by P.D. LoveThe DaddyCast is an audio forum for parents. Each show I bring up a topic from an article or story regarding parenting, usually with a fatherhood spin to it, and also share some of my personal experiences as a father. My hope is that through sharing some of my experiences, listeners will do the same and we can all compare what we are doing, the right and the wrong, and improve our parenting skills to create better family environments.
