Fatherhood is a foundational human endeavor steeped in the history of familial and societal development. Every father has within himself the makings of a "complete" parent in terms of his sense of fulfillment.
Are you the type of father that you truly want to be? Do you feel secure in your decision-making? Do you sense that you come across as too strict at times, or too lenient? Can you be playful and spontaneous when you want to be? Are you comfortable with having those difficult conversations?
Drawing on Carl Jung's theories, this book discusses several father archetypes, presenting a positive view of fatherhood that emphasizes its manifestations and benefits in childrens' lives rather than the difficulties and struggles of parenting.
Recenzijos
Incorporates wide-ranging viewpoints on what modern fatherhood means and examines its essential features.... includes many diagrams and case reports; its scholarly approach makes it ideally suited for a course on this subject.... There is much useful knowledge in the book about desirable and less worthy fatherhood characteristics, making it valuable to clinicians seeking to inspire more praiseworthy fathering characteristics among patients aiming to improve their paternal skills.... recommendedChoice.
