The relationship between a father and a son is like no other. Dads have a God-given role to protect and provide for their families, always striving to teach their sons the life skills they'll need to grow into honorable men. That may seem like a tall order. But being a good father isn't so much what kind of parent you are as what kind of person you are. Better Dads, Stronger Sons can show you: how to talk with your son about important topics such as dating, sexual purity, respect, and self-discipline; understand why male bonding, discipline, and spiritual leadership are vital to your relationship with your son; recognize and avoid the top ten mistakes a father can make.
