Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Baby Boomer Dad is a transformative guide for parents-especially those who begin their journey in midlife-who want to raise resilient, motivated, and well-rounded children in the turbulence of today's digital age. Drawing upon decades of professional expertise in designing learning spaces, firsthand experience as an older father, and 30 years of insights from educators worldwide, this book offers a rare blend of modern science and timeless wisdom.Author Raymond C. Bordwell, FAIA, LEED AP, both an acclaimed architect and devoted dad, shares the intentional roadmap he and his wife used to raise twin daughters to become engaged, confident, and independent young women. Blending deeply personal stories with the latest developmental research, Bordwell demonstrates how being an "older parent" is both a unique challenge and an extraordinary advantage in building a child's foundation for lifelong flourishing.The book delves into 26 comprehensive chapters, each focused on a critical dimension of modern parenting, from instilling faith and values to orchestrating family schedules, nurturing whole-brain thinking, and navigating the minefields of technology and peer culture. Readers learn not just what to do, but how to adapt these principles to fit their own family's context-no matter how unconventional their path to parenthood may be.Structured to cover the main domains of child development-spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical-The Baby Boomer Dad argues that intentionally curated experiences, diversity of exposure, and consistent parental modeling produce young adults ready to thrive beyond childhood's safety net. Bordwell emphasizes the power of reading and writing, the irreplaceable role of sports and music, the art of teaching independence, and the necessity of whole-brain cognition in a rapidly evolving world.Special attention is given to the realities of parenting later in life: managing energy, balancing professional and family life, forging community with younger parents, planning for the future, and building resilience in children who will one day live without you. Each chapter is enriched with "Dad Wisdom," actionable frameworks, reflection questions, and practical tools designed for busy professionals seeking clarity amidst today's overwhelming parenting advice.The Baby Boomer Dad is not a one-size-fits-all manual. Instead, it is an essential, customizable blueprint for parents who want to ground their families in lasting principles while empowering their children to navigate the uncertainty, distraction, and complexity that define our era. Whether you are entering parenthood after 40, starting a new family chapter, or seeking timeless wisdom to counter today's fleeting trends, this book distills decades of experience into a hopeful, pragmatic guide for leaving a living legacy-one conversation, lesson, and memory at a time.
