Premium Membership: Getting the Most Out of It

Premium is not about more content. It is about content and connection that fit your actual problems. A good premium experience gives you depth on topics you care about, a route to experienced fathers, and savings on programs you were going to attend anyway.

Be skeptical of any plan, anywhere, that sells premium as a shortcut to a perfect family. There is no such thing. There is only better support for the hard days.

Because both paid plans include premium resources, the choice is mostly about commitment. The Yearly Membership at $100 is the better value if you are in it for the long haul. Twelve months at $12 would be $144. The Monthly plan is better if you want flexibility.

If you are a planner who likes to set something up once and forget the billing, yearly tends to suit you. If your work hours or finances swing from month to month, monthly may be easier to manage.

In the first month, pick one challenge at home and work through the premium resources on that topic. In the second month, request an Ask a Dad connection and talk through what you tried. In the third month, look at upcoming fatherhood programs and see whether your member discount makes one worth attending.

At the end of ninety days, ask yourself an honest question: is home life a little calmer, or am I a little more confident? If yes, keep going. If not, adjust your focus or your plan.
