Family First: Tales of a Working Father

Summary: It's a Book That's Been Needed for a Long Time
Review: Men putting their families before careers, promotions and fatter paychecks? That isn't the stereotypical image most of us have of career-minded fathers. Yet that's what Robert Blodgett proposes men do in his book, "Family First."

It's a notion, and a book that has been needed for a long time.

Blodgett will disturb a few people with this book, but a lot of fathers will not only be grateful for what Blodgett proposes, but for his "here's how to do it" approach. He makes it clear how readers who want to can apply his techniques in their own lives. This isn't a book of "shoulds". It shows readers how to give one's family priority and still have a viable career. "Family First was written to give you tools, ideas and strategies to help you navigate through your own challenges in life," writes Blogett toward the end of his book. Those who read Family First, and apply Blodgett's techniques in their lives, will probably be grateful they did. I just wish such a book had been written 30+ years ago when our children were young. What a difference it might have made.
