Where Are Your Children?
Today, too many children grow up in father-absent families because of divorces, separations, and births to un-wed mothers and fathers. These children have a higher risk for academic, social and psychological problems.
Pro-active fathers can make a positive difference.
On the Outside Looking In challenges the hearts of men to be good fathers in spite of being separated from their children.
With On the Outside Looking In separated-fathers can:
• become better parents
• make relationships with their children work
• gain cooperation from their children’s mother
• obtain resources for help with starting over
• break the cycles of hopelessness
On the Outside Looking In brings more awareness to the problems of father-absent families while also encouraging separated-fathers to step-to-the-plate with their children.
The principles contained in On the Outside Looking In have enabled men to handle the rigors of fatherhood. It will persuade some separated-fathers to come in from the cold.
On the Outside Looking In springs from the heart of Akili Kumasi and tells much of what he learned while striving to be the father that God positioned him to be.
“Being a father is one of the greatest rewards and one of the most significant challenges a man can face. No father should miss this God-given responsibility and blessing.” (Author: Akili Kumasi)
