Re: New Mum 2 Years, 7 Months ago
Welcome, Cate! So glad you could join us. I have to admit the last study of Dad involvement I saw gave the Aussies low marks compared to other countries. In your opinion, is it true? Are Aussie dads less likely to help out around the house and with the baby than Euro or American dads? Or are these studies missing the mark?

You know, I don't really know! Most Aussie Dads work a lot and when not working like to rest, so I guess they aren't as involved with the kids. I wouldn't know from personal experience, as bub is still cooking! If you have any links to studies, I'd love to read them.

How's the weather in Austin? Out here, I'm in wine country (one of the wine growing regions anyway) and we've recently hit spring and its quite hot! Then we had a cold snap after a dust storm (that was rare! orange dust EVERYWHERE) and now its hot again. I do admit, I prefer the hot weather to cold anyday!

Love the videos, and kudos to you, Brad, Owen and Troy for being such fantastic Dads!
