

Ilikethebreeze · 09/05/2013 22:18

So have I TiggyD

Ilikethebreeze · 09/05/2013 22:19

But maybe not the same thoughts as you now I have read the post better!

lostdad · 14/05/2013 12:43

I post on the FNF forum a lot - lots of dads, though most of them are there because they're looking for help in defending their kids' rights to have a father.

Saying that there are a lot of female members there too.

TiggyD · 15/05/2013 22:15

...and I think that...

Hold on! FNF? What's that?

lostdad · 16/05/2013 14:34

FNF is `Families Need Fathers'. Despite the name it's actually a parenting organisation and not a fathers rights one.

TiggyD · 27/07/2013 23:05

Might have been:
the French Nail Foundation?
Fish Need Fishermen?
Falmouth Naughty Football?

AlbertGiordino · 12/11/2013 13:35

I've been having a think about your points TiggyD...

lostdad · 12/11/2013 16:39

I use the FNF forum a lot to give help to parents who are seeking to stay in their childrens' lives post separation - so it is mainly dads there.

TiggyD · 12/11/2013 17:54

I think there's something about the site "Mumsnet" that leads people to believe it's for women. Not sure what it could be. Hmm.

lostdad · 12/11/2013 20:32

'By parents for parents'.

Either the tag line is wrong...it dads are not parents. Which is it?

TiggyD · 01/12/2013 23:04

Merry Christmas 2013 Dadsnet!
