My dog has never been hit aside from when we play, but I'm really afraid I'll pull back and just not be there for my daughter. I never notice when I get this way and I lose sleep over it.
you seem to be accutely aware of and concerned about your negative potentials. . .i know that i don't know you very well. . .but, i'm betting that you're going to be a pretty good dad. . .you'll make mistakes. . .we all do. . .the trick is recognizing them, taking responsibility for them and striving to do better in the future. . .as long as you love and care, you'll do a good job. . .we learn many things from our parents. . .i'll bet that one of the important things that you learned is to not make the same mistakes. . .
