I am definitely not this author's target audience as a queer man but I am interested in men's issues especially with regards to father's access and relationships with children. This book was definitely a poor choice to start with in the area as it was very anecdotal and lacked many research sources that I could look into for myself. As I struggled through this conservative mess, I could shake the feeling of being talked at instead of too and the ending less me feeling queasy and desperately in need of some pancakes. I guess I was just expecting more than I got.. oh well, it was free at the library so god bless.
