Two books. Both ends of the same chain.
One is for the father. One is for his son, and for any father who wants to know what's going on behind his kid's face. Same method, same family. The Better Father is built from both.
The Accountable Life
Ray is fifty-three. He built a mechanical contracting company from one truck and a refusal to be outlasted, and there's an offer on the table to buy it. He came for a tiebreaker. What he finds is a son's message he never actually read, a shop floor forty years old, and the question he's never once let himself ask.
"You don't need to be fixed. You need to see something you've been standing too close to."

Nobody's Watching
Chet is fifteen, the funniest kid at the table, and he can't feel summer coming. He's sent to his grandfather Ray for the summer: an old man who wore the same face for forty years and isn't grading it. A truck that doesn't run. A porch at three in the morning. And the question on the cover.
"Somebody is watching. The whole time. The one behind your eyes."

A father reads The Accountable Life. His son reads Nobody's Watching. Neither has to talk about it. Sometimes the best conversation of the summer starts with "I read the part about the porch."
Then practice it
Reading changes what you see. Practice changes what you do. The Better Father turns both books into eight weeks of small, daily reps. See what's inside.
