You’re not alone anymore.

Separation and divorce is a common reality for many Australian families. BetterDads is an online community that shares practical tips and resources to make the journey a little easier. Think of it as the roadmap that will get you, and your kids, to the other side.

What you find here works.

The information that you find among these pages has been curated by Alex Laguna, a man and father who took the learnings of his own divorce and put it to good use by creating the Better Dads community. Then a massive community of dads joined in to share their approaches.
