When I became a single dad more than 20 years ago, I had to do it the hard way
The hard way was by making mistakes, asking for help, and practicing on all four of my kids. I wrote Single Dad Essentials so that your way as a single father wouldn’t have to be quite so hard. This is the book I wish I could have found back then.
I wrote Single Dad Essentials to provide something helpful for today’s single fathers. It’s my deepest wish that you’ll find these tips, suggestions, and thoughts helpful in being the best dad you can be. I also hope it’s a resource for you to use in improving your kids’ lives and for co-parenting with your former partner.
Single Dad Essentials is here to help you all have healthier, happier, more wholesome and rewarding lives.
Greg Wheeler, a certified relationship and life coach, draws on his life experience and training to share strategies on divorce, co-parenting, and life as a single father. Topics covered include creating a new parenting relationship with a former spouse, co-parenting agreements, the value of community, disciplining children, self-care and dating.
“Single Dad Essentials is like a 911 call response for single dads, providing wisdom, encouragement, hope, and key strategies for those looking to survive and thrive both as an individual and as a parent. Fathers navigating the path of single parenthood or co-parenting, while also striving to create happier, more engaged and loving relationships with their children, will find this brilliant book inspiring, instructive and empowering.”
