Men go through a lot.
A marriage gone quiet. A separation. The stuff you carry on your own and don't say out loud. Pick the door that fits. I've been through my share.

That's why hearing another bloke tell it straight can show you something about your own life. And when you know you're not alone, and that you're completely normal (sort of), you feel better. Thirty-five Australian men: fathers, sportsmen, soldiers, blokes from down the road. No scripts. No experts in lab coats.
All 250+ conversations →Alex. Father of five. Divorced, rebuilt, remarried. Not a lawyer. Not a helpline. Just what worked, written plain, for the man in the kitchen at 11pm who doesn't know what to do next.
What this is. A year after my marriage ended I was in a rented cottage with the bed chocked up on a brick, doing push-ups in car parks to get through ten minutes at a time. Nobody had told me what to do. So I wrote it down, and I sat 35 other men in front of a camera and let them say what they'd never said out loud. That's BetterDads: the guides, one short note a week, and the men. I run it from Bowral. Every email comes from me, and I read every reply.
Thursdays. One idea you can use that night. Written by Alex, read by a few hundred men who give a damn.
