In a world full of distractions, Steve Adams discusses his book, Now What?.
His personal experience illustrates the importance of fathers in the lives of their children. The US Census Bureau reported over 18 million US children without a father in the household. Divorce can be devastating. But kids from homes with divorced parents can thrive...and they do in countless examples.
Steve emphasizes the point that what you do should be done as a choice. Chasing success at the expense of one's most important relationships is a choice. Make choices that you can live with.
