Do Fathers Matter?

Do Fathers Matter? by Paul Raeburn was just a series of "studies" that "proved" the importance of fathers. Books that just quote dozens of studies and draw conclusions which suit the author's agenda are ten a penny. 2/10

The Available Parent

The Available Parent: Radical Optimism for Raising Teens and Tweens by John Duffy is the latest parenting book and was pretty similar to the rest. The same comment applies: you need to keep re-reading this book to really retain the knowledge in it. It's also one of those books where the title says it all and is the thing to retain if anything. The rest is detail and too generalised to be of much specific help. 5/10
