Dad at 14
by
J.J. Pierre Gagnon
Edwin Barker-Ouellet was a normal teenager. Sure, he had problems like everyone else, but on the whole, his life was pretty ordinary. He went to the movies with friends, played hockey on Friday nights, and even had a girlfriend. But all of that changes when he meets Joshua—his son. When Joshua’s mother abandons him a week after giving birth, Edwin is left with a choice: put the baby up for adoption or become a single father. Without hesitation, Edwin decides to raise Joshua himself and embarks on a journey he never could have imagined. Juggling childcare, homework, relationships, and hockey practice, Edwin quickly discovers that the joy of parenthood comes with a cost. Adding to his stress is the scrutiny he faces from his peers and family members. He realizes that a single mistake can have serious consequences. And yet, Joshua’s appearance in his life may be the push he and his family need to come together and focus on what really matters.
J. J. Pierre Gagnon was inspired to write Dad at 14 by his own journey as a father. He currently lives in Brampton, Ontario, with his wife and daughter and enjoys gardening during his free time. For more information you can visit www.jjpierregagnon.com
