Every Father Pays It. Nobody Ever Refunds It.
Every father pays it: an invisible tax collected in sleep, money, dignity, physical comfort, social life, and time, that never comes back the way a normal tax return does. It comes back eventually — just not to you. It comes back through your kids.
The funniest book in the series, built around P.A.I.D. — Parenthood's Assorted Involuntary Deductions — twelve real, lived "brackets" of the tax, followed by an honest audit of where it all actually goes, and a genuine answer to the question underneath the whole book: what if the exhaustion was never a sign you were doing it wrong?
