Email correspondence with the Daily Mail

Quills: actually one small thing does irk me... you've quoted me as saying "especially traditional mothers"... i edited it out of my facebook because as a feminist i was uncomfortable pinning the blame in such a loose way on a group of women. I'm not sure what im trying to say comes across - traditional as in, what i was used to as a child. stranger danger, healthy snacks, that kind of thing. just a small thing that irked me because it's a direct quote, you are a journalist and it is a legitimate quote so use your judgement.

Sally Lee: Hi Quills,

In this case, I’d have to stick to your original quote. I hope you understand.

Kind regards,

Sally

Quills: Indeed I do. I freelanced as a camera man for commercial news briefly. It wasn't for me. Good luck to you. :)

Note: The fact they are mostly mothers is coincidence because there are few dads. - Q.

Anonymous leaves note scribbled on a paper plate on a father's pram

A single father was left red-faced when he received an anonymous note at a playground which accused him of being a poor parent. The father-of-two, known as Quills, was at a park in Sydney with his kids.

So I was in the Daily Mail today.

So the post i made about feeling suicidal was published on abc.net.au They requested certain additions which I refused and they respected that. They trimmed out graphic stuff and stuck a bunch of links at the bottom, one of which was for beyondblue. I asked them to change it to the Black Dog Institute and they did. I'm very pleased to say that my opinion on a touchy subject is being respected. Mad props to the ABC

19/9/14 "Daddy? You know, this is a perfect day." 

[justquills]

so a quick vague update since i worried a lot of you: i'm doing pretty ok. it seems like im being confronted more and more by myself but that's good, it means i'm getting somewhere, and i am getting somewhere i think. i have times where i am overwhelmed by feelings of helplessness and loneliness, but I'm able to recognize them for what they are: feelings. Everything is pretty hard but I'm beginning to see the light. *shrug* thanks for being solid dudes everyone.
