    • Professional, detailed, well-organized look at how to secure your home and your family
Extremely well-organized and clearly written book about an overall strategy and mindset to protect your family from harm. As someone who has lived most of his life in places where safety was never really an issue, this book was an important eye-opener from me. As the author states, when looking at potential safety issues, it's important to look at your family's home through the eyes of someone who might want to break into that home. What I took away from it was that it's not necessary to be paranoid about your safety, but it's necessary to be prepared -- in a layered strategy and mindset -- just in case something were to happen. The author articulates very clearly how to make that preparation happen for your family's home. If you haven't thought of safety issues in a while, or if you would like a concise and professional run-down of how to make your home more secure, this is definitely the book for you! The book was enjoyable to read because it was well-written, and it was informative in that it concisely spelled out how to better protect your family and your home. ... show more

    • A Fresh Perspective on Safety!
As a single woman in my 20s, a homeowner, and a dog mom, I found The Secure Dad’s Guide to be informative, helpful, and relatable. No matter how many people reside in a home, the head of the household should be responsible for doing everything that he/she can to protect themselves and their home, and I personally felt that this book gave me the tools that I needed to do just that. I even discovered in reading it that I already have implemented several of the steps towards securing my home without even realizing it! I’m taking away a list of immediate improvements to further secure my home, as well as plans for the future to ensure that my dog and I remain safe (dogs often feel like children, after all!). I felt that this book did a fantastic job of expressing the seriousness of home/family safety while also bringing a sense of comfort to the reader using personal examples and anecdotes. The author stresses that home safety is not just an easily achievable goal, but a mindset to carry with you through life, and I think that more than anything is the start to feeling and becoming more safe in the world today. Whether you are a student living in an apartment, a single homeowner, or part of a larger family with children, I recommend that you read this book to learn more about how you can keep yourself and those you love safe. You might even learn, like I did, that you’re already on the right track! ... show more

    • Quick but powerful book to read
I initially was taken aback by how short the book was. But, while brief, it changed my perspective on home security as a dad. For example, I think differently about everything from installing dead bolts (look closely at the classification, upgrade the stock bolts) to thinking like a thief and assessing weak spots. The book is well worth it. ... show more

    • Increase your home security
I love how this book is written. It’s straight forward, conversational writing that gives you actionable advice the entire time. Everything is very easy to understand and anyone can do these things. This is for the everyday person who is looking to make their life a little more secure. I knew a lot of what’s talked about, so I enjoyed nodding along, but I also learned a great deal. Highly recommended. ... show more

    • Valuable, practical tips you can deploy today!
Review Image by Rob Disario Rob Disario
Even though I’ve been in law enforcement for over 17 years I still learned quite a bit from this book! Constantly in search of new tips and tricks to keep myself and others safe, I’m always on the lookout for new talent. Very practical, inexpensive ways to make minor adjustments to your home or mindset, the author has obviously gone to great lengths to do his research and cover all bases. Since reading this book I deployed several items already, and recommended several to residents in the community where I’m a police officer. I’m confident the author wouldn’t mind if I shared them! I especially enjoyed the senecio chapter at the end which painted a very vivid image as to why being prepared is so unbelievably important. Looking forward to more pulications from the author!! ... show more
