Book Overview

Making the Most of the Opportunity of Your Lifetime... Fatherhood will give you some of the greatest challenges -- and the greatest opportunities -- you will ever lace. Along with the pleasure your children can bring, you'll encounter new demands and situations that will help you to change and grow as a person. Parenting gives you an unparalleled chance to develop new skills and capabilities. From generosity to patience, from sensitivity to communication -- the lessons that you learn can help you feel happier and more fulfilled at home, on the job, in your marriage, and as a person. The Girl of Fatherhood emphasizes the rewards of fatherhood and offers expert, proven advice you can use to manage the many roles you're asked to play: father, husband, provider, teacher, and disciplinarian. Author Aaron Hass includes tips on adjusting to the changes that having children creates in a marriage, understanding the importance of clear communication within the family, learning how to discipline without anger, and learning how to really value and enjoy the time you spend with your children. He also includes special advice for divorced dads and stepfathers. Fatherhood can be the experience of a lifetime, and The Gift of Fatherhood will help you get the most out of your parenting experience.

Great advice from a PhD who's done his homework

Though it reads a bit like a college text, Gift of Fatherhood contains solid, well-organized, how-to details on becoming a better father. Hass's timeless exhortations are fine-tuned for Dad's looking to hone their skills, but Moms will certainly gain insight, too. This densely-packed book covers just about everything, including obstacles, learning to love your kids more, enjoy parenting, finding time, why your wife matters, etc. Hass dovetails nicely with Faber/Mazlish (How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk) and Cline/Fay (Parenting With Love and Logic). The book's final two chapters deal with divorce and stepdads. One small nit: this Simon & Shuster book would be easier to read with whiter paper or a larger font.
