Present But Missing
What Your Child Needs When You’re in the Room But Not in the Moment
You stayed. You showed up. You were there. And somehow — your child still needed more of you than the room could hold. This book is for the father who was present but missing.

About This Book
Most fathers who are emotionally absent from their children never intended to be. They provided. They showed up. They stayed. And somehow, their child still grew up feeling like their father was somewhere else in every room he was ever in.
Present But Missing is not a book about deadbeat dads. It is a book about the father who was there — and what it cost his child that he was never fully present. And what is still possible if he chooses to arrive.
“Your child doesn’t need a perfect father. They need a present one.”
