Nah it's not. I can see how someone would want to normalise such a shitty event to deal with it but the fathers I know and myself have been much much more involved and supportive than our fathers were

Joke's on you : my father was so involved that he fainted in the delivery room, hit his head on the chair he had been waiting on and was evacuated by a nurse directly to neurology while my mom had her baby.

So... he wasn't really that supportive at that point, but he stayed the night at the hospital, at least.

I agree with @Ethernum cause I’m told (from my mum) that my dad fainted at the sight of blood… she’s an RN and knows what she’s talking about 👀
