Fathers Quarterly No. 5

Fathers Quarterly No. 5 is out now. In the fifth issue we sketch portraits of fathers who break all the rules. Pawel Althamer takes his kids to the woods to play with fire, Anna Maria Szymkowiak – a biological father – talks about her gender reassignment, and Piotr Czuryłło teaches his little daughter how to use weapons. We give examples of fathers being irresponsible, proving that you don’t have to be afraid of your own weaknesses.
