Living with Jackie Chan

Reach for this book when your teenager is struggling with intense guilt, the consequences of a major life mistake, or the feeling that they are a 'bad person' beyond redemption. It provides a vital mirror for those navigating the aftermath of unplanned teen fatherhood and the complicated emotions of accountability. Josh is living with his eccentric, martial-arts-loving uncle to escape the shame of his past. Through the disciplined practice of karate and a burgeoning friendship with the girl upstairs, he begins the grueling process of self-forgiveness. It is a raw, realistic look at male vulnerability and the slow road to healing. While the themes are heavy, the book offers a roadmap for taking responsibility while still finding a reason to move forward.
