There might be a better way of doing things..
'I was asking one of the kids to come over to me and on about the third time of me asking and being ignored, my father-in-law said 'how many times would you like to ask before coming?'. Of course the answer was 'once'. That thought made me change my approach and has saved me countless hours and frustration. We don't know what we don't know. My hope is that BeTheDad can help you discover methods and mindsets to help you get better results.'

Meet the Author - Ferg Turnbull
Hi, I'm Ferg, a father of 5 kids aged 5 - 15. I have a full-time day job, and in addition to family life; I draw, coach sports, love shooting hoops, lego, playing boardgames with the family and having a laugh.
BeTheDad origin story:
My wife and I were leading a new parents group and as I was sharing tips from parenting our family, some of the parents commented 'you should get this information to more parents!'. So I started writing a blog aimed at Dad's, adding pictures and bullet points to make it simple, interesting, and easy to apply.
My mate Ray who was in the Aussie Army shared the blog with some of the guys in his unit and after about six months one of them wrote me saying 'BeTheDad' had saved his marriage!
When I excitedly told my family about this great feedback, my mother-in-law Betsy encouraged me to make the blog into a book and offered to edit it for me. Months later as she finished the edit, Betsy, a mother of six, turned to me from her computer screen in her living room with a very intense look in her eyes and said 'you need to get this out to men, they need to hear this'. Sadly it was one of the last things she said to me as she passed away unexpectedly in the days that followed. I took what Betsy said to heart and have made it my mission is to do just that, to get it out to help as many Dads as possible
