About this audiobook

Choosing who you have a child with may be the most important decision of your life. And one of the most costly mistakes you can make is believing parenthood will change someone who has never shown the character to sustain it. Too many people ignore red flags, hoping: He’ll mature when the baby comes Responsibility will transform him Love will make him step up Fatherhood will awaken something in him But parenthood does not create discipline, empathy, patience, or accountability.
