Hope you didn't think I was being hard on you. This case, having just become a father scares the shit out of me!
no, nothing hard at all. It's a tough subject to talk about without it coming over that way, too. Anything like me or Bonzo carries an undercurrent of 'hahaha I'm glad it's happened', and anything like what you and Shanshee says has an undercurrent of 'you heartless swine'.
But I think we're all bright enough to realise none of us intend any of those implications, quite the opposite.
Oh, and on the being a dad thing; good thing you're scared of parenthood! If you weren't then you're probably not taking it seriously enough! But you'll be fine matey. It's that same fear that means you'll focus and you won't drop the ball. And when you're thinking that you're being dreadful at it, just remember that every other parent thinks that about themselves too.
