The first night I brought my son home (his mother stayed in the hospital an extra day from complications) the weight that landed on my shoulders was immense. But there really isn't much to being a parent other than knowing the mechanics (how to change a diaper, etc), and knowing how to teach someone.
It's a learning experience, and for me the greatest thing that's happened in my life. I understand guys like Rob and Panda -- I was like them in my 20s, didn't like kids and didn't want to be around them. I don't know why that changed in me, but it did, and I'm glad for it. That doesn't mean I think everyone should be parents.
