Download or read book Are We Divorced Too Daddy written by Vickie Gunnells-Hodge and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-12 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is hopefully the voice for every child who experiences any of the downs of divorce, simply because one parent chooses to do his own thing for “Just Right Now.” Divorce is hard enough for the child in and of itself without their having to deal with the fact that that loving missing parent believes his needs are more important than his child’s. This is where I believe a real difference exist in Americans and Jamaicans. Jamaicans seem to have a stronger feel for Family, Elders and loyalty. Fatherhood is not a temporary position! Most men here are more than enthused when it comes to promoting themselves for the sake of their business; it makes you wonder how does their enthusiasm diminish when it comes to involvement with their own flesh and blood! If they would just try giving themselves completely for a little while to that child they would surely see that their children’s love would fill the void they’re denying, and the love given and received from them will last longer, and weigh greater than anything else, forever.

Download or read book Daddy written by Emma Cline and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Girls comes a “brilliant” (The New York Times) story collection exploring the dark corners of human experience. “Daddy’s ten masterful, provocative stories confirm that Cline is a staggering talent.”—Esquire NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY An absentee father collects his son from boarding school after a shocking act of violence. A nanny to a celebrity family hides out in Laurel Canyon in the aftermath of a tabloid scandal. A young woman sells her underwear to strangers. A notorious guest arrives at a placid, not-quite rehab in the Southwest. In ten remarkable stories, Emma Cline portrays moments when the ordinary is disturbed, when daily life buckles, revealing the perversity and violence pulsing under the surface. She explores characters navigating the edge, the limits of themselves and those around them: power dynamics in families, in relationships, the distance between their true and false selves. They want connection, but what they provoke is often closer to self-sabotage. What are the costs of one’s choices? Of the moments when we act, or fail to act? These complexities are at the heart of Daddy, Emma Cline’s sharp-eyed illumination of the contrary impulses that animate our inner lives.

Download or read book What It Means to Be Daddy written by Jennifer Hamer and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2001-04-18 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absent fathers, the breakdown of the nuclear family, and single-mother households are often blamed for the poor quality of life experienced by many African American children. Jennifer F. Hamer challenges both the imposition of an inappropriate value system and the resulting ineffectual social policies. Most of what we know about fathers who do not live with their children is based on interviews with the mothers; this book is based on interviews with the fathers themselves. How do these fathers perceive their roles and responsibilities? This myth-shattering book challenges stereotypes of negotiating parenthood within the context of poverty, live-away status, and black American manhood. Hamer has collected the voices of eighty-eight men who participated in this study by first examining the macro or cultural elements that encompass men's daily lives. As part 1 explores these larger forces that define the social world of fathers, part 2 looks at what significant others expect of men as fathers and how they behave under these circumstances. Part 3 analyzes the particular parenting roles and functions of fathers, using narratives of individual men to tell their own stories. In this book, contemporary black live-away fathers talk about their goals, walk us through their workplaces, allow us to meet their families and children, and enable us to view the world of parenthood through their eyes.

Tommy thinks it's because his father doesn't want to be with him, that he hasn't been the best boy he can be, that he should try harder. But, Mommy tells Tommy that Daddy has a disease called "alcoholism." She helps Tommy, and his faithful dog Murphy, understand what this disease is and how it affects Daddy, and the whole family. She teaches Tommy that he is not responsible for Daddy's behavior and that gives Tommy the peace he needs to foster a healthy childhood."Carolyn Hannan Bell has given a gift to thousands of children and their parents with her book: "Daddy's Disease".

Book excerpt: Camisha Broussard's author debut, "Daddy Issues," offers a sometimes amusing, all-the-time hopeful, and eventual loving look at a dysfunctional parent-child relationship through the eyes of a fatherless daughter. Taking an atypical approach to the normal daughterless perspective, Camisha forces herself to reflect on the good things about her alcoholic father, humanizing him to the point of being more empathetic of the man he was, rather than remorseful of his shortcomings as the dad she wished him to be. From troubled teen to college professor, wife, and mother of four, Camisha's approach to the average fatherless daughter relationship is anything but stereotypical and is a profoundly holistic look at real life with real people who have real problems. From colorism to alcoholism, "Daddy Issues," promises readers a rollercoaster ride filled with every emotion imaginable reaching a final destination of forgiveness, hope, and finally love.
