About this audiobook
Quite a few dads spend time with their kids. However, many have no clue what their kids really need. Enter author Jay Payleitner, veteran dad of five, who's also struggled with how to build up his children's lives. His 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad combines straightforward features with step-up-to-the-mark challenges men will appreciate: NO exhaustive (and exhausting) lists of things you should do. NO criticism of dads for being men and acting like men. Dads will feel respected and empowered, and gain confidence to initiate activities that build lifelong positives into their kids.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/552 Things Kids Need from a Dad: What Fathers Can Do to Make a Lifelong Difference by Jay K. PayleitnerWhy I picked up this book: I was in the airport going to New Mexico for a conference to get CME’s and had the Black Elk Speaks book. I was at the airport too early and finished that book before our departure so I went into the gift shop to get a new book. The title interested me and it is something I try to do with my 5 amazing children so I grabbed it. I also know this publisher puts out Christian books so I wanted to read it.Why I finished this book: It was a quick read, a Christian perspective had some good topics and some realistic and simple things to consider. Thoughts: There were 52 different ideas that included simple rules, advice and experiences the author sees as important to pass on to other fathers that I wanted to take in. Rating: I’d give it a 3.5 out of 5 star rating because it had some good ideas and others I did not like too much so I’d rate it as I did.
