Guest Byron Ricks, who is the author of “Searching for Dad,” shared his views about growing up without a father and how that impacted him in terms of identity, anger, belonging, self value, character development, respect, sexuality and love. He describes his search to fill the void that his missing father created in his childhood. Eric, a studio guest on the show is a 25 year old father, who also had a physically absent biological father and equally absent stepfather. Eric described how those experiences influenced his relationship for the better with his own kids. Eric explained that he attempts to provide for his children what he didn’t have, but craved. He shared that raising his boys requires showing the son what a male should be but girls need to be shown what to look for in life. “Searching for Dad” is a very readable, poignant story that is much more than a child’s search for his absent dad. It is filled with life’s lessons in a way that is very informative and appealing. Visit his web site to learn more about his workshops and availability to speak to your group.
