Why do I want to be a dad? It takes more than just being a father to be a dad. Know how many women have a biological clock? Well my male one has been ticking ever since I was a teenager.
I look forward to the day my kid falls down and breaks a bone and I am there to hold his hand at the hospital while it’s set. Being a dad isn’t just about the good moments, the first word, the A+ in school, learning to ride a bike, and graduation. It’s also about those less than stellar moments, staying up all night with your kid because he or she has a fever, being hated with the intensity of 1000 suns for something arbitrary and feeling all the emotion while not being able to do anything about it, the disappointing times when your child runs afoul of the law. I want all of that and more.
I want to be a full time dad through thick and thin, through the love and hate, the good times and bad. Don’t mistake me: there will probably be times where I truly will hate my children and question what type of demon-spawn I have birthed. Sure as I am writing this there have been times when I’ve felt that same way toward my own parents. I know that regardless of what issue lies in front of us I will love and adore my children always and hold them above anyone else. That is what my parents do and have done.
Even with all of the above listed it doesn’t quite present the whole picture of why I want to be a dad. For me it’s a feeling, a primal urge. I’ll never be able to fully verbalize it, just know that I want to raise & guide someone who I love with all of my existence. If I’m lucky enough it will be a couple of someones.
Being a dad may not be the most glamorous job but I‘m sure that it’s the most rewarding. Until that day comes I’ll do everything in my power to make sure I’m more than qualified to be an A+ dad. And when the time is right I’ll show my kids this article to let them know that being their dad is what I’ve always wanted.

That’s a nice sentiment Damien. It is always great when children feel wanted. It is even better when their personal story starts with “Your Mommy and Daddy wanted a little more than anything else in the world!”
The only piece of advice that I’d like to give you is make sure that your children see you being a good husband. They learn as much from the interaction between their parents as they do from their personal relationships with parents.
All the best Damien. You’ll do fine and when you do I hope to read about that as well.

Damien, I’m incredibly moved by your post. I literally just found out about this site tonight at a tweetup. I was actually talking with somebody about how you(a person) have no idea of what it’s like to be a dad before you are one. A person has no knowledge about how the experience will change them. But after reading you blog tonight I can tell you that you are ready even if you don’t know how it will change you. Good luck for when you are a dad.
