Product Description

Remain an integral part of your kids' lives during and after divorce

More and more, divorced fathers are finding out that, rather than being one half of a "broken" home, they can continue to play a crucial role in their children's lives.

You can, too. Turn to Always Dad and discover how to work with your ex to create a fulfilling extended family, one that can help ensure that your kids grow up in an enriching, loving environment.

Whether you're in the initial stages of divorce, dealing with the immediate aftermath or well past one, this book will provide down-to-earth ideas and strategies you can use right now.

Paul Mandelstein understands what you're experiencing. As a divorced father of three, he founded the Father Resource Network to help dads remain involved in their children’s lives. With Always Dad, he distills his many years of working with divorced fathers into one powerful volume.

Get back on track, develop fulfilling relationships, experience personal growth and -- most importantly -- be the father that your kid needs. Always Dad will help you at every step.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Guide, January 16, 2007
By Hal-Zina Bennett, Author-Writing Coach "Halbooks" (Northern California United States) - See all my reviews
When my son and daughter-in-law, with two young children, decided to divorce, I was concerned about all of them. I'd divorced from my son's mother when he was just four, and I'd found it difficult and heart-wrenching for all of us. "ALWAYS DAD" offered support and clear guidelines not only what to expect in a divorce but it also offered a reasonable, down-to-earth plan for how to minimize the pain and actually move forward on a positive and constructive path. I got two copies of the book--one for me and one for my son. The author's suggestions helped a lot--me when I was talking my son through some of the rough spots, and my son in his negotiations with his children's mom and the attorney. I highly recommend this book, not only for fathers in the midst of a divorce but for grandparents and friends whose compassion and love draws them into the fray. And come to think of it, if a couple is considering a divorce, or they feel their marriage is on rocky grounds, maybe they should be reading the book, too. The suggestions for establishing greater co-operation and understanding are very useful wherever there is tension. And when a couple can clearly see the road ahead, it may just give them second thoughts about splitting. I certainly wish I'd had this book when my son's mom and I went through our divorce. It would have brought a lot of comfort to all of us.
