«Meheks olemise tähtsaim missioon ühiskonnas on olla otsustav ja vastutav. Mehe isaks olemise missioon on olla vastutav oma tulevase lapse kvaliteedi eest juba enne lapse sigitamist ja kanda seda kõrge eani. See on jutt isaduse algusest mehes. Lapsele on iga eluhetk kasvamine. Isale on needsamad hetked koos lapsega tema kasvatamine.» Tõnu Ots, psühholoog
«Lapse loomulik soov on vanematele rõõmu valmistada, kõige terasemalt jälgibki laps oma vanemate meeleolu ja tundeid. See on kõige tähtsam õppevahend arenevale isiksusele.» Andres Sild, psühhoterapeut
There are things in this book that make it worth reading. Especially some co-writers. But the storyteller character is so disgusting that it is very difficult reading. I found it full of gender insulting comments and also ”rainbow people” comments that I don't like and don't support. The author or storyteller is a very small person and it is sad that this book is an official gift for new fathers.
The free book for future fathers found in most Estonian baby hospitals and shops. It's written humorously in narrative form, tackling the journey of becoming a father. Every year there is a new edition with a new cover and new baby-products advertised within. Funnily enough, after reading it and becoming a father, I was invited to be on a cover of the freshest edition myself.
