The Westin at Times Square Comes to the Aid of Desperate Housedads
Steak Dinner, Grilling Tools, Macho Massage & More
NEW YORK, NY, May 23, 2006. The United States Labor Department recently reported there are 1.2 million fathers in the U.S. who have traded in business suits and briefcases for bibs and diaper bags. Though the number of stay-at-home moms is still higher than that of stay-at-home fathers, the trend of domestic dads is on the rise, even making it into last fall's plotline of ABC's hit show Desperate Housewives. In honor of Father's Day, The Westin New York at Times Square is coming to the aid of the new crop of desperate "housedads" with a package geared to help dads reconnect with their inner macho man.
Valid June 15, 2006 through August 31, 2006, the Desperate Housedads package is priced at $599 per person, per night,* boasting a manly dinner at Shula's Steak House and a set of grill tools. Since staying at home with the little ones can be stressful, no matter how tough dad is, the package also includes a masculine massage. Of course, a phone call home to check in with the clan is also included. When booking, please ask for rate plan FATHERS.
