New dad

[Anonymous No.19932765]

I'll be having my first child this year and as a new father, what books should I read. I mean more for the practical side of the pregnancy/birth/looking after a baby.

I'm fairly confident in my moral compass/virtues as far as the kind of father I hope to be, but if you have ideas to that end I'd be interested to hear them.

Whatever you do, if it's a boy, DO NOT HAVE HIM CIRCUMCISED. Keep his foreskin intact.

He definitely should. If we ever start gassing again it will be possible to catch two birds with one stone, kikes and burgers. Easier than checking with an ultrasound if they have cheddar in their brain

If you think about it, babies tell you how fucking warped and horrifying the female mind is. Women think babies are cute. This is why when women who did not want babies on the grounds of their sexual and social freedom started getting dogs, new breeds were engineered to look neotenic, with similar characteristics to human babies. And those horrific pig dogs were made to satisfy the female mind's need for a neotenic dog-baby. Women think those horrible creatures are cute. Just think about it. Dogs like most animals are beautiful as they were in the wild but women needed to warp them into those horrifying abominations, because women are so alien that they aren't even in touch with nature itself. It's really disgusting.
