Posted: January 25, 2008by Bruce Linton
1. Take time to reflect on how becoming (or being) a father is affecting you. Share your feelings with your partner and other new and expectant fathers.
2. Hold, rock, and talk to your newborn right from the birth.
3. Learn how to change nappies, give baths, feed your baby, and be part of his daily life.
4. Consider what career compromises you are willing to make to spend time with your child. This is an experiment that takes place over time.
5. Take what you like best about your father, teachers, colleagues, friends, and relatives to create your own identity as a dad. Anyone who has nurtured you can be a good role model.
