He wanted to make some liquid assets for his kids college fund. My 8 year old didn't get it but my wife gave me that look.

So I thought working from home would be perfect. I'd be around the kids more, less commute, seemed like a win. But now my boss expects me to answer emails at 9pm and my 4 year old thinks my office door being closed means I'm available to play. My wife is frustrated because she thinks I'm just sittin...

Had tickets to take my oldest to the baseball game this weekend. Three days before and boom, he comes down with something. My wife is sick too. Looks like I'm home with a sick kid while everyone else is out having fun. Who else has had their weekend plans decimated by the kid plague?

He's 7 and I've been letting him win sometimes but this time it was legit. He picked the right track, used power ups at exactly the right moment, and crossed the finish line first. I was actually shocked. Made him play again immediately but he didn't win the second round so my pride is still intact ...

His grades were pretty rough so I said 'These test scores are so low they need their own zipcode.' He did not laugh. My wife laughed though which is basically the same thing.

Looking to upgrade from my sad little hibachi thing. Want something I can throw some burgers and dogs on for the fam without breaking the bank. Had a Weber before and loved it but those are getting pricey. Any recommendations? Also do you guys grill year round or just summer?

I swear my 7yo goes through earbuds like they're going out of style. Just found the third pair this month tangled up in his backpack with the cord all frayed. At this point I'm just buying the cheap walmart ones. Wife thinks I should get him better ones to teach him respect but like... he's 7. Anyon...

I know it's not even close to Father's Day yet but she insisted on doing it today. She and mom made scrambled eggs (a little runny but I ate every bite), toast with butter and jam, and some fruit. She drew me a card that says I'm the best dad in the galaxy and has like 50 hearts on it. She's 5 and I...

We had our baby 5 days ago and my wife wants to exclusively breastfeed. I get it but she's been in so much pain and I feel like supplementing with formula would help her. She gets upset whenever I bring it up like I'm not supporting her. How do we navigate this? Any dads been through the same thing?

So I was just sitting at my desk working and suddenly my heart starts racing, I feel like I can't breathe, and my hands got all tingly. It lasted maybe 10 minutes but felt like an hour. I've had anxiety before but never anything like this. Should I go to the doctor or is this normal? Trying not to f...

She was scared of the deep end at the pool so I spent like an hour just being patient with her, showing her I had her back, no pressure. By the end she jumped in the deep end and swam to me. When we got out she said "You're my hero Dad." Still getting emotional thinking about it. That's the win righ...

Had my 9 year old out in the garage helping me change the oil and a spark plug. He asked good questions, actually paid attention to what I was showing him, and seemed genuinely interested. When we fired it up and it ran smooth he looked at me like we just accomplished something huge. In a way we did...

My 7 year old scored his first goal ever in soccer today. He's been struggling all season, getting discouraged, talking about quitting. Then boom, he gets it past the goalie and the whole team is losing their minds. I've never seen him smile that big. Worth every Saturday morning of driving him to p...

She's 15 and wants to do things I'm not comfortable with, going places with boys I don't know, staying out later, the usual stuff. I'm trying to lead with love but also with conviction about what's right. My pastor said I need to be firm but not harsh, set boundaries but explain why we have them fro...

Wanted to share this because I know a lot of guys on here are going through separation or divorce. I spent 8 years being someone I wasn't. Spent 8 years managing someone else's emotions and problems. When we split it sucked, custody battles sucked, money got tight. But man, the last 2 years have bee...
