With useful tips on manners and socialising, mealtime strategies, sibling rivalry, and the trials and tribulations of discipline, not to mention playing your part during pregnancy and birth, Diary of a Desperate Dad is essential reading for all fathers seeking a humorous and intelligent take on what it means to be a modern dad.
