Helping Single Dads Manage Their Emotions

On Monday, January 30, we are continuing our series: "All Kinds of Families", addressing step/blended families, gay families, single parent families, foster families, adopted families and traditional families.

Our guest today is Ken Solin.

Like many men, author and speaker Ken Solin grew to manhood with little idea of what acting like a man was all about. Coming from an abusive home, he got his lessons in the streets and struggled with anger, abandonment, and other issues well into his forties. He’d raised two sons as a single father but was friendless and alone.
 
Twenty years ago, Ken put together a men’s group where eight guys met—and continue to meet—to teach each other the lessons of manhood most didn’t get from their fathers and to work through the issues that affect their relationships and limit their lives.
 
Ken chronicled the two-decade journey of his men’s group in his new book, Act Like a Man—available now on Amazon in Kindle or print editions, where it has garnered unanimous 5 Star reviews—and blogs daily on his website, www.kensolin.com. He’s a regular contributor to “The Huffington Post” and “The Good Men Project” and frequently receives hundreds of comments from readers.
