I just became dad last month. So from more experienced fathers: What are best ways to express love to your family?

    • tell them you love them

    • be physical with your kid: wrestle, tickle, chase them, play hide and seek (then tickle them). It sounds like that might be a bit early for you - stick to hugs until they’re big enough to hold their head up.

    • shut up and listen. Whatever the duck they have to say, no matter how many times they say it, listen like it’s the first time and ask questions. Your kid will repeat themselves constantly. Enjoy it.

    • When they’re old enough, give them freedom. Be the parent that trusts them and sticks up for them when others don’t.
