Description
An inspirational and hands-on guide to fatherhood from an experienced activist, leader, and dad
In The 24:7 Dad, the President of National Fatherhood Initiative®, Christopher A. Brown, delivers an inspiring and practical guide that's perfect for all dads who want to provide their children with the most supportive, safe, and nurturing childhood possible. Drawing on his extensive professional experience as an anthropologist, activist, and father, Brown walks you through twelve research-based habits that will help you offer your children the best of yourself.
The book explains how to avoid the most common mistakes and pitfalls that ensnare even the most well-intentioned dads and demonstrates how to develop the six critical traits of exceptional, confident fathers: self-awareness, self-care, fathering skills, parenting skills, relationship skills, and stewardship.
Inside the book:
- A detailed discussion of how to develop and sustain insight and self-awareness
- Step-by-step walkthroughs for creating self-care habits that sustain you and allow you to meet your obligations as a father
- Learn the most vital skills for being the dad your children and family need you to be
- Discover how to engage with your community and pay your good fortune forward in a way that acts as an example to your children and improves the lives of those around you
A must-read guide for first-time and experienced dads, The 24:7 Dad is also an invaluable resource for professionals working in human service organizations, mums who want to learn more about fatherhood, and anyone else thinking about having or caring for children.
