Be Good, Stay Strong, Love, Dad: A GenX Dad in a Digital World - Paperback

by Patrick McLaughlin (Author)

Are you lucky enough to be born between 1965 and 1980? You know who you are. The MTV Generation, The Free-Range Generation, The Forgotten Generation. The last generation to have lived without an email address, a cell phone or a script.

Welcome Generation X!
We were the last generation of undocumented fun. We remember it very well. How? The scars remind us. GenX learned about life early and usually the hard way. GenX is resilient, brilliant, broken, and beautiful. We're also supremely efficient, scary observant, and quietly calculating. We know at least a dozen places where they will never, ever find you. We know things that our kids and their kids need to know but no one today has the balls to tell them.
Born of personal letters from a GenX father to his sons arrives Be Good, Stay Strong, Love, Dad. This compendium of letters, lyrics and stories relays the lessons learned in our GenX environment and provides valuable information necessary for a smoother ride through life. These are lessons delivered in the hilarious reflection of 2 boys growing up. Be prepared for irreverent life precepts, candid reflection, bold stances, potty humor, and a whole bunch of cusswords. This is GenX. This is Fatherhood. Don't say you weren't warned.
