Blending Families & Work-Life Balance for Dads: The Home Hour Episode 57

May 06, 2015

We all remember the Brady Bunch, but what does the modern-day blended family look like? Today Meagan and Busy Dad‘s Jim Lin discuss what it’s like to mix five kids from two different sets of parents – ages preschooler to teenager – in the same blended household and still keep everyone happy. We also discuss juggling work and life, long commutes and other tradeoffs, the realities of multitasking, and how technology can help us keep all those balls in the air.
Some of the things Jim and Meagan talk about in the episode:

* Jim’s appearance on The Today Show, talking about dads, work, and modern parenting. 
* How Men Fake an 80-Hour Workweek 
* Work-life balance and the myth of the 80-hour week featuring research from Laura Vanderkam
