He reaches parents, especially Dads, and helps them to help themselves be better parents.

Mr. Reardon's experience in education has encompassed grades K through 12. He has written a book to encourage Dads to be more involved with their children's lives. The New York Times has said, "All-Star Dads is long on common sense" and quotes Mr. Reardon as saying, "The real heroes of America are our classroom teachers."

Mr. Reardon has delighted audiences speaking at the National Parent's Day Coalition in Washington, DC this year as well as at schools throughout New England, Minnesota, Arizona, Georgia, and Florida. His experience has shown him the importance of good communication as parents raise their children. He has observed that when dads become involved in the schools their children do better. Mr. Reardon's work with parents has shown the importance of keeping communication going with others in parenting support groups, if this does not happen, parents will revert to previous behavior within three months.
