Overview

Dad Mode: Accidentally Activated A Former Kid's Guide to Becoming the Grown-Up This is not a parenting manual. It won't tell you how to swaddle perfectly, optimise sleep schedules, or unlock the secrets of being ""ready."" Instead, Dad Mode: Accidentally Activated is a reflective, quietly funny account of what happens when the youngest child in the family suddenly finds himself responsible for one. Written from the perspective of a first-time father who never quite felt like a grown-up before fatherhood arrived, this book explores the subtle, often unspoken transitions that come with becoming a dad. The shift from being looked after to being depended on. From reacting to life to holding it steady. From drifting comfortably to realising that staying matters more than certainty. Through everyday moments-hospital rooms, financial anxiety, altered relationships, unexpected calm, and quiet epiphanies-the book captures fatherhood not as a dramatic transformation, but as a slow accumulation of responsibility, presence, and choice. With humour that disarms and introspection that lingers, this is a book for: New and soon-to-be fathers Anyone who has ever felt unprepared for adulthood Readers who prefer honesty over advice Because growing up doesn't always feel like progress. Sometimes it just feels like staying-and choosing not to leave. If you've ever wondered when you actually become the grown-up in the room, this book might feel uncomfortably familiar.
