Synopsis

Fatherhood is a foundational human endeavor steeped in the history of familial and societal development. Every father has within himself the makings of a "complete" parent in terms of his sense of fulfillment.

Are you the type of father that you truly want to be? Do you feel secure in your decision-making? Do you sense that you come across as too strict at times, or too lenient? Can you be playful and spontaneous when you want to be? Are you comfortable with having those difficult conversations?

Drawing on Carl Jung's theories, this book discusses several father archetypes, presenting a positive view of fatherhood that emphasizes its manifestations and benefits in childrens' lives rather than the difficulties and struggles of parenting.
