These are the difficult questions the Hories tackle in this vital and insightful book. They give perspective on our current crisis and needs by considering different models of fathering in many cultures throughout history. Have children always been independent and rebellious? Are fathers usually distant? How has the modern world changed parenting?
Now we are reaping the harvest of a fatherless society - the lifelong guilt, insecurity and inferiority of millions of children raised without fathers are compounded by their problems in sexual, intellectual and moral development. This makes rebuilding fatherhood an essential task that begins one family at a time.
The authors offer many practical suggestions for how husbands and wives can work together. They show dearly how fathers can be a gateway to the world, define healthy limits, build security and trust in children, discipline by guiding without breaking, and teach physical skills and faith in God. There are also suggestions for single mothers and stepfathers.
Often, for both fathers and mothers, the starting place is to come to terms with their own fathers. The authors show how wounds from one's own parents can be healed as the foundation for good fathering.

Store description
Established in 1991, as family run used bookstore with thousands of gently read books, in stock to chose from. How it all came about I like to read and in about 1987 the house got full. The spare bedroom was literally boxed in. Then in May of 1991 the garage over flowed and then it happen the books had to go as their was no more room in the house or in the garage. So the Book Shop was opened. Well I'm still here and a lot more books have passed through the door of our shop the Ye Old Bookworm. All I wanted was a quite little used bookstore. Well that's how it was suppose to happen. We started with 69,873 and growing to well over 170,000. we got so many book we don't even know what we got. I never planned on being rich and famous. Well I'm still not rich, but the old man is really cleaning up (he's the janitor) and a lot of folks know us now so were sort of famous. We would like to get to know you too.
