Howdy fellow pops!

I wanted to create a place for you to brag about your kids (sons and daughters), ask questions, give advice, and share pics and stories. This group is open to single and married papas alike.

I'm calling this Group "Dangerous Dads At Work" to describe the dangerous tasks us fathers have ahead of us - teaching our kids to ride bikes, shoot a gun, bait a hook, swing a hammer, and so on.

So feel free to share, and let's just have fun.

My name is J.R.. I'm a single dad of a one-year old boy (Logan). Lots of pics to come.

    Cris here, single Dad to a 13yr old daughter, 6yr old son, and 4yr old son. I have custody of them all.

    Also, I want to say this is an awesome idea. Sometimes things come up that only other Dads get...lol.

    Here's a picture of me teaching my daughter and oldest son the names of all the engine parts on a 67 Mustang lol:

    And, my youngest son, mixing it up while helping to bake a cake:

    Eric here, dad of two great little boys, Jake 6yrs old, and Ford 4 yrs old. Being Daddy in my opinion is the greatest gift I have ever recieved, dont even remember life before my boys.

    Just took Jake hunting Sunday for his first time and he gets his first deer!! I held the 30-06 for him and he pulled the trigger, although if you ask him he did all the work!! LOL

    Hey Guys,

    I joined MFP about 10 days ago.

    I taught middle school for 7 years, then this year decided to stay at home with our kids after we had our third.

    Now that I'm home all the time, I was getting into some potentially bad food grazing habits. Just joined to keep an eye on what I'm eating.

    This is the first group I've joined. I haven't added friends or anything like that yet (I'm not really sure how it all works). So I guess I'll just post this and see what happens.

    Hello Fellow Fathers!

    My name is Ken and I live in Ohio, I am the father to 2 awesome little kids Alex age 2 and Danica age 4. They are the reason I am trying to get healthy and fit. My dad died when he was 62 and I never really got to know him so I want to be here a long time for them. Good luck to all and their reasons for being here!

    Hello all you dads, My name is Daniel and I joined a few days ago. I have a son Maximus who is a tad over 13 months. He was born here in Italy due to my wife being in the military. So with us being overseas and the laws here for spouses working is really bad so i get to be a stay at home dad. Its very new for me not working and all but would not trade the time i get watching my son grow. Not sure how to post pics of him but will do when i find out. Please feel free to add me

    Hey Guys - My name is Geoff, I'm from the Boston area and I'm a full time graphic designer, husband, and a father to a 13 month old baby girl named Annabelle. Fitting in time to exercise and keep track of my diet can be hard So I've been trying out these myfitnesspal groups. I've been going to a nutritionist, so far 42lbs down and working toward more. Nice to meet you all.

    Best,
    Geoff
