What Dad Really Wants

Father’s Day is this weekend and we talked about what dad really wants for Father’s Day. According to the Z95 dads and our listeners, most dads do want time with their kids and family, but typically just a nice meal with some fun conversation. Other than that it depends of what stage of fatherhood you’re in. New dad Marc said he just wanted some time alone to do something he wants to do. Les Sinclair has teenagers at home, so he would like a nice meal with the family, but he says his kids don’t have to take their whole day for him. One of our listeners whose kids are all out of the house said that he just wants them to come and spend some time with him. He doesn’t care about gifts.

However, they all agreed that if dad says “I want _______” you should listen to him and get it for him.

If you need a few suggestions, here is a good article from a dad who blogged about the top 10 things he would like for Father’s Day! Good luck!

Oh yeah, here are some discounts and freebies for dad’s too…
