Bad Dads (DVD)

By George Foreman
Revealing some universal truths about the indelible impact a father has on his children, Bad Dads focuses on an unusual parenting program at a federal penitentiary. The program - called "H.O.P.E. For Life" - assists prison inmates who candidly admit to being poor fathers. The men are confronted by troubled teenagers who have been neglected, abandoned or abused by their own fathers. Dramatic role playing between these two groups brings to the surface the pain and anger each individual suffers, and helps the fathers to get to the root of their own poor parenting.
As the counseling sessions proceed, viewers learn that the men themselves were childhood victims of absent or abusive fathers. The men must allow themselves to reveal the anger of their own childhoods before they can sincerely apologize to their children - in writing and in person - and begin to regain their children's trust.
DVD format only. 45 minutes. 1996.
