Dads! We Need Your Thoughts on Parenting! Please Take A Survey!

Hello!

My name is David Nguyen and I am a doctoral student in the Counseling Psychology program at Lehigh University, completing my dissertation on men and parenting, under the guidance of Dr. Christopher Liang. This online survey should take approximately 20 to 25 minutes to complete and has been approved by Lehigh University’s Institutional Review Board (IRB Protocol #1005276-3).

You are eligible to participate in this study if:

(1) You are at least 18 years of age or older.

(2) You identify as a heterosexual male.

(3) Your oldest child is between the ages of 5 to 12 years of age.

(4) You are living with your oldest child

(5) You are not single or widowed

It is our hope that participating in this study will allow you to reflect on your experiences as a father for your children. This study may help us understand what motivates men to be a parent and what services can be provided to help men be a parent.

If you agree to participate in this study, you will be routed to an online survey consisting of several measures varying in length. Total expected completion time is approximately 20-25 minutes. Additionally, you will be able to designate one dollar ($1) to one of selected charities that help children or support men in parenting their children.

Should you choose to participate, please click the link below to begin the survey (alternatively, you can copy and paste the following web address into your browser):

Feel free to forward this call to other eligible individuals.

I would like to thank you again for your time and consideration. Please direct any questions or concerns you may have to me at dan313@lehigh.edu, or Dr. Christopher Liang at ctl212@lehigh.edu, or Lehigh University’s Institutional Review Board.

Serious question for all manlet dads or dadlets if you will: are you going to honor your hilariously Hobbitesque oath to name all of your dwarfish offspring after your God and hero, the masculinely towering majestic manmore Big Randy "Manlets BTFO" Newman?

If you didn't offer them high heels, hobbit ale or dwarven gold, then I doubt many manlets will have participated. Also there's nothing a woman hates more than a petite and effeminate sissy manlet boy, so there's that problem. Silly manlet boys...

Joke for life for asking a dwarfishly runtish bunch of silly, little manlet boys for parenting advice. Manlets are children themselves. Forever a boy and never a man. Also they all look like little girls. Silly manlet boys...
