Author Aaron Sharp says every new dad is like Peter Parker, the mild-mannered character in the Marvel comic series who becomes Spider-Man. A pivotal moment in Peter’s story comes when he’s bitten by a radioactive spider, and his life changes forever. Only, he doesn’t immediately realize it.
For men, life changes in mysterious ways the first time his wife says, “We’re having a baby.” They have no idea the changes coming down the pike — which leaves many guys feeling unprepared to become a dad.
Aaron can relate. With four kids between the ages of three and nine, he calls himself a “four-time pregnancy survivor.” I’m talking with Aaron on Focus on the Family with Jim Daly about his book You Got This Dad: The Expectant Father’s Guide to Surviving Pregnancy. He’s sharing practical insights to help new dads get ready for this mysterious journey known as “fatherhood.” |
