none call me dad
None Call Me Dad is the true, mesmerizing story of a 21st Century dad. On two weeks notice, Ky Owen becomes an adoptive father to a six-year-old son. Five years later, on two days notice, he becomes a father to a teenage daughter. Along the way he assumes the role of father figure to four other kids. &ldquo,None call me dad,&rdquo, Owen writes, &ldquo,But they know that&rsquo,s who I am.&rdquo, Intriguing and imaginative chapter titles chart a journey that turns into a virtual roller coaster ride of parenting an ever-changing alternative family. None Call Me Dad is the freewheeling narrative of facing the challenges of truancy and Type 1 diabetes, hopping trains and &ldquo,flying a sign,&rdquo, and kids finding their way on their own terms. At the same time, the book captures the joy and excitement of father-son trips to March Madness and the Rose Bowl, and father-daughter weekends on Broadway in Nashville and the French Quarter of New Orleans. More than a memoir, it is a story of always being there for your kids. None Call Me Dad is a story of forgiveness, acceptance, and love. Told in the author&rsquo,s unique writer&rsquo,s voice, the story is both poignant and funny. Readers feel a father&rsquo,s angst as he learns to forgive his kids&rsquo, mistakes, to accept their life choices, and to continue to show his love. &ldquo,They&rsquo,re my kids, and I&rsquo,ll always be here for them. Even though none call me dad.&rdquo,  ,_,
