Being a Daddy to an adult baby or little boy is filled with joy. But it’s also filled with lessons that might not seem obvious at first. Your little guy will have things he really wants to say but will have difficulty saying them.
How do you deal with a request or confession? And how do you remember that things that might seem ‘small’ can actually be monumental to a boy who now feels he really is a toddler in his Daddy’s arms?
What does ‘being an AB’ mean to our broader culture? Can being an adult baby contribute to a kinder world?
I have been touched by the comments I receive on the Web site, especially over the past week – I’ve been moved almost to tears by your thanks and contributions. And I wanted to share a few comments from BabyJohnnie that express special ideas and thoughts about what it means to be an AB or ‘little’ as we face a brand new year.
As a Daddy, you should encourage and learn to appreciate the larger ‘family’ that a little guy will often bring to his relationship with you. They may be people he wants to have play dates with (in person, chatting on-line, or playing video games with maybe) but who he certainly should stay in touch with. Understanding your little guy’s chosen family is an important way to ensure he has a network of care and support.
Wow – just wow! Thank you for your response to my site – the last two days have seen the record for visits to the site broken twice. And while I never set out to set records, your contributions and interests mean a lot to me personally, and I hope we can continue to share time together in the year(s) ahead!
