[quote=Anonymous]The first thing you need to do is be honest with them without damaging their relationship with your ex. They can see through BS. Take responsibility. Sit down with them and say you are new to doing much more than showing up for stuff and you are sorry your patience isn't what it should be. You don't like to yell, you don't want to yell, and you need their input to make your time together more meaningful and like a father relationship should be. See if they have any feedback, see what they like to do. From there you say these are the things I'm going to change or I want to change about being a father and put real steps in place to get there. There are lots of good parenting books out there as one PP suggested.[/quote]
