About this title

From the Author

Here's why I wrote this book & what it can do.
When my oldest son announced his marriage plans I'd just returned from counseling a man whose wife was leaving him because he was an insensitive husband and father. I realized my two sons could face this same problem unless they learned some simple principles they'd never been taught in school. I decided to draw on my almost twenty years experience as a marriage and family counselor to write an easy-to-use, practical book to help them and other men be the kind of husbands and fathers they wanted to be.

My husband and I started thinking about what men most need to know and these became the 52 book divisions. Some of the subjects are: how to model integrity and teach it to your kids, provide wise family leadership, nurture your wife as a partner, respond sensitively to your children's intangible needs, model and teach positive values about money and work, and develop ways to have fun with your children.

We hope first of all that this book will help men be the fathers and husbands their wives and children will be proud of and second that men will discover how much fun their family can be.

This is not a book of boring theory. Instead it contains short, easy-to-read, real examples of men learning these 52 ways and applying them in their families. Each section ends with suggestions for personal application. Men, you are great, but hopefully this book will make you even greater!
