“Fatherlessness is not always about missing people. Sometimes, it’s about missing connection.” – Terri Cole

Intro

Did you know that 1 in 4 children in the US grows up without a father?

Or that 80% of single-parent homes are led by mothers?

These statistics may not come as a surprise, but what we don’t talk about are the millions of other kids who may have dads who are physically present but emotionally absent. Dads who are abusive, addicted, sporadic, neglectful, or narcissistic. 

As Father’s Day approaches, I wanted to explore how father wounds can impact our relationships, self-worth, and overall success. I’ll share my own experiences, debunk some father wound myths, and offer you ideas on how to heal and celebrate Father’s Day differently.
