Video is
emotionally charged documentary, which focuses on an unusual parenting
program at a federal penitentiary. Unlike most fathers, these "bad
dads" are serving time selling drug, but surprisingly, the mistakes they
made with their children are similar to those made by millions of fathers
everywhere. Bad Dads is a powerful and startling expose' of the indelible
impact a father has on his children. It is unflinching in its coverage of the
confrontation between prison inmates, who candidly admit to being "bad
dads", and at-risk teenagers who have been abandoned, abused, and
neglected by their own fathers. |
