DADS WANT WORK FAMILY BALANCE
Suddenly dads are getting in the game -- or really, the public dialogue about work and family care. I went to a great policy briefing at the Center for American Progress on Men, Fathers, and Work Family Balance and blogged about it here. Days later, one of my sheroes, Nanette Fondas, a Harvard Business School Ph,D. and mother to five, wrote in HuffPo: "The fathers who spent relatively more time with their kids also experienced significantly more work-to-family enrichment... they felt that work improved their home lives; ... Also, they did not view caring for children as a source of stress, so families benefitted even more from the dads' availability and attitude."
