No More Bottom Dwelling… Dad’s House Bumped to Top of Alltop
After a few weeks of lurking at the bottom of Alltop, the blog collection that brings you All the Top Stories, All the Time, Dad’s House was bumped to the top of the dads list, featured in the first few rows. This is great for single dads and single parents!
A goal of my blog is to let the world know that single fathers are perfectly capable of caring for children and running a household solo. I have half-time custody and teens in the house, so my issues are different than, say, a solo mother with full-time custody of a toddler. But there’s tons of common ground between me and other single parents – dating, relationships, parenting concerns. In eight years of divorce, I have a lot of experience with modern dating. Believe me, it’s different. (This isn’t your father’s Olds Mobile that we’re hooking up in… um, what’s your name again?)
Single parents are parents, and our voice needs to be heard. And it’s being heard, with Lori Gottlieb’s recent single-parent-themed book and movie deals, Tina Fey’s new movie Baby Mama, writers and bloggers like Quest for T and Single Mom Seeking (high up on the Alltop moms list).
Then again, after my rant against Alltop’s number one blog, Dad Gone Mad, maybe they moved me up to keep a better eye on me…
