Manned Up Conversations Dads In The Picture with Mesh Kekana
In episode 53, we connect with Mesh Kekana to talk about the journey of his organization Dads In The Picture. We also explore how boys are being raised differently from girls in the home and the importance of teaching boys skills that enable them to take care of their own home and families. Mesh also questions some of the statements made about fathers involvement in their child life and how the systemic, social and cultural obstacles fathers face make it difficult for those relationships to flourish.
Mesh Kekana is the founder of Dads in the Picture (DITP), an organization of like-minded fathers, who saw a need for fathers to play an active role in the lives of children. A few like-minded fathers shared ideas around the current role of men and what was needed to improve it. The vision of Dads in the Picture is to Encourage every dad to take responsibility in the upbringing of children in a safe environment. A platform for all fathers, Grandfathers, Uncles, Big-Brothers who want to make a positive impact in our children's lives.
