You will get stressed, maybe even angry. It's ok. Take a deep breath and walk away for a moment.

There doesn't seem to be much emotional support for men, but sometimes it's needed. Talk to someone, anyone, even talking to random people on the internet can help.

Enjoy the ride, you're in for a great adventure, and while it doesn't feel like it at the time, they really do grow up quick.
