Newsflash! Twitter Group for Dads Exists!

In response to a comment from my post on TwitterMoms.com, Michel did an excellent job on bringing to the light the oft forgotten efforts of the father.

Too often fathers in movies, cartoons, and other media formats are depicted as oafish, bumbling males that know very little about caring for kids, but somehow miraculously come out on top in the end. While I won’t make an excuse for every male, there are some fathers out there stay-at-home, single, and otherwise who do an amazing job fathering children, and go through just as many hardships in child rearing, just different experiences.

There is a Ning group for Twitter Dads, and a Twitter account to follow for fathers looking at connecting with other dads to share ideas, experiences, and techniques for child rearing. @TwitterDads is a worthwhile follow for any dad in the midst of childcare, and the Ning group is slowly gaining some steam.
