✏ Rules

  1. DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
  2. No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
  3. No antinatalism struggle sessions

This Father's Day all I wanna do is shoutout to all the dads in Gaza who will never be able to hug their kid ever again, and to the kids who will never be able to hug their dad ever again, because the Genocidal Entity murdered them.

I can’t believe another week has passed by. My kid has reached the developmental milestone of being able to bring me a towel to the shower after I forgot one. This weekend he saw a horse up close for the first time and was like, “horses are crazy” guess they are bigger than he ever imagined.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads. I got my husband some books that are dad related because he once mentioned most of the books we have mention mom and not dad.

Father's day down here isn't until September, but I hope all the fathers in specific parts of the northern hemisphere enjoy themselves.

It's interesting seeing kids project gender roles onto things. I gave my boy two hotwheels busses last night and the smaller one became mummy bus and the big one was daddy bus. They can't answer why one is the mummy bus and one is the daddy bus, but I'm interested in having that conversation with them when they're ready.

Happy father's day to those that celebrate!

This is my first one where the kid is old enough to really get it so i'm excited for them to awaken

Busy weekend. Kiddo's "graduation" from daycare, birthday parties, fathers day, and the usual weekend tasks. One day I'll no longer be tired.

One day I'll no longer be tired.

This is what you'll look like on that day: skeleton-wave

Lol it's so true.

The cold that's worked through my family took my partner out of commission today, so I'm solo parenting Father's day lol.

Not the end of the world, we're doing a family beach vacation at the end of the week, so maybe we'll celebrate then instead (I'll at least celebrate not having to work/getting out of town)
