The complex problem of childhood overweight and growing desperation to find effective interventions have led to hand wringing and occasional blaming of everything from parents, to schools, to individual food and beverage items.

When I published my first book on fatherhood, I dedicated it to my own loving father. Now, 17 years and numerous fatherhood publications later, I am in the unique position to extend a career-based tribute to my dad on what is an inauspicious Father’s Day for my family.
This week’s video is a dispatch directly from the Adorable Baby Department. It features twin baby girls who are totally delighted by their dad’s guitar playing. Don’t miss this one, folks.
