Many new fathers, some of the best in the world, feel tremendous pressure and guilt if they don’t bond with their child immediately upon birth. Men bond by teaching and being taught. When your child is old enough to learn from you, that bond will form. Be present when it comes.

Absolutely. Once men can teach, the bond usually forms extremely quickly. Interestingly this is also the issue with “mansplaining.” Men bond by teaching and being taught. Attempting to explain is a show of respect and desire for connection. Huge missed opportunity when rejected.
