Synopsis

Addressing the issue of how men in demanding jobs can ensure they are good fathers to their children, this guide presents numerous ways to improve both the quality and amount of time that fathers spend with their children. Interviewed are more than 75 men from different backgrounds and professions, from pig farmers and plumbers to doctors and politicians. These men speak about the ways they balance demanding jobs with being food dads and offer suggestions for making work help, rather than hinder, fathering. All fathers, whether in separated or intact families, can benefit from the experiences of these successful, busy dads.

In this collection of valuable fathering ideas, over 75 busy men (from pig farmers to the politicians) speak about how they balance demanding jobs with being a good dad. Some of the questions addressed in the book are: How can I make better use of my limited time with my kids? What do children need from their father? What have other busy men done to be effective dads?
