Join KPCC’s early childhood reporter Priska Neely Thursday, June 7, as she talks with men who want to do away with the stereotypes of absent fathers or bumbling babysitters. Ahead of Father's Day, dads will share stories about navigating family life, reframing their personal (and society's) expectations of fatherhood and learning to take an active role in their children's early development.

Guests:

Alex Alpharaoh – dad, writer, performing artist and spoken word poet
Eli Lipmen – blog editor, Los Angeles City Dads Group
Darby Saxbe – assistant professor of psychology, University of Southern California
Donald Williams – executive director, D.A.D Project
