As a parent educator, I am honored to work with families every week.  By far the most successful families have an involved, caring and supportive male in them.  The very lucky ones have a dad in residence.  For many that is not possible and so teachers, coaches, uncles and grandpas fill in.Derek has created an affordable easy to read and understand handbook for those who are filling the shoes  of a role model in the lives of children.  I am grateful for the time and effort he has put into creating this guide for men who are not only fathers but are looked up to as strong, loving caring adults by young people.I not only give the book 5 stars, but applaud all those men who are willing to step up to the plate as Dads.When I first started parenting classes, I had only women attendees.  Now the mixture is about 50/50 men and women. The males are every bit as involved and knowledgeable about their kid's concerns as the moms. The family, community, nation and world benefit when males share in the parenting and guidance of the family.Judy Helm Wright aka Auntie Artichoke, the storytelling trainer77 Ways to Get Your Kids to Help at Home (77 Ways to Parent Series)
