Not sure if you clicked through, but it looks like NYT lifted almost the entire piece from PsychCentral. Maybe there is a relationship there.
In any event, I liked the advice they give. I don't like the negative press of how men behave - it is a stereotype. That being said, there is some truth to the stereotype. We men can fall into patterns that are in our genetic makeup that actually do make us look like what they portray on TV. I feel myself falling into these patterns from time to time and it can be a chore to stay away from them.
That being said, I like reading these pieces to remind myself of what is right and what is wrong in being a father. We each have to define for ourselves what that is, but having more information to help us along in making those decisions is a good thing.
