<p>Recent studies conducted by the National Center for Fathering and National Fatherhood Initiative show that only fifty percent of children spend their childhood in an intact family, and about one-third of all children live apart from their biological fathers.</p>

<p>As a father, your involvement is much greater than your mere presence. Fathers must ensure that their deeds exemplify their words in that the father exhibits the behavior he instills in his children.</p>

<p>Bruce D. Edwards, JD, LLM, has mentored hundreds of young children, and he&rsquo;s witnessed what it means when they have a father figure in their lives. In his book, Bruce shares impactful qualities to becoming a better father and role model. Learn how to:</p>

<p>&bull;comprehend what it means to spend quality time with children.</p>
