Drawing on his extensive speaking at youth events throughout the country, and with the help of his father, Josh Weidmann identifies eight specific things children want from their
fathers. These include such needs as the desire to be loved, to be listened to, and to be coached. The book is easy to read, flows well, and deals with important subject matter. It is certainly a good resource for fathers, and I would recommend mothers read it as well to better understand the relationship between dads and their teens.
