Have you ever thought about the challenges sole parents face?

From financial hardship to the responsibility of day-to-day decisions and discipline, feeling judged, not good enough, or even a failure.

Parenting is challenging enough on so many levels, even loving couples can be unprepared for the major changes when a newborn enters the home.

It can feel overwhelming, daunting, foreign, and very lonely. That’s just what I hear women talking about – now imagine you’re a father in his 50’s, raising a daughter, alone from 18months old.

It’s not as uncommon as you may think, in fact single-father households are expected to be the fastest growing family demographic in projections of population growth to 2046.

As a sole parent Michael has spent the last 13 years navigating some of the greatest social barricades and stereotypes you could imagine, but he’s now using his experience to advocate not only for men who find themselves in his position, but for women’s equality.
