Fatherhood wears many faces. This week, our community of writers described the nuances of these men known as Dad. Your Sixes covered the spectrum, from wonderful fathers (“Real dads re-learn calculus with you.”) to relationships that are less then perfect (“Dad: We are closer through distance.”) and dads who are are determined to keep up with the times (“My dad turned seventy-two. Takes selfie.”). As Father’s Day approaches, there is no better time to honor and reflect on our dads. At their best (or not), fathers help us become who we are. –Gilmarie Brioso
