This visionary book guides you to: practice inner fathering; a 7-step technique to heal the Lost Boy inside - and extend this healing to your son; deal with the flash flood years - teen anger, hostility, and fear; parent through divorce and be a good stepfather; recognize your critical role in your son's emotional, psychological, and spiritual development - a role only you can fill.Also included are real-life case studies and stories, as well as self-assessment quizzes and checklists.
