Dads are definitely just as awesome as Moms are. Their parenting skills are much more suspect, however. It feels as though most Dads are entirely ill-suited to the job but are trying their best anyway.
Don’t know what we mean by that? Well, no worries- we’ve put together a list of examples for you! Here are 45 hilarious Dad parenting moments.
Dad’s With An Appreciation For Teachers
Many fathers have learned about homeschooling recently. This has caused the vast majority of them to feel as though teachers should earn a much higher salary.
When You Realize You Never Taught Your Child About Owls
Any parent has to pick and choose the lessons they teach their child. There are so many things out there that they may need to know about. Evidently, wood penguins and owls are two of them.
Many children figure out that you can stick signs on the backs of people. Very few of them decide to use this opportunity to teach others about space however.
Many parents spend countless moments worried about their child safety. Then, after a while, they don’t worry as much and life for them gets much better.
Being a father can be very busy and stressful. Don’t worry guys, the sweet relief of death will come at some point. You might even want to start planning for the type of coffin you will use.
One thing about children is they are really easy to scare. I don’t know why we spend so much time attempting to do something that is so simple to accomplish.
Kids Learn About Targetted Advertising So Quick These Days
This child has learned that if you want a puppy, you have to get your messaging where your parent is going to see it. Hopefully, the next headline is that this family did indeed get a new puppy.
Another interesting thing about children is that they are really easy to lie to. If they call you out on it later on in life, just tell them they will understand when they have children. They will understand too, they will understand that lying to children is super fun.
Dressing your child to go outside, especially in winter, is a little like putting together a huge puzzle. The only difference is, this huge puzzle will kick and scream at you.
If you can send your kids to the other room without worrying that they will somehow get themselves killed, congratulations, you have reached the second stage of parenting. It’s easier to sleep during this stage.
Sometimes parenting can just be about telling your child when they’ve done something wrong. Other times, it’s coming in with helpful advice seconds after it would have been useful.
Children Can Be Very Honest, Even When You Don’t Want Them To Be
Children are like little honesty machines, even when you don’t want them to be. If a child notices that your belly is a little bit bigger than others, you are going to hear about it.
It’s good to figure out what’s your kids are talking about before you give them any advice. For instance, the “penetrating gaze” in this Tweet was not quite what the father thought it was at first.
Dad’s can be sensitive too. They don’t like their role in raising children to be belittled so if you want to upset this father, just call him a babysitter.
The father in this story got things wrong. The child doesn’t have to listen to them for the rest of their life, only for the rest of his. That’s dark, man, that’s dark.
Look, just because their children doesn’t mean that they don’t deal with problems as well. Take the kid from this tweet, his bath was too wet, he couldn’t have just syrup for breakfast and his pesky sister keeps looking at him.
Sometimes Kids Change… Into Entirely Different Kids
Sometimes kids don’t understand the most basic of things. For instance, if their friend leaves and is replaced by a new kid who looks entirely different, sometimes they don’t understand that they are a different kid. Or maybe they just don’t care all that much.
Kids are growing up right now without having to use any of the flawed technology we had at their age. That means the landline ringing can sound a little like a fire alarm.
All fathers should be accepting of their sons, no matter what type of clothes they like to wear. If your child starts dressing like Johnny Depp, however, acceptance can be quite difficult.
Actor Ryan Reynolds knows all about being a father. Well, it seems he knows all about taking credit for being a father while somebody else does the work. Then again, maybe that is what being a father is all about.
Sometimes the best life advice for a child is to point out how frustrating and annoying having children can be. To do this, simply point out their own behavior to them.
Sometimes being a father requires being something of a cooking ninja. Sneaking in nutritious food can feel a little like trying to poison a king during medieval times or on a Game of Thrones episode.
Kids don’t know what they’re saying a lot of the time. Adults do this too, however. If your child lives in an apartment on the top floor, that can mean getting high to them.
Sometimes the harsh lesson of getting older is that everything is just a little bit worse. You can prove this to your child by showing them how their happiness has faded over time.
It’s Okay To Call Your Child A Jackass (Provided They Are Acting Like One)
Anyone who says that it’s not okay to refer to your 3-year-old as a miserable jackass has clearly never raised a miserable jackass of a 3-year-old before.
There comes a time in all father-son relationships when the father must explain to the son that when you get older, you can be thrown out of your bed and have to sleep on the couch.
As disgussed earlier, your child is under the belief that you grew up in the dark ages. Do not attempt to try and explain what technology you had as a child, they are unable to relate.
It is your job as a parent to help your child with their homework. If your child happens to be really annoying you at the time, however, you can do this poorly.
Teenagers are a massive problem in our society. If there was a way to just all have them frozen in carbonite like Han Solo until they reach a more reasonable age, that might be for the best.
Sometimes children aren’t able to determine what is a reasonable concern and what is an unreasonable concern. An army of teeth people being led by the tooth fairy is something we should all be concerned about, however.
One of the most important things about parenthood is that you have to feed your child. Failure to do so can have horrific consequences. They won’t eat just anything, though.
One thing that all children have in common is that they haven’t lived very long. They have had less days alive than adults have had. This means the difference between their best day ever and their worst day ever is pretty slim.
Children think that when they get old enough to move out, that will be the end of people telling them what they can do. Listen kid, you’ve got some harsh lessons to learn ahead of you.
Stephen Colbert makes a living cracking jokes. He’s also a father, however, so his jokes aren’t always good. Here he has a pitch for what the sequel to Frozen should have been called.
Oompa Loompas Should Be Real and They Should Raise My Kid For Me
When you’re a child, the Oompa Loompas from Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory seem fun. As you get older, they seem like they would be useful in helping to raise your child.
The Germans seem to have a good understanding of what children are. The father from this tweet learned where the term “toddler” came from and discovered it’s a very descriptive word.
Sometimes being a father means comically misunderstanding things to a large degree. Some of the time, even though you are entirely wrong, your weird understanding of things can seem correct.
Experts believe that positive reinforcement is a better motivator than negative reinforcement. If this kid learns that putting away the dishes means getting to play Xbox, everyone’s a winner.
