Was macht einen guten Vater aus? Welche Rolle spielt er bei der Entwicklung seines Kindes? Eine ganz besondere, hat Professor Lieselotte Ahnert herausgefunden. In ihrem Hörbuch enthüllt die Psychologin erstmals wesentliche Erkenntnisse aus ihrer eigenen und der internationalen Väterforschung. Lieselotte Ahnert gibt Antworten auf zentrale Fragen der Vater-Kind-Beziehung: Was machen Väter anders als Mütter? Was können nur sie leisten und welchen Effekt hat das auf die Kinder? Ahnert weist nach, dass Väter viele Facetten der kindlichen Entwicklung bereichern.

When my son Sean was born with special needs, his mother and I were told he would never be “normal” and we mourned for the life we had imagined for him. We thought we would have to be his teacher and protector, more so than the typical child. However, we quickly learned that lessons can come from the most unlikely places and that our world would be changed for the better in ways we could have never envisioned. . . all because of Sean. Before he died on Father’s Day 2019, Sean taught me valuable life lessons. He taught me how to live like Sean, and these lessons are his legacy.

He spent over three decades proudly serving his country. But his greatest lessons came from one unique bond. For Dr. Burl Randolph, Jr., leadership began at home as a young boy. Though his father was a man of few words, he was molded by his parents' actions for a future filled with achievement. And when the decorated military officer faced his own retirement, he recalled the profound message his dad imparted many years before: "A man ought to always stay busy."

After separation and divorce, the greatest misconception some end up believing is that raising a child is primarily a mother’s responsibility. While the role of the mother is undoubtedly essential, a father disregarding his part in their children’s lives is extremely unfair, incorrect, and irresponsible. On the other hand, what is to be done when the parents split up? How is a father to nurture his children all by himself? Glen Warren’s I Am a Father Forever holds the answer to all these questions, and much more.

Most child advocates agree that fatherlessness goes beyond the boundaries of race and socio-economic status - and is the root of almost every social ill faced by children in our society. Children from fatherless homes are more likely to live in poverty, become involved in drugs, alcohol abuse, and crime, drop out of school, and suffer from health and emotional problems. Without any real, lasting intervention, this cycle continues and expands from generation to generation - unless an individual does what it takes to stop it. Marvin Charles is living proof that this is possible.

Whether you’re a dad or a mom, whether you’re rocking the "parent" part of your life and feel your vision for that radical idea or revolutionary business is on the back burner, or you’re a rock star in the business arena, at the top of your game and you know your relationships pay the price…this book is for you. Cereal Dad Preneur provides a road map and a practical guide to achieve success in all areas of your life.

A devastating car accident upends, disrupts, and derails a seemingly ordinary family. In the wake of devastation is where recovery and, ultimately, redemption are found. Gil Ahrens offers his own journey not so much as a prescription for adversity, but as a comforting guidepost for how we might cope when confronted with life-altering challenges...when what we thought was safe and secure is suddenly taken away. He reveals how God’s love and grace appear not necessarily when we want them, but certainly when we need them.

For people who happen to be parents (or might be soon). Because for every turdy nappy you sadly deposit into a gag-reflex-inducing bin, there's a moment that's less sh*t around the corner. This is not a audiobook that will help you grow (or raise) a human successfully. But this is a book that might, if you're not too emotionally battered - and can see through the permanent eye twitch - help you laugh a little more than you cry. But that's not guaranteed.
