[quote=Anonymous]Sadly OP you can't make him want to spend more time with her. Don't give up though, she's still really young and age 3-4 it gets MUCH easier for Dads to bond. The infant/toddler stage can be tough for some guys with zero kid experience and not naturally paternally inclined (my DH included). Our DD is now 5 and they are best buddies. Before age 4 she was attached to me at the hip. My inlaws were horrible roll models for DH parenting wise (no better grandparent wise). DH was awesome when she was an infant/toddler, but their real bonding didn't happen until she was between the ages of 3 and 4. [/quote]
