Happy Father vs. Miserable Father - JEWISH INTIMACY (40)
We've learned about bringing precious neshamot to the world, but how do I know it will make the father happy in the end? The Ramban's Iggeret HaKodesh will provide us proofs from the Holy Torah that will show us who the happiest fathers are and whether we can become them. At the same time there are those fathers who create misery for themselves without realizing it, and being a father does not make things any better.
