Why "theRelationalFather" blog?

For the past 3 1/2 years,  I have invested specific time, money, and energy towards the research of the subject matter of fathers and sons.  Specifically, my original research has confirmed that a father influences his son's stage called emerging adulthood. Jeffrey Jenson Arnett has identified this new stage of development that spans from the ages of 18-25.  The key result I have learned is that the most important characteristic that contributes to an emotionally healthy son is simply a relational father. To that end, I have created this blog along with a bi-monthly newsletter to provide both encouragement and resources to fathers. If you desire to subscribe to this newsletter, you can do so here.
