Greg Bishop is founder of “Boot Camp for New Dads,” an Irvine-based nonprofit that has, for nearly 20 years, brought the concept of fatherhood to thousands of first-time fathers. Has he made headway? Of course. Has he made a breakthrough? Bishop would be the first to tell you, “No.” “Because the whole set of issues are overwhelmed by the interests and needs of mothers, and I would say justifiably so, we just haven’t heard the voice of fathers. We’re creating a small beachhead in this regard. Beyond us, there is not much of an organization that represents this kind of voice. There is a lack of balance in the case of thinking that this new job brings.” Bishop has written a book, “Hit the Ground Crawling,” and has another coming out in February or March, “Crash Course For Dads-To-Be.” The new book, he says, “is what they need to know in a very easily absorbed format.” New dads need to know a lot. They also need the rope to be fathers. (You can find this and other reports at ocdadblog on our website, ocfamily.com, written by Executive Editor Craig Reem.) |
