A must-read for all new parents, Love, Dad explores what it means to be a father in the twenty-first century.

This memoir openly shares how Laurie strives to overcome challenges &– from breaking generational cycles to maintaining joy in work and parenthood &– and how others fresh to parenting can learn from this authentic story of a new dad and his family.
