Work-life Wednesday: The new dad

(Fox 25/MyFoxBoston.com) - Things are a lot different for dads of this generation as opposed to our dads. Our dads dropped mom off at the hospital. We went in the delivery room. Our dads asked us how school was going. We volunteer in the classroom.

But a new study out of Boston College shows things haven't gone quite as planned for this new generation of fathers.

I recently spoke with Brad Harrington, Executive Director of the Boston College Center for Work and Family about the changing role of fatherhood.
