The stifled male, disconnected and out of touch, fills the void with apathy or anger, and the toll is staggering: short, unhealthy lives, ruined relationships, and damaged children. This destructive behavior repeats itself in the next generation as the sins of the father continue the cycle. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In \u003ci\u003e Becoming the Kind Father, \u003c\/i\u003e Calvin Sandborn aims to break that cycle. His intensely personal story is heart-searing and inspirational. Brought up to fear his father's alcohol-fueled fury and hateful put-downs, the author buried his feelings and fine-tuned his own rage. His father's early death and the collapse of the author's marriage provided catalysts for change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword; Prologue; Patriarchys Price; Saying Goodbye to the Harsh Father; Discovering the Kind Father; Looking Inside; Speaking What I Feel; Anger: Escape from Feeling; Forgiveness and Freedom; Epilogue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Society Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359251333463,"sku":"9780865715820","price":14.24,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780865715820.jpg?v=1754124112","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/becoming-the-kind-father-9780865715820","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
