10+ Dads That Aren’t Afraid to Break Stereotypes for Love

Being a parent is one of the most challenging jobs in the world, but it’s also one of the most rewarding. To understand a child’s behavior, what they want, and how to make them happy, you must sometimes think like a kid. There’s nothing a parent wouldn’t do to put a smile on their child’s face.

1. “Single dad date at the zoo today, I’m on the left.”

2. “Getting better! Not bad for a dad.”

3. “A tea party with my princess”

4. “In January, I got serious about weight loss, partly motivated by my inability to play with my daughter. I have lost 90 pounds so far. Only 110 more to go.”

5. “You’ve got to build that work ethic while they’re young.”

6. “Adding to the matching outfit posts with mini-me!”

7. “My daughter has an irrational fear of hair clips, but she said she wouldn’t be scared if I did it first. So here we are.”

8. “Dressed my 2-week-old son as ’Baby Yoda.’”

9. “Props to my little girl for making me fabulous.”

10. “My son and me as Lego Batman and Lego Alfred”

11. “My son and I went kayaking for the first time on Saturday. He worked hard since July for this moment.”

12. “Fresh from work and off to the park. Sometimes it can be difficult to go, but we grind just for them. We should never forget the most important time spent with them.”

13. “Getting ready to sing ’Purple Rain’”

14. “These little nuggets are a year old now. This was the fastest and slowest year of my life.”

15. “I’ve had difficulty bonding with and getting my daughter to smile lately. So I finally agreed to let her give me a makeover, and her smile says it all.”

Bonus: Teachers can also break stereotypes.

16. “My son came home with a sticker, reminding us that Picture Day was the next day.”
