11,301 | daddit | awesome! total dad engineering!!!!! |
11,302 | daddit | Put him on hoverboard next |
11,303 | daddit | they see me rolling, they hating |
11,304 | daddit | Bro kids will do that to you... I used to think I was hard growing up from my neighborhood in LA. Now I have twins (b/g) and shit like this makes me cry on the daily. Wouldn’t change it for the world |
11,305 | daddit | Really happy you wrote this. I'm in my late 30's and just had my first. I thought I was having issues with low T and was worried a bit. |
11,306 | daddit | Everyone's saying how they were hard as a rock and now balling at the thought of their children. In my shoes, I was already a crier at movies. And now? ... Wow ... everything is just 200% more emotional. I don't know how I'll manage sitting through my daughter's first graduation, or her wedding... I'll be a complete mess. |
11,307 | daddit | I'm hoping this is normal because I've experienced the same thing. You just can't appreciate the love parents have for their child until you have one of your own. |
11,308 | daddit | Dude. I was literally coming here to say that. My daughter is 7 months old and this punched me right In the feels. Okay shit. |
11,309 | daddit | I have grown empathy x100 I can’t hear about child abuse anymore without feeling it in my gut. I used to be scared I was a psychopath *shakes head* |
11,310 | daddit | Same here, it used to take so much to make me cry. Now that I have a daughter I think I cry at things like this as easily as my wife does. Must be a hormone change after having a kid, but I kind of like this new more emotionally open side of me. |
11,311 | daddit | It’s cause we don’t want to see any of them go through any kind of hardship, ever. The first time another kid makes my kids cry, they’re gonna make me cry too. |
11,312 | daddit | I probably cried twice in about a decade pre kids. I can now pretty much cry on command, anything bad happening to kids in movies/books/video games destroys me these days. It must be a thing haha. |
11,313 | daddit | Dude. I cried when watching Homeward Bound at the part where the little girl gets lost in the woods. |
11,314 | daddit | Haha tell me about it. First few months I used to just stare at my baby daughter and tear up. I was like.... Come on you used to be tough . It passes eventually when your testosterone returns. |
11,315 | daddit | It's all a matter of perspective. We don't have to have children nowadays, the species can survive, but once you get to help create a life it suddenly roots you in the universe and means you can stop, look, and appreciate the beauty of life. |
11,316 | daddit | This is me 100%. My son has done so much for me mentally and emotionally that he’ll never understand. I’m a cry baby now and I don’t care. |
11,317 | daddit | Oh I totally get you. Covid has forced me to be away from my son for a lot longer than my wife and I initially planned and I can literally cry by just seeing a baby |
11,318 | daddit | I think it's that we gain empathy we didn't have before. You don't realize it was missing until it's suddenly there. Raising a little one makes us think of another person, about their future, their growth, their feelings. That's something we may not have done to the same amount before, and that practice with someone you would do anything for helps extend that empathy to others too. |
11,319 | daddit | You wrote exactly what I was going to say. Daughters make us so soft for tears, but so damn protective too! |
11,320 | daddit | It's like this is r/nextfuckinglevel |
11,321 | daddit | How else do you think kids are made? |
11,322 | daddit | Looks like a Bumbo seat sitting on a custom platform with wheels. |
11,323 | daddit | I had help making that ;) the chair on the other hand I did myself |
11,324 | daddit | Yeh third wheel on the back. |
11,325 | daddit | A 3rd caster wheel on the backside? |
11,326 | daddit | Bumboos (the seat part) are pretty wide at the base. Really hard to tip by design. |
11,327 | daddit | Haha yeh it's already a thing. There is a community of people who have make these for their kids, I put my own touch on this one but there are plenty of different types out there. One dad made one out of timber which looked awesome. |
11,328 | daddit | I’m not sure you can patent an already (bumbo seat) object but it would be cool if OP could get a billion for their ingenuity Great job OP! Super clever also baby is precious! |
11,329 | daddit | Yeah, this is a funny little gap. In the UK at least, you can't access the wheelchair service until you've outgrown pushchairs (size and/or age appropriateness) This is amazing, I've worked with lots of kids who have fairly significant mobility problems but are cognitively very able, so they get frustrated at not being able to crawl, cruise or walk. |
11,330 | daddit | Sacral agenesis |
11,331 | daddit | This is gold! I've been trying to think of ways to do this cheaply and this may work |
11,332 | daddit | Can do, I've got to replace the base cause it didn't last long under her weight but I'll do that after it's done. |
11,333 | daddit | We can get one for free, my daughter is to small though. This bumbo seat is the smallest you can get. Look up Bella's bumpas, they've been making similar chairs which are donated to kids who need them. |
11,334 | daddit | Lol she may or may not have scream cried the first few times we sat her in it... |
11,335 | daddit | Yeh we have the next size up already, will see how she grows. |
11,336 | daddit | Have you looked into something like this? I know my daughters physio wasn't super impressed I made this but I wanted her to have some independence. |
11,337 | daddit | how is touching the wheels different than touching the floor when babies crawl? Im not sure there’s a world market for infant wheelchairs tho |
11,338 | daddit | All good, happy to answer. She's was born with sacral agenesis, her spine finishes at L4. She has no muscle below her knees and limited muscle strength in her thighs. Upper body is fine with no issues. This is a super rare condition and my daughter doesn't even have it that bad, some kids have it way worse. |
11,339 | daddit | Yeh put it all together myself |
11,340 | daddit | She's 11 months old, she's just a tiny baby |
11,341 | daddit | Parenthood unlocks a lot of empathy for the best reasons. Sharing and expressing emotions in front of your kids is very healthy. I never want to be like my parents (aka dad) where crying was for babies or looked down upon as being "girly"; f*ck that nonsense |
11,342 | daddit | Same here. I can’t even watch movies or shows that have bad things happening to kids. Even bullying, or sad kids on screen. |
11,343 | daddit | Never! You're being a normal human finally by expressing and experiencing emotions |
11,344 | daddit | This is me 100 percent. |
11,345 | daddit | It is totally normal. I hardly ever ever cried, but since I'm a dad I'm welling watching videos like this. And any movie where a kid is having a hard time, I just can't watch it |
11,346 | daddit | Shut it down, folks. Dad joke of the year has just been won. |
11,347 | daddit | When a man and a woman are in love... |
11,348 | daddit | I think the child’s mother may have contributed (a little) |
11,349 | daddit | I can only speak from my own experience but I think a woman was involved here. |
11,350 | daddit | Dude...that was good. |
11,351 | daddit | I mean, maybe the post man did it, we never know... |
11,352 | daddit | well sometimes the mailman and your wife .... |
11,353 | daddit | OMG that was perfect |
11,354 | daddit | That's right, I made this one but if anyone interested you can donate to a company that make them. The company is called Bella's bumps. They use different chairs to the one i used cause by daughter is so tiny |
11,355 | daddit | That is correct |
11,356 | daddit | Good call. Have fun! |
11,357 | daddit | Yeah, but maybe further back then the plexi sheet goes. Babies are pretty top heavy. |
11,358 | daddit | And the perfect size for a roomba... I would imagine... |
11,359 | daddit | Well that's great to hear! Good work dude |
11,360 | daddit | Can you link the timber one? |
11,361 | daddit | Glad I could help. Add a FPV camera and you can have her tour the whole house. |
11,362 | daddit | Great to hear she has such a great support system |
11,363 | daddit | I swear they always do when it’s the stuff that would really benefit them. I wonder if they feel the nervous mood from us! She’s a real cutie btw |
11,364 | daddit | Very cool! Well done |
11,365 | daddit | 100% agree brotha. It’s alright to show emotion to kids and if anything it helps them mature. At the end of the day people like you that have these conversations are guiding our future generations. Cheers |
11,366 | daddit | By the same token, I’ve found that it unlocks new vulnerabilities, such as when you as the parent have to stand by and be there for your kid while they are in discomfort or pain. It’s fucking torture (or it feels like it). |
11,367 | daddit | Same dude. My wife wanted to rewatch criminal minds . Watched a few episodes and i was an anxious mess. |
11,368 | daddit | PACK IT UP. We’re done here |
11,369 | daddit | Or bored, or had some drinks, or are watching "Love,. Actually"... |
11,370 | daddit | We found the spy! |
11,371 | daddit | Let's not jump to conclusions |
11,372 | daddit | Does it has a wheel behind the big wheels. Otherwise it looks like it can tip over backwards |
11,373 | daddit | Absolutely. I fully intend to stop the toxic macho culture I had in my childhood. My first son is just over 2 and I love seeing his emotions. I have another boy on the way and will be doing the same with him. Cheers! |
11,374 | daddit | I vividly remember times when I just wanted to be held by my mom. I always hope my boys will feel that for me and their mom. |
11,375 | daddit | Man I had to put parental guidelines on cuz my wife was crying so badly after watching a really bad episode.. it hit me hard so we stopped watching those lol |
11,376 | daddit | The amount of anxiety I've felt since my son was born was something I wasn't really prepared for either, I grew up in a house where child abuse took place for about 12 years, mainly aimed at my sister but still affecting me as well. I was certain I had dealt with everything from my past but seeing my son and feeling those insanely protective instincts kick in was a ride for sure... From day 1 I was afraid of every future environment I can't secure for him, like kindergarten, dreading the day he'd start there even when he was just weeks old. It's gotten better since I've been able to talk to my wife about it and also talking to our childcare contact (standard contact here in Sweden) about my fears etc,but damn do I still get anxious as I see him grow up and knowing what's out there in the world. |
11,377 | daddit | This is it, this is what this subreddit is all about. |
11,378 | daddit | Great movie. |
11,379 | daddit | But I already have this mat I've been working on... |
11,380 | daddit | There is another wheel at the back to stop it tipping over |
11,381 | daddit | Congrats man!!! I’m proud to see us dads kicking the old ways |
11,382 | daddit | Same. Oh kids in this episode? Skip. Oh, those kids become orphans after their parents are brutally murdered? SKIP... |
11,383 | daddit | Also, hi fellow twin dad (b/b) lol |
11,384 | daddit | I hear ya man. I grew up in a single parent home until I was 14 when my mom suddenly died. Thankfully after cursing at my father he realized the pain he had caused and we were able to build a relationship for a few months before she died. I fear everyday I’ll die and my boys and wife will be alone (we do have life insurance on both of us). My wife is a stay at home mom so it would turn their worlds upside down in multiple areas of life. |
11,385 | daddit | good i didnt see it in the video. and it looks like the center of gravity is very close to the big wheels. |
11,386 | daddit | Lmfao this describes us. Now we just watch survivor and the office |
11,387 | daddit | Oh shit hi! Haha love finding more twin dads! Drink a beer for me |
11,388 | daddit | You just can’t worry about that thing. It fucking sucks and if you randomly die yeah it’s gonna be hard. But why worry about something you can’t change? Just enjoy the moment as you can my friend |
11,389 | daddit | A fun move is closing their bedroom door as they’re still asking questions. |
11,390 | daddit | Why are you telling me now about your day?!! I've just tucked you into bed!! |
11,391 | daddit | Memorize this phrase: "That's a great question, let's talk about it tomorrow." |
11,392 | daddit | "It's time for bed" "No" "That wasn't a question..." (gets ready for an hour long struggle) |
11,393 | daddit | My kid is only 20 months old. I can see my future and I'm not sure I'm ready. |
11,394 | daddit | Bedtime, it is. Done, we are. Sweet, the release of death is. |
11,395 | daddit | This meme pops up in my various feeds fairly regularly, but man is it just right on the money everytime. It never fails to make me laugh either |
11,396 | daddit | LOL, my daughter and I could lay with each other and talk until the sun comes up. I fall asleep while she’s talking all the time! |
11,397 | daddit | One time my kid woke up from his nightly slumber to ask me if robots eat hot dogs. Another time i was waiting for him to poop in the public gym. He asked me to come in the stall so he could ask me all sorts of questions about dragonflies. What do they eat, what do they do, when they eat other bugs do they get bigger, do they eat big bugs, etc. he had so many questions about dragonflies that we missed most of the toddler soccer class he was supposed to be participating in. |
11,398 | daddit | My kid had the speech delay. He is better now. And so I start to understand Yoda. |
11,399 | daddit | My kids go directly to…am I going to die? Mom, you’re old…you’re going to die soon. I don’t want to die. Why do people die? And so on. |
11,400 | daddit | I'm absolutely looking forward to this, my kid is 4 and doesn't ask me questions, she just wants to tell me everything. |
