Intro thoughts: Parenting is a multi-million-dollar industry, primarily because parenting is terrifying to all new or soon to be new parents. News flash, it is always terrifying, we just adapt to living with fear. I put out polls on all of my social media platforms including a men’s group I am apart of with a large number of members asking for the one thing they wish they knew before becoming fathers. Not a single person replied. I am not sure if no one knows anything or people don’t care, so instead of advice from the masses I researched the topic on the web. These are the top tips I found between articles and postings across the web weighed in by my own experiences.

Body talking Points:

• Communication – They understand more than you think, only 7% of communication is words
• Self Care is Important -Sleep – make sacrifices for you each other, one of you needs to sleep
• Music for the win
• Co-Parenting – just like different back grounds effect Christmas, it will surely effect raising a kid
• Your social circle will shrink, single friends will diminish because they can’t relate, not your fault
• You don’t need all that crap
• Don’t freak out if they develop at a different rate than other kids
• Helicopter parenting does not build healthy children
• Everyone is instantly and expert and will share their opinions on your parenting
• It will change you and your habits, preconceived notions on subjects and perspectives
