] One day you look at your baby and realize that the
] intense passion you felt just the day before has been
] replaced by a numb, hollow feeling. Do you know this
] child? Do you care? You'll feel like bagging this whole
] dad thing and starting a new life somewhere else. Chances
] are the very next thing you'll feel is incredible guilt.
] After all, if you aren't head over heels in love with
] your child 100 percent of the time, you're not a good
] father, right? Wrong. Ambivalence is a normal part of
] being a dad, and you're going to have the same feeling
] dozens of times over the next 50 years. So get used to
] it.

um, yeah.
