Oh and I get to share my story of discovering my daughter making out with “hot boys.”Ī: They actually read every issue before I print it, threaten to write their own version of the zine “Bad Dad,” and when they come to readings they generally heckle me non-stop. For number 18, I wanted to explore how our relationships with other adults impact our parenting I wanted to remind us all that there are numerous kinds of families besides the hetero-normative monogamous partnered couple. Q: Tell us about the new issue what can people expect?Ī: The new issue was a lot of fun…many of the issues often deal with specific difficult situations in relation to parenting children. Rad Dad works hard to present the diversity of parenting from young parents, to parents of color, to anarchist parents. Parenting is also not a white middle class, hetero experience. And simple being a father doesn’t mean you are rad. It’s also a zine that strives to challenge the mainstream representation of fathers and parenting in general parenting does not equal mothering. Q: If you were asked to define Rad Dad in less than 100 words whatĪ: It’s a zine about how we all can parent in conscientious ways, how whether we are parents or not we can foster communities that are multigenerational and supportive of children.
