1. Our Purpose
Dads Like Me is operated by Warrick Zipp T/A Dads Like Me.
The website shares personal experiences, educational articles, newsletters and resources intended to support fathers navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, disability, medical trauma, mental health challenges and parenting.
Our purpose is to provide information, encouragement and a sense of connection.
We do not provide professional healthcare or clinical treatment.
​
2. Educational Information Only
All articles, newsletters, personal stories and future downloadable resources are provided for general informational, educational and supportive purposes.
They do not constitute:
• Medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
• Psychological or psychiatric treatment.
• Individualised counselling or therapy.
• Professional advice concerning medication.
• Emergency medical or mental health assistance.
​
3. No Professional Healthcare Relationship
Reading the website, subscribing to a newsletter, purchasing a future digital product or communicating with Dads Like Me does not establish a doctor-patient, therapist-patient or other professional healthcare relationship.
​
4. Personal Experiences
Content may include personal experiences of illness, surgery, chronic pain, disability, emotional distress and family challenges.
These experiences are individual accounts.
A strategy or treatment discussed by one person may not be suitable, effective or safe for another.
​
5. Medical Decisions
Do not begin, discontinue or change prescribed medication or treatment solely because of information published on this website.
Consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional before making decisions affecting your health.
​
6. Mental Health
Dads Like Me may discuss depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, emotional exhaustion, identity and family relationships.
These discussions are intended to encourage understanding and support.
They do not replace professional mental health assessment or treatment.
Visitors experiencing significant or persistent distress should seek appropriate professional assistance.
​
7. Emergencies
Dads Like Me is not an emergency response service.
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, experiencing a medical emergency or at imminent risk of self-harm, contact local emergency services immediately or attend the nearest emergency department.
Do not rely on website messages or email for emergency assistance.
​
8. Digital Educational Resources
When downloadable guides, worksheets, checklists or other products become available, they will be educational resources rather than personalised treatment plans.
No particular medical, psychological, parenting or personal outcome is guaranteed.
​
9. Health Information and Privacy
Visitors do not need to provide medical histories, diagnoses or treatment records to read articles or subscribe to the ordinary newsletter.
General educational products will not require customers to submit medical histories.
Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through general contact channels.
If a visitor voluntarily submits health-related information, it may be processed through Wix or connected communication services in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

10. Research and AI-Assisted Content
Some material may be researched, drafted or edited with assistance from artificial intelligence.
AI-assisted information may contain inaccuracies or omissions.
Important medical information should be independently verified with qualified professionals and authoritative sources.
​
11. International Readers
Healthcare systems, treatment availability, medical standards and professional licensing vary between countries.
Information published from South Africa may not reflect healthcare requirements or practices in another jurisdiction.
Visitors should consult appropriately qualified professionals in their own location.
​
12. External Resources
The website may refer to external research, organisations, products or services.
Such references do not automatically constitute professional endorsement.
Material commercial relationships will be disclosed where legally required.
