Your Family’s Future

November 5, 2007 by GreatDad Writers Leave a Comment

Are you thinking about having another baby?
Would you like your children to be born close together? Or would you like them to be born further apart?

Everyone has a different answer. Some parents wait. They have a second
baby after their first child is five or six.

Some parents have their children closer together. Other parents decide to
have only one or two children.

Talk to your spouse. Do you both have time and energy for another baby?
How much can you give? How will you feed him? How will you give him
clothes and medical care? What kind of house or apartment will you need?
What do you want for your children?

It makes sense to plan your family. Planning ahead lets you give the best
care to your children. Talk to your doctor, or talk to a nurse at a public
health clinic. Ask how you can space your pregnancies.

There are many safe ways to delay getting pregnant until you are ready.
Most are simple and cost little. Some work better than others. You can
choose the one that is best for you.

Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad. Connect with us at greatdad.com and watch the video version of these podcasts at YouTube.com/greatdadnews

150. The Power of Humor in Parenting with Gavin Bellour
byPaul Banas

How does humor shape a happy family? In this episode of Great Dad Talks, explore the power of laughter in parenting with director, creative, and dad of four, Gavin Bellour. Gavin shares stories from both his advertising career—featuring celebrities like Jason Biggs, Martha Stewart, and Norm Macdonald—and his life as a father trying to find joy, even amid chaos.

From embracing dad jokes to making humor an essential family value, we discuss the challenges and hilarity of parenthood. We cover playful family rituals, the importance of laughing at yourself, and practical tips on bringing more humor—and less stress—into your home.
