John: We spend so much time thinking and engaging in our careers, crafting our skillset, developing hobbies, and diligently managing our football fantasy teams. What if we took that same passion and intention into developing our Sons?
Thinking more deeply about one of the most important relationships in our life (children) has led to a masterful description of Jon Tyson's journey, experience, and lessons with his son. I love the vulnerability and the challenges that are presented. I'm grateful for someone who was willing to rediscover the lost ideas that have helped raise sons.
I love the description of the 5 types of fathers:
5 kinds of fathers
1. irresponsible father -zero involvement with kids, bails
2. ignorant father - no idea what he’s doing and wreaks havoc in kids lives without realizing it

Michael Tabet: I'm a youth pastor and a son. I read this book to see how it would fare as a resource for the parents of the students in my care. I think every father of a son in my group needs this book. YPs need more parents who are as intentionally invested in their sons, our ministries would thrive in such a culture.
As a son, I see a number of the good things my father did commended but if he had this research and this path what a different adolescence I would have had.
