- Dying to Stay Home?
A 2002 study done in the US reports that stay-at-home dads are more prone to dying early from heart attacks. Payment is required to access the archived full-text article on The Washington Post. However, I managed to find a news report on CNN that is free. Even with this report, I would still gladly be a stay-at-home dad. Something to plan and look forward to, maybe?

- Ways to Get Your Kids Reading
A good listing of ways to get your children to read. It doesn’t have to always be reading in relation to studies as it might instead kill his/her interest in reading. You should definitely allow your children to read books for fun and be a good example by reading yourself. Think we need to do more reading than watching television so as to motivate and encourage Matthew to read more. Thankfully, he loves books and visiting the library.
