Critic reviews

"Keith Zafren is an inspiring guide on this adventure into the heart of fathering. [This book] will make you a better dad, and it may even help you forgive your own father for the mistakes he inevitably made." (Neil Chethik, executive director, The Carnegie Center for Literacy and Learning; author, FatherLoss and VoiceMale)

Huge Eye opener for me. Great book

I know for sure I need the coach Man I feel like crying Excellent work with this book.. Wonderful tools for Dads who committed..

very helpful

being a good dad has always been one of the most important things in my life. this book was really straightforward, validated many of the things I do as a dad, and had some great ideas for how to be even better. loved it

Great book

Really helpful inspiring book. I definitely recommend it to anyone that wants a good read

Worth the read.

This is a great to read if you are finally at the point in your life, when you're ready to heal. If you're not ready then this book will come across as a spiritual book or repetitive. Before you begin to this; you need to have the mindset to grow and change.

sales pitch at the end was a bit much

I loved the book, up until the last few chapters, when it became a bunch of testimonials and ads for coaching. Solid advice and so.e great tools presented

How to be a great Dad with help from Jesus

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Had the author stuck to the topic instead of bring Jesus into the conversation every five minutes he would have had a chance. Also - less anecdotal and more research would have been great.

What was most disappointing about Keith Zafren’s story?

Zafren seems really honest - and I believe he is. Frustratingly, like many books trying to be as long as possible, he feels the need to labour his points over and over and over. Fast forward is your friend.

How could the performance have been better?

This book needed to be edited.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

The book is based on the 3 A's - affirmation, acceptance and affection. While there were too many the stories were nice.

Any additional comments?

This is a great book if you are a Christian and a father or a father and don't care about the religious overtones.

Deeply disturbing

As a youth leader I was disgusted by this book. Regardless of any point that may make sense. I found this to be a pedophiles book on how to groom children. This is a dark and disturbing listen. I didn’t make it a quarter way through before I had to stop.
