Throughout his child’s life, the two words every father needs to remember are “be there”, and the time to begin is now,
The best start any dad can give his child in life is to establish a deep bond with them from the very beginning. Having a child is a game changer – the disruption of almost every aspect of your life is enormous. As comedian, actor and screenwriter Ray Romano said, “Having children is like living in a frat house – nobody sleeps, everything’s broken, and there’s a lot of throwing up.” But there is also no greater joy and inspiration than having a child. As a dad, you will be the most important and influential man in your children’s lives. The relationship you have with them will impact their lives deeply and forever.
The process of bonding with a child in the early days of their life can be harder for a dad than for a mom. Nine months of carrying her growing child inside her, the hormones that flood her with a sense of love and connectedness, the intimacy of breastfeeding and physical nurture after birth all work together to forge a deep bond.
