Myths and Lies About Dads: How They Hurt Us All is a groundbreaking book that destroys more than 100 of the most damaging beliefs about fathers. Using the most recent research, this pioneering work exposes these baseless beliefs and the toll they take on children's relationships with their fathers, parents' relationships with one another, and the physical and mental health of fathers and mothers.
Tackling a wide range of topics from custody laws, to children's toys, to the sexist behavior of counselors, pediatricians, and lawyers, Dr Linda Nielsen describes in vivid detail how these myths are linked to many of our most pressing issues:
Creating more gender equity in childcare and houseworkReducing child abuse, post-partum depression, and fathers' suicide ratesExpanding mothers' and fathers' options at home and at workReducing children's academic, behavioral, and emotional problemsLessening the pressures of parenting for both parentsChanging sexist policies and practices that hurt parents and childrenImproving the economic situations for parents and their children.
The book is not only a wake-up call for parents but also for students and professionals in medicine and family law, social work, child development, education, and in the publishing, advertising, media, and entertainment industries. Above all, the book empowers parents to free themselves from the myths and lies about fathers that bind them.

"This pioneering work fills an important gap: For a long time we have been waiting for guidance based on verified data in order to be able to deal with parental-child relationships objectively, especially in cases of family breakdown." Jose Torres, Professor at University of Malaga
"This is an extraordinary compendium of key research gathered into one place. It will be a critical resource for a wide variety of readers from college students to graduate school students to clinicians, to those involved in the courts with families." Patricia Papernow, psychologist, author, teacher, consultant, Director of Institute for Stepfamily Education
"Grounded in a wide range of research and draws implications that interest a general audience on current topics. The book's material has direct implications for public policy regarding family law, divorce, and child custody. Nielsen frames these issues in a clever and catchy manner that make the book an ideal choice for academic courses, with appeal to a much wider general audience." Richard Warshak, clinical and research psychologist and author
"Nielsen argues that fathers are just as competent, devoted, and central to kids' well-being as mothers. The author, a psychology professor at Wake Forest University, takes aim at the conventional wisdom that considers mothers the mainstays of child rearing and relegates fathers to a supporting role as breadwinners and child care assistants who can be dispensed with after a divorce. On the contrary, she asserts that dads are essential, stating that kids raised with their father in the home are healthier and better adjusted, have higher graduation rates, and are less prone to delinquency, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, depression, and anxiety. The author cites a wealth of sociological statistics and scientific studies but also probes the cultural conventions we apply to fatherhood, exploring everything from the caricature of uncommunicative, emotionally clueless husbands in pop-psychology tomes like Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus to the parade of incompetent, absentee, and deadbeat dads in movies. She writes in a lucid, down-to-earth style that's free of academic cant and replete with tart wisdom. Dads and moms alike will find much to ponder here. A fresh, eye-opening re-examination of the father's role in the family, full of stimulating contrarian insights." Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
