Questions & answers
Frequently asked questions.
What fathers ask before they begin: who True Father is for, how the Five-Day Pass works, what each plan includes, and how your information is handled.
Is this only for dads who live apart from their kids?
No. True Father serves any father who wants to show up prepared and consistent: dads at home, dads who travel for work, dads on deployment, and dads connecting across households. Distance is one reason connection slips. Busyness is another. The system works either way.
What is the True Father 5?
The daily system: Laugh, Check-In, Story, Lesson, Blessing. Five parts in an order you can run from memory, whether you have two minutes on a call or twenty before bed. Every prep True Father builds follows it. Beside it, on the monthly plans, each day also offers one practical skill to teach. You can use one moment on its own; nothing requires the whole sequence.
How does the Five-Day Pass work?
The Five-Day Pass is five consecutive calendar days of True Father for $15, one time. It starts the moment you buy, weekends count like any other day, and it ends on its own. There is no subscription and nothing is charged again.
What is included in each plan?
Connection ($25/month) is the complete month: your monthly focus, weekly lessons, Today's Prep, the True Father 5 every day, a practical skill to teach each day (with Find a skill for a spare moment), Quick Call, Anchor Moments, Weekly Close, the Monthly Record, the printable library, and your recent Journey (the last six weeks). Legacy ($40/month) makes the months add up: your full Journey stays open, separate lanes for each child with the Weekly Dad Schedule, text downloads to keep, and continuity across months.
Does True Father make or host calls?
No. True Father doesn't place, host, schedule, or record calls, and it never connects to your child. It prepares you for the FaceTimes, phone calls, and bedtimes you already have.
Is this religious?
Only as much as you choose. Every True Father 5 ends with The Blessing, and you decide what that is: a Christian prayer, a general blessing, or a non-religious affirmation. Nothing religious appears unless you selected it.
What ages is this for?
Ages 3 through 21. You pick an age range (3 to 5, 6 to 8, 9 to 12, 13 to 16, or 17 to 21) and the content is written for it: simpler stories and shorter moments for little ones, grounded scenarios for teenagers, and an adult-to-adult register for a 17- to 21-year-old.
Is this therapy?
No. True Father is not therapy, counseling, or mental-health treatment, and it doesn't diagnose or advise on anything clinical. It's a practical system of stories, questions, and prep. If you or your child are working through something serious, a licensed professional belongs in the picture too.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Monthly plans are month to month, and a yearly plan runs for the year you paid for. Cancel from your billing page whenever you want, with no phone calls and no retention hoops. You keep access through the end of your paid period.
How do I access my account after I pay?
We email you a one-tap link that opens your account. From then on you log in with your email and the password you set the first time you were inside.
Do I have to share custody, divorce, or personal family details?
No. True Father does not need those details and never asks for them. It runs on light inputs: an age range, interests, a tone, and what you need today.
Do children create accounts?
No. True Father is built for dads. Children do not create accounts, and we do not build child profiles. A nickname and an age range attached to the content it created is the extent of it.
Why does True Father save generated content?
So you can return to your dashboard, reuse what worked, see your Journey according to your plan, download where your plan includes it, and keep a practical record of the connection material you've created. It's your material, in your account, for you.
How is my information used?
Only to create your content and run the service. We ask for just enough to make it personal and store those answers with the content they created, not as a standing file on your child. We don't sell your information or use it for advertising, and you can delete your content and account whenever you choose.
