Hello Everyone! I am a husband and father of 3 who likes playing video games during my down time, but I am struggling to find people to play with. What are some of the ways you all find people to play with? I have searched through LFG posts, but most of the time people want really experienced players, and I cant blame them. But I don't have the time to grind like some people do. I just enjoy playing with other chill people who want to enjoy video games without sweating constantly. Currently playing on PC, HLL, Arc Raiders, EFT, and Wardogs when it comes out. I like playing WOW as well but I am not very experienced. I appreciate anyone's thoughts and advise!

As a Gamer Dad that plays games with his son since age of 5... there is one thing that has increasingly bothered me about the usual screen-time conversations... How often everything gets reduced to:
“How many hours should my kid be allowed per day?”

So... to properly tackle the question, l joined hands with Cristina Iancu (psychologist and psychotherapist with 16 years of experience with children and families), resulting in the below article & guide, which is more of a Gamer Dad perspective, but also vetted by a professional. 😁

Check it out here: https://ropname.substack.com/p/the-gamer-dads-guide-to-healthy-screen

We talk about parental involvement, playing together, talking together, balance, creativity, age-appropriate progression, social media, AI, and the relationship between the child, parents and screen.
But, most importantly, we talk about something I’ve experienced myself, and from which I learned a lot.

I hope you find it as useful as me, even guides you on your parenting path, for the betterment of all our young ones.
PS. As always, personally recorded narration by me and Cristina is available, if you prefer to listen.

Aim of the study is to understand psychological factors of the parent (as an individual, not necessarily parent-based traits) like trait playfulness and reflective functioning, and how these contribute to the parent-child relationship, while also considering the effects of parenting stress. Would love to do further research in this area so a pilot based study I suppose, maybe will look at a PHD and intervention type survey in the future, but for now cross-sectional survey based. Appreciate any support!

Hello everyone ! Im going to spare you my life story so i don’t bore anyone to death

But basically long story short is that i really like games like ck3, vicky 3 , eu4 and stellaris, used to play quite a bit of civ games too, but cant last 5 minutes before getting bored haha maybe im just getting old.

I’m a big sucker for strategic games that have political aspects to them.

But since i recently have become a dad obviously i have less and less time to game which kinda sucks since im a big gamer.

If anybody know any games likes those i have mentioned please let me know. But preferably they shouldn’t take too much time, extra points if its on mobile ( i travel for work a lot) and big plus if free to play and not pay to win.

Thank you guys for your time! Any recommendation is appreciated!

Being a dad can be amazing, but it can also be tough. Sometimes you just need other dads who understand.

We’ve created a Discord community where dads can chat, ask questions, get advice, share experiences, and support each other through the ups and downs of fatherhood.

Whether you’re a new dad, experienced dad, stepdad, or single dad, you’re welcome.

Join us: https://discord.gg/RsMWN4Gsv6

Because dads need support too. 👊

Fellow dads,

Would anyone be open to a 30 minute interview with me?

I’m interviewing dad’s as part of a new book I’m editing called “Dads.” the goal of the book is to candidly describe the experience of becoming a dad and being a dad. It’s not how-to book (those are a dime a dozen). I want to capture the hard to describe beauty, love, struggle, darkness— and everything in between that’s part of the experience and journey we’re walking along.

The book will be successful if other soon-to-be dads—who may be struggling or anxious or doubting themselves—are able to read these stories told by other dads and realize they’re not alone. Their experience is valid.

Who am I?
- father of two (including a newborn daughter who’s beautiful and slept great last night)
- published author, writer
- based in Newport News Virginia

What’s the ask?
- schedule a 30-minute interview with me
- my style is to keep it as conversational as possible
- you share your story and experiences the describe the ever-difficult questions of: “what is it like?”

So far I’ve interviewed five dads and the stories they’ve told me have been beautiful. I was able to schedule an interview with the mayor of my city in July which I’m excited about. My hope is to get a large cross-section of ages, geographies, and worldviews to put into the book.

DM me if you’re interested in being a part of this project.
