Abstract
This paper proposes several lenses through which one can look past the obvi
ous roles of fathers and see into the meaning that fatherhood has for our c
ulture. The paper suggests that we are reinventing social fatherhood and re
defining what it means to protect. It also describes how the very language
of who we are as parents is shifting.
