The best piece of advice other fathers gave me before my firstborn came was that men often don’t bond with kids right away. The bond will grow as they develop personalities and learn skills from me. I didn’t believe it but it’s true Women bond by nurturing. Men bond by teaching.

I bonded pretty quick, but that was probably because my ex was useless so I got to do it all when I wasn't working. By the time she was walking we were connected at the hip.

Thanks. It's a pleasure doing it. I got to teach her her first word that wasn't mama and dada, when she was 2 she was counting up to 40 with me, and I'm her go to for bedtime stories even when her mother is in town. And she's a regular source of nightmare fuel for our comics.
