So my son learned what a dad joke is yesterday and now he's been making them all day. Most don't even make sense but he laughs so hard he falls over. Just told me 'Why did the chicken cross the road? Because it was a CHICKEN road!' and acted like he invented comedy. I've created a monster but honest...

Can't believe my little girl is already 6 months old. Time is flying and honestly some days feel like a blur but looking back at pictures from when she was born I can see how much she's grown and changed. She's laughing now, rolling around, almost sitting up on her own. Being a dad is scary and amaz...

Wife went to bed at 10 and I told myself I'd follow but somehow I'm still here at 1am watching overtime. Worth it though because that was an insane game.

Our son is 3 weeks old and literally only sleeps when me or my wife are holding him. The second we put him down he wakes up crying. We're exhausted and I'm wondering if we're doing something wrong or if this is just how it is for a while. We've tried the bassinet, the crib, he just doesn't like bein...

So my ex is supposed to pick up the kids every Friday at 6pm. For the last month she's been anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours late. Last week she didn't show until 8:30 and didn't even text. I had plans and my buddy was waiting on me. I've tried talking to her about it but she just says she's busy...

Kids have soccer games all afternoon so I've got like three hours to myself this morning and I have no idea what to do with it. Don't want to do house stuff, don't want to be productive. Just want to chill. Coffee and a show? Garage time? What do you guys do with your rare free time?

I know people hate on screen time but real talk - when I had the flu and could barely get out of bed, YouTube Kids kept my 4yo entertained for a whole day. No guilt. No apologies. Sometimes parenting is survival mode and that's okay. Obviously not every day but man did I need that this week.

We've been going to practice all season, he was super nervous about games. Second half of his second game and he just... buried it in the corner. The speed he ran at me after the whistle with the biggest smile on his face. I recorded it on my phone but honestly the memory of his reaction is worth mo...

My 15yo spends hours scrolling TikTok and now he can barely focus on homework. He's constantly on his phone even when we eat dinner. I've tried limiting it but he gets so angry and miserable that it creates more conflict than it's worth. Is this just how teenagers are now or should I be putting my f...

My 6yo has been home sick for 3 days with a stomach bug and I've basically let her watch unlimited iPad because at least she's resting and not running around making things worse. My wife thinks I'm setting a bad precedent but honestly when your kid is miserable I feel like a little extra screen time...

Just realized my daughter is 4 months old today and she laughed at me for the first time yesterday. Full genuine baby laugh and not just gas. I know it's a small thing but man it hits different when it's your own kid. She's also rolling over and grabbing things. Where did the time go? Feels like we ...

I started telling my daughter a joke at dinner and by the time I got to the setup she had already guessed the punchline, asked me a random question about her friend, and made me promise to buy her something at Target. Fatherhood has made me realize I have the attention span of a goldfish now too.

So I'm at the grocery store with my 6 month old, just a quick 5 minute trip. Of course he decides to have the most catastrophic diaper situation I've ever witnessed. It's up the back, down the legs, on my favorite shirt. I'm standing there covered in it trying to figure out how to get to the car wit...

Been working with my 8 year old on how to give a firm handshake. Not crushing the other guy's hand, but definitely not that limp fish thing either. He's naturally shy so we've been practicing at family gatherings. His uncle said he noticed the improvement last weekend and it made me proud as hell. A...

Just realized we had no TP this morning and immediately panicked. Then remembered 2020 and how insane everyone got. Anyway, I'm now that guy with 47 rolls in the garage. No regrets.
