About

Sam of divorceddadsmagazine.com. A dad separated from his family because of divorce.

 

What about divorceddadsmagazine.com? Hi and thanks for dropping by.

A number of years ago I became a divorced dad. My children are older now and so am I.

I realize moms and children may be reading. Welcome. I believe a dad needs and wants to be a dad and that happens when all members of the family work together. Separation from our children is devastating. 

divorceddadsmagazine.com was created for all dads and families who experience a breakdown and separation from their children, no matter the arrangement and are looking for information to help form a decision. 

There are many new challenges; finances, children, legal questions. This is generally something we do not plan for. Of course the internet was there and some of my questions were answered with simple queries.

What I couldn’t anticipate was the lack of empathy I found around the topic of dads and divorce. 

Much of the content I was reading reflected a dad that cared for and loved his children,  while facing many challenges.  I was experiencing a trend where dads were seen as the problem, not someone who also needed support and guidance.

Dads have emotions and not all are stereotypical dead beats, a term I despise. So, I decided to do a bit of research and put some of those findings here.

The aim is not to counsel, as I am not certified, but to have a look at what the research shows.

Though not a certified counsellor, I am a researcher. And there is an abundance of credible and certified information and services in the world from which to build a sustainable knowledge of the issues.

The information presented here is meant to educate with the goal of making informed decisions. I am not a lawyer. I am not giving legal advice. 

It is within these parameters that this site will function. I would like to thank you for taking time to drop in. Please revisit us from time to time to learn more about divorceddadsmagazine.com. My goal is to inform dads and families on the challenges faced as we experience the dissolution of family and the redesign of something that works for us.
