This book has some good information, but it seems like it is written for “dumb dads”. A lot of the suggestions seem a little too obvious, and at times it is condescending to mom as well.

One of my biggest pet peeves is injecting military speak into things that aren’t the military. While the author borderlines does this, it’s isn’t terribly over the top. I felt like a soon to be dad, not a soon to be Marine.

My other pet peeve is the “useless dad” point of view. This book doesn’t seem to talk down to me, which I’ve found from several other parenting books.
