I’m thinking about working on this design… honest
Here’ s the complete text of the email I refered to here:
Dear Dads,
I’m working with ABC Television with hopes to feature fabulous at-home dad families for several of our upcoming shows. I think that the office mom / at-home dad family dynamic is so inspiring - and through my research I’ve realized that it’s a quickly growing trend across the country!! I came across your information linked trough RebelDad and after speaking with Brian Reid about our goals for the show I got the “ok” to scroll through and contact you!!! I know you could be a great resource for me so I hope we can partner together to feature a great family - and a great Super Dad on our shows!
I would LOVE to chat with your or other at-home dads you know to learn about your household philosophy - what systems you have in place and how this arrangement works for your wife, your children, and of course, you! I think it’s a fantastic idea that works so well for lots of families out there…yet still isn’t what most of middle America would consider the “normal” family dynamic. Together we could work to change that!!
I’m hoping to speak to families that have children at least 4 years old and older. There is generous financial compensation involved with our program!
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns - I hope to hear back from you soon!
Best Regards,
HeatherHeather Teta

Why do I feel comfortable putting this person’s contact info here? Because she’s behind a program called Fix My Husband which this email may or may not be about.
And because the asshats behind crap like this deserve what they get.

You know, we dads are all just simpletons who are lucky if we can change a diaper without splattering the walls (hilarity ensues).
If only I really were smart enough to take care of my kids all by myself. Someday I hope to be able to use the microwave all by myself too!
Thanks for keeping us respectable.
C’mon - you don’t want to be on “wife swap?” or “I’m Paris Hilton’s Sugar Daddy” or “Super Stay-at-Home-Daddy Nanny” or whatever the h*ll those reality shows are called now.
What’s wrong with you? Aren’t you American? Isn’t it your patriotic duty to live your every mundane moment in front of an audience?
With generous financial compensation, no less. That’s the least they could do, right? Since your family dynamic isn’t “normal” and all.
Grrrrrr…..
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I live in Middle America and I also live in that dynamic. Yargh.
classic david - nicely played
All the blogging moms in the universe got the Wife Swapping email. “oooh loved your blog…….” blah blah blah. Ya,right,whatever!!!!!!
There’s nothing real about reality t.v. I’d rather watch reruns on TV Land,thank you.
