The Honorable Gregory W. Slayton, best-selling author and father of four, doesn’t beat around the bush:

“Being a good dad isn’t only vital for the future of our families and our society . . . it is critical to our own development as men.” Be a Better Dad Today is an inspirational and practical guidebook for every father who wants to become the best dad he can be for his family’s sake and his own. With humor, empathy, common sense, tough talk and engaging stories from his personal experience, Slayton reveals user-friendly, simple-but never- simplistic techniques that will help every dad fulfill his God-given responsibilities.

Be A Better Dad Today! is a global bestseller with over 1 million copies in print, translated into more than 20+ languages, and into its 9th printing, for a reason: it’s one of the best books on fatherhood you will ever read. Warmly endorsed by dozens of America’s best-known and most respected fathers, the book lays out the “Ten Tools of Fatherhood” that will help every dad who uses them. The book is the product of Slayton’s 30- year study of fatherhood on five different continents, his research, and his own experience raising four children with his wife of 26 years.

How Important is a dad? “Statistics regarding the outcomes of fatherless children are staggering: 90% of all teen runaways come from homes with no father, and more than 60% of all teen suicides occur among young people without fathers involved in their lives.” Trey Dimsdale, (CRCD)
