What does Bambi have to do with divorce? The Disney cartoon? Nothing. The insightful masterpiece the cartoon was based on? More than you would expect. foundationfather.com/p/bambi-and-th…

Homeschool? Want to help your kids memorize beautiful words and build a library in their head for life? I built an app for that. It's like Duolingo but for scripture and poetry, and one account works for the whole family. incordium.com

I've read Perelandra 3 times now. Each time is surprising. Each time I come away with it being my favorite of the trilogy. Though That Hideous Strength is undoubtedly the best novel.

Still know the full jingle from that local plumber that you heard when you were 12 years old? Wouldn't you rather memorize something worthwhile? incordium.com

Every month, I set aside the amount we used to spend on diapers for them. That gets put into an investment account once it gets big enough. They'll get access when they turn 18.

The two most consequential things a man can do: 1. Start a family 2. Start a business "Travel" and "being a foodie" are so low on the list that they prance around the 7th circle of Hell.

Same if your feeling depressed. Get 7,000+ steps in the sun every day for a week and see what that does for your mood. Give yourself a fighting chance.

Many older men I know all left their wives for younger models, and all at a predictable time. Within a few years of their last child leaving the house, the husband was also gone. Many convinced themselves that it wouldn't affect their children as much, because they were grown up
