I've gotta ask, though, at what point does this whole thing start being about me again? Before the kid came along, I could talk about myself for hours, and the wife seemed content to hear about my day or lunch. Or my job. Oh sure, there is something fulfilling about being a dad. But at what age do kids start to express an interest in hearing about how bad the traffic was this afternoon?
Two? Two and a half? I don't have to wait until kindergarten, do I?
Based on my own experience, dad stuff will become relevant once the children are in the workplace, so for this generation, mid-30's?
