Divorce is tough on kids, and different children respond in different ways. Of course, it’s tough on a dad too, but as much as possible, it’s best to be understanding, patient, and positive.

Sadly, the truth is we are surrounded by millions and millions of Dead Men Walking. These men are in solitary confinement. They're trapped in a cell in their mind and in their emotions and in their circumstances. Friends, we have got to do something to stop this slide.
