    Go to the library and look at books about child rearing. See which ones are interesting. Borrow some, read them. And if you find one you particularly like, go out and buy a copy?

    I raised 4 girls as a single dad. I found that most services and programs for single mothers were NOT available to me, either because of my income, or just simply because I was a man, and NOT female. Even getting baby sitters was problematic. The so-called professionals, and available publications were of no help whatsoever, and usually had wrong ideas and information. Try to find other single dads and net-work. You will do better this way than any other. The result is that most of the time, men make MUCH better parents than women. Utilize shared information from MEN, rather than self appointed experts and women. It will serve you better.

    Probably. But as a father of a little girl, I'd just like to throw you the advice to plan every aspect of your life around places that have 'family' bathrooms. For a man with a little girl, those things are like a gift from god.
