Buffoondad's Real Life Legacy

There are still people who believe a dad can't (maybe even shouldn't) care about kids.

Not Greg Bishop. "I just love babies," says father-of-four Bishop, president of Trauma Care of America Inc and leader of daddy boot camps. "Some guys love dogs. I love babies. I think 18-month-old babies are the most wonderful things on the planet."

Buffoondad disagrees:



So Buffoondad is better off without his kid ... and the kid is likely better off as well. But not every dad is BD (maybe not any dad outside of those in or insanely influenced by cliche writers and spouters). Ask Bishop and the 160,000 men who have taken his classes if a man should know about a child he fathered but was never told about. Ask them if the child be better off?

Those and other questions are on trial in York, England, where a judge is ruling in a case prompted by a 19-year-old who hid her pregnancy and the birth before putting her child up for adoption. She argues the relationship between her and the man was casual.

** Odd and sad, but true. BD is actually PC — and BS. **
