Chapter authors also explore parental gatekeeping processes in at-risk families, including separated and divorced families and those with adolescent and nonresident fathers.

“Baby Gorilla” was a nickname I shared with my daughter. But the night she found me face-down on the living room carpet, reeking of booze and shame, her tiny voice using that nickname to ask “why” changed everything. This audiobook tells my unfiltered story of addiction, recovery, and redemption. From couch-surfing and overdosing in LA, nearly drinking myself to death, to building Gyminny Kids into an eight-figure business that now shapes the lives of thousands of children each week, to becoming a husband and father of five, this journey is proof that pain can be transformed into strength.

With the right tools, you can break the cycle, control your emotions, and rebuild what matters most: your peace, your relationships, and your legacy as a father.
