Kristoper Kaliebe created Father's Little Helper to promote the involvement of Fathers and Father Figures in the lives of his patients.
Caretakers in doctor Kaliebe's Child and Adolescent Psychiatry cinics are 80 to 90% female. Yet most of his patients are boys and young men. Coincidence?
Somehow fathers and other adult men have been separated from our children. We need a way to get them involved if we are serious about changing the lives of our boys and young men.
At risk boys are frequently labeled and given psychotropic medications without any attention paid to the lack of supervision or male role models.
1 - We all have things to learn
2 - Involvement shows we care
3 - If we don't show young men how to live, they will learn it from the media and their peers
