In 21 concise chapters, he lays out the challenges involved in being a father and helps fathers balance their various needs and demands - personal, family, work-related, and financial.

Each chapter is hallmarked with questions at the end,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finding Time for Fatherhood: Men's Concerns as Parents (Paperback)
Bruce Lindon is a licensed marriage and family therapist who draws upon his years of experience and expertise to provide men with insights into the emotional challenges confronting present-day dads in Finding Time For Fatherhood. With text ideal for the non-specialist general reader, each chapter is hallmarked with questions at the end to provide the reader with a chance to consider personal experiences and discuss the issues raised with their spouse, partner, or other dads. Finding Time For Fatherhood is a valued and much appreciated contribution to the growing library of parenting books in general, and male parenting in particular.

1.0 out of 5 stars
A pedantic diatribe of thoughtless conjecture.,
By Wake Morningside (Urbana, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finding Time for Fatherhood: Men's Concerns as Parents (Paperback)
I have no idea what this man is talking about. His approach to fatherhood is so archaic he makes the staunchest 1950s conservative look like a member of the anarchist liberation front. It's obvious Dr. Linton's writing stems from an attempt to justify his own shortcomings as a father. A dismal read even for the 50 cent bin at the used book store.
