Been remote for 2 years now and honestly it's been a disaster. Everyone thinks oh you're home so you can help with the kids more, but really I'm just doing both jobs at the same time. Kids interrupt Zoom calls, wife thinks I can drop everything to handle stuff, and I find myself working til 9pm just...

So my son literally wakes up and asks for Roblox before breakfast. I set a 1 hour limit on school days and he loses it every single time. Yesterday he was crying saying all his friends are playing and he's missing out. I don't want to be the bad guy but this is getting ridiculous. Anyone else dealin...

Seriously though, my kids think I'm Gordon Ramsay when I make sandwiches. Their bar is so low that slapping some peanut butter on bread makes me a culinary genius. Mom makes a 5 course meal and nobody notices. I make toast and suddenly I'm on the food network. Don't tell her.

First time taking the whole family camping. Rented a bigger tent, got a camping stove, life is good. My only worry is my 4yo and the whole "sleeping bag thing". She hates being confined. Anyone else deal with a kid that doesn't like sleeping bags? Maybe I just bring a blanket and pillow instead?

I said because they keep groaning so I know they're still alive. Ba dum tss. In all seriousness my 8 year old told me my jokes are 'peak dad humor' and I've never been more proud of anything in my life.

She asked me why I was so tired. I said daddy had a long day at work. She goes 'maybe you need more sleep daddy because you're always grumpy.' Out of the mouths of babes. She's not wrong but ouch. My wife hasn't stopped laughing.

Taking the kids up to the lake for two nights. First time camping for my youngest so naturally I'm overpacking everything. Borrowed a tent from my brother that's way bigger than we need but better safe than sorry I guess. Anyone have a go to camping meal that doesn't require a stove? Trying to keep ...

Hey guys, we've got a 12-team PPR league starting this weekend and 2 spots just opened up. $50 buy in, draft is Sunday at 7pm on Sleeper. Pretty chill group of guys, mostly just trash talk and some money on the line. Let me know if you're interested.

Got a 3 year old and a 5 year old, want to do more family hikes but last time the little one melted down halfway through a 2 mile trail. What's a good distance to start with? Should I be doing baby carriers, or is that more of a baby thing? Looking for trails near the Denver area that won't kill us.

I said why did the chicken go to school? To get a little brighter. He looked at me and said that's not even funny and my wife burst out laughing. I'm realizing my jokes are worse than I thought. The fact that they groan at me might actually be a sign of respect? Or I'm just delusional.

Been planning this for 2 years and my kids are old enough now to actually help. Got the lumber delivered yesterday and I'm starting with the platform this Saturday. Anyone else build one of these? I'm going for something simple, maybe 8x8 feet about 10 feet up in the oak tree. Any tips on making sur...

Okay so camping with a 4yo and a 7yo went way better than expected. I was terrified about bathrooms and bugs and them being bored but they were actually amazing. We hiked for like 45 minutes, caught some fish that we threw back, made s'mores, and they slept like absolute rocks. Only real issue was t...

Spent about 6 weekends building a simple treehouse in the big oak in our backyard. Got pallets from work, used old lumber, made it safe with railings. Cost me maybe 150 bucks total. My 6yo and 9yo helped with every step and learned so much about building. Now they spend hours up there reading, playi...

Been working from home for 2 years now and honestly it's a double edged sword. On one hand I get to see my kids before they leave for school and I'm there when they get home. On the other hand my boss seems to think remote means I'm available 24/7. Had a video call at 6:30pm last night while I was t...

Spent the last 6 months slowly converting the basement into a man cave. Got my old couch, pool table, bar setup with a mini fridge, and a decent TV on the wall. Last weekend I had the guys over for the game and it was awesome. My wife even seemed happy that I have a place to chill instead of taking ...
