An Oasis in the Research Desert? The self-explanatory group Dads and Daughters has come through with the funding for their poll, which will look at a variety of different subjects, including (possibly) this one: "How often do you talk with other fathers about being a father?"

That's one I find interesting. Men -- generally -- don't seem to do much communicating about parenting, so I'd be curious to see if the study reflects that. The results are due to be presented at a DC briefing in June ... I'll do my best to keep you posted.
