    Editor’s Introduction

    THOSE OF YOU WHO READ Satan’s Advice to Young Lawyers know that I owe my success as an attorney to the advice I received from Satan. You also know that he has become my mentor and close confidant. I trust him implicitly.

    So, when I learned that my wife was pregnant with our first child, I naturally asked Satan if he had any parenting advice. I only expected a few anecdotes and aphorisms. Instead, he told me: This is a very important stage of your life. I will think on this question and provide you with a response when I am able.

    As the weeks passed and my wife’s belly grew larger, I wondered if he had forgotten or had found more important things to do. I should not have worried.

    About two weeks before our child was born, Satan arrived at my law office, posing as a client, which was his typical disguise. He brought with him a small manuscript bound neatly in a red clasp folder.

    Here, he said, thrusting the folder towards me.

    I reached out and took it. On the cover, written in thick black cursive, were the words: Advice for the New Parent.

    I put the folder down on my desk. Thank you, I said.

    He sat down in a leather chair, the cushions compressing under his weight. When you asked me for parenting advice, I was not sure how I was going to respond. It was, believe it or not, a novel inquiry.

    I will read it tonight.

    Good, he said. Be sure to share it with your wife. Parenting is much easier when it is a team effort.

    I nodded.

    Have you thought of a name for your boy?

    I was momentarily surprised he knew it was going to be a boy, but then remembered who was sitting in the chair across from me. No. I’d name him after you, but that might raise a few too many eyebrows.

    He laughed. I appreciate the sentiment, Aleister, but I believe you are correct.

    Maybe Henry or Joseph. We like traditional names.
