Thanks for keeping up on things here! Good to have this resource available after leaving reddit.
Sometimes the best blueprint for being a good dad is simply reflecting on your experiences, remembering the things you went through that really stuck with you the most and making that conscious effort to do better for your own child. The fact that you’re here asking how to do better speaks volumes. Show up for your kid and love them unconditionally.
Doing very well, thank you. Hope you’re doing good too! Have to admit, this was the first community I subbed to once I got here. Hope it keeps growing!
Really don’t have much more to add than what’s been provided already other than I also find it helpful in those moments to remember they they’re also still learning how to express a lot of really complicated emotions/feelings and just haven’t developed the capacity to communicate those in the way we might want them to. I know I’m not really offering any solutions but that’s my two cents.
Also, hello fellow dads!
