Despite the burgeoning literature on the role of the father in child development and on fathering as a developmental stage, surprisingly little has been written about the psychiatrically impaired father. In Fathers Who Fail, Melvin Lansky remedies this glaring lacuna in the literature. Drawing on contemporary psychoanalysis, family systems theory, and the sociology of conflict, he delineates the spectrum of psychopathological predicaments that undermine the ability of the father to be a father. Out of his sensitive integration of the intrapsychic and intrafamilial contexts of paternal failure emerges a richly textured portrait of psychiatrically impaired fathers, of fathers who fail. Lansky's probing discussion of narcissistic equilibrium in the family system enables him to chart the natural history common to the symptomatic impulsive actions of impaired fathers. He then considers specific manifestations of paternal dysfunction within this shared framework of heightened familial conflict and the failure of intrafamilial defenses to common shame. Domestic violence, suicide, the intensification of trauma, posttraumatic nightmares, catastrophic reactions in organic brain syndrome, and the murder of a spouse are among the major "symptoms" that he explores. In each instance, Lansky carefully sketches the progression of vulnerability and turbulence from the father's personality, to the family system, and thence to the symptomatic eruption in question. In his concluding chapter, he comments tellingly on the unconscious obstacles - on the part of both patients and therapists - to treating impaired fathers. The obstacles cut across different clinical modalities, underscoring the need for multimodal responses to fathers who fail.

In today's society, we see many single-mother homes. Mothers are forced to rear children without fathers, while holding down two or mores jobs in order to provide for the family. Single mothers, stay strong, God bless you, and thanks for not giving up. My name is Angelleta Patten-Carter, and I was born in Westmoreland, Jamaica West Indies. I am a wife and a mother of three. I attended Manning's High School where I received my diploma. Upon migrating to the United States in 1991, I earned my GED, and went further and received my A.A. degree in Business Administration at Broward College, a B.S. in Paralegal Studies at Nova Southeastern University, and an M.B.A. in Health Services Administration at Nova Southeastern University. I am a preacher of the gospel, a member of the Praise Team, Prayer Team, Prison Ministry, Team Board Member for the Young Ladies Ministry, and Vice President for the Ladies Ministry at the 6th Avenue Church of God, Miami, FL.

"When a 'Father' Fails" is the life story of an Urban Pastor who is a successful public figure, but in private a failure as a father to his children. Pastor Ali shares his struggles with being a "Father" to his flock and a "Father" to his children. He also shares his battles with infidelity, drugs and obesity. This book is intended to encourage failing fathers to reconnect with their children and to lift the spirit of those children who have been wounded by the failures of their fathers.

When your earthly father has hurt you, how can you know God as a loving heavenly Father? Some say it can't happen unless someone will stand in your father's place, giving you a loving new image to use in relating to God. Is this true? David Powlison says that this well-intentioned perspective will fail to meet the need. It overlooks the way our own hearts contribute to our view of God. And it makes our hope for change dependent on another person instead of connection us to the power of Christ and his Word. In encouraging yet challenging ways, Powlison shows us that God is at work through hand despite our fathers failures to help us know him as our true heavenly Father.

Maligned as "deadbeat dads" or sexually and financially irresponsible inner-city fathers and overlooked in discussions of poverty and family policy, economically vulnerable nonresident fathers are a greatly misunderstood population. Failing Our Fathers summarizes the most recent quantitative and qualitative research, and undertakes new analyses to fill in important gaps, to produce a comprehensive picture of who these fathers are, what types of relationships they have with their families and children, and the challenges they face meeting what their loved ones and taxpayers expect from them. The great majority of these men see their children on a regular basis, despite the financial, legal, and extra-legal barriers they face. Besides requiring fathers to support their children, we must enable them to do so by supplementing their earnings and supporting their co-parenting, in ways that parallel how we require and enable vulnerable single mothers to support their children. The book lays out specific reforms required to achieve this goal as well as tips for those resources for economically vulnerable nonresident fathers.

Across the political spectrum, unwed fatherhood is denounced as one of the leading social problems of today. Doing the Best I Can is a strikingly rich, paradigm-shifting look at fatherhood among inner-city men often dismissed as “deadbeat dads.” Kathryn Edin and Timothy J. Nelson examine how couples in challenging straits come together and get pregnant so quickly—without planning. The authors chronicle the high hopes for forging lasting family bonds that pregnancy inspires, and pinpoint the fatal flaws that often lead to the relationship’s demise. They offer keen insight into a radical redefinition of family life where the father-child bond is central and parental ties are peripheral. Drawing on years of fieldwork, Doing the Best I Can shows how mammoth economic and cultural changes have transformed the meaning of fatherhood among the urban poor. Intimate interviews with more than 100 fathers make real the significant obstacles faced by low-income men at every step in the familial process: from the difficulties of romantic relationships, to decision-making dilemmas at conception, to the often celebratory moment of birth, and finally to the hardships that accompany the early years of the child's life, and beyond.

What would you get if you paired a tale about a bratty prince and a streetwise whipping boy with a fictional portrait of America in the 1930s? You would get a study of the father-son relationship that is so compelling it would make the powerful weapons of the Second Punic War seem like oversized toys. This study, one that compares the adolescent males in The Whipping Boy with the narrator in Invisible Man, presents every male child's odyssey to adulthood. It describes each male's striving, in the words of the Apostle Paul, "to put away childish things." In order to do this, they must first address the soul-warring elephant in the room-unresolved father-son relationship issues. Using a methodology much like the three-fold chord of King Solomon, this study ties together Erik Erikson's Psychosocial Development Theory, sociological and psychological academic studies, and the Word of GOD to demonstrate correlation between father-son relationships and psychosocial development. More than fascinating, this study uncovers both the causes and effects of Godless mentoring.

More than 20 million children live without the presence of their biological fathers. About 57% of African-Americans, 31% of Hispanics, and 20% of Caucasians are foreign to their fathers. Consequently, there is a fatherless factor when facing social ills. It leads to a greater risk of poverty, teen pregnancy, behavioral problems, imprisonment, drop-outs, crimes, abuse and neglect. There is a pattern to prevent these statistics. Where Is My Father? tackles this epidemic by identifying the pattern that God prescribed for fatherhood. Fathers are more than providers and protectors - they prescribe patterns for life. Unfortunately, moms are unable to fill this gap in patternless homes. When dads disconnect, they cause children to suffer on spiritual life-support. This book administers healing by exposing the proper pattern for prosperous, productive and positive lives. Where Is My Father? equally impacts fatherless children, single-mothers, and dads who fail to recognition their power, purpose and pattern.
