Air Horns and F-Bombs: The Alexa Experiment
By Rick Young
Parenting isn’t for the faint of heart.
In Air Horns and F-Bombs, Rick Young delivers a raw, hilarious, and brutally honest account of what it means to parent with grit, intention, and absolutely zero patience for modern-day coddling. Through war stories from the trenches of fatherhood, he blends military-grade structure with kitchen-table wisdom to explore what actually works—and what definitely doesn’t—when raising resilient, accountable, and self-reliant kids.
This is not your typical parenting book. There are no gold stars, no participation trophies, and definitely no sugarcoating. Just unfiltered lessons, heartfelt failures, and moments that’ll make you laugh, cringe, and maybe even rethink your own playbook.
Whether you’re a new parent, a battle-hardened veteran, or just someone who enjoys the sound of an air horn at 6 a.m., Air Horns and F-Bombs is the permission slip to stop pretending and start parenting like you mean it.

Author Bio:
Calling myself an “author” might be a stretch—but I’m definitely a father, husband, pilot, and racer at heart. I grew up in Yreka, California (real Northern California), where life had a different rhythm. My dad was a truck driver, my mom worked a mix of jobs, and we were part of a tight-knit, working-class community.
Life wasn’t always easy by today’s standards, but it was honest. If you wanted something, you worked for it. No handouts, no participation trophies—only first place got the prize in little league. That kind of upbringing, surrounded by community values and grit, shaped how I see the world.
I never thought of myself as “old school,” but compared to what I see out there today, I wear that title proudly.
