  • From being unable to put a babygrow on his son on the day he was born, to hearing stories of his friend’s struggles to be the kind of dads they want to be, Dave has developed the course out of a desire to see more engaged, more confident and healthier dads.
    Dave will tell the story of how his experiences of learning to be a father led him to want to share his challenges and lessons with the wider world.
    Dave is the founder of The Dad Course, an innovative programme designed to help first time dads prepare for fatherhood.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    It's very encouraging to see more and more topics related to fatherhood. Keep up the good work! Dads are finally being given a voice.

      I would say it's a bit more than 'an ingredient'. I would say there ain't much of a dish without a dad! 🙏

    This is a great video. I am a father of 4 and had a father who came and went throughout my childhood. I know I will not do that to my kids, and will be their foundation. This video is uplifting. Thanks!

    I don't see the importance of fatherhood. I always wondered what's the importance of fathers in a child's life. I can see why mothers are important. Women are socially and biologically programmed to be parents much more strongly than men are. Mothers are the ones that produce milk to feed to their babies. Also, mothers are the ones that are usually in charge of their babies, and they assume that role early on. Also, women have "maternal instinct", while men don't have anything like that. And also, children usually spend a lot more time with their mothers than they do with their fathers, and during that time, the mothers are usually taking care of the children. Mothers usually spend more time with the kids than fathers.

    Also, most animals in this world are only taken care by their mothers and they don't have their fathers around at all. So why are human fathers important? It seems that a child can grow up without a father, and still turn out ok.
