Book Reviews of The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the First Year
Book Review: Not for everyone... obviously
Summary: 1 Stars
I received this book as a gift. I've been a dad for over 22 years and didn't really need a book on being a new dad. That's not why I gave it one star. I figured I could give this book away to someone who could get some use out of it but I opened it up to a random page (this is the honest truth) and this is the first thing I read. (pg 140)
"Think like teens. Watch some porn videos together, grope each other in the back seat of a car, or have sex on the sink in the bathroom of a friend who invited you over for dinner."
The author was referring to the dad's "partner" and not his child but still I was shocked. This is not what I'd expect to read in a book about being a new dad. If this is the kind of advice the author gives I don't care to hear what else he has to say. I threw the book away. Remind me never to invite this guy over for dinner.
