You go, Dad! It's not always easy, but it's always worth it.
6,002
daddit
You made me tear up reading this, you are a great man and sound like an amazing dad!
6,003
daddit
Oh shit, you just hit my tear ducks man. Stop that!

More parents should inspect their kids’ phones. So much evil out there.

My stepdaughter (4y/o) told me “you’re the best” last night when I said goodnight and I went and cried in the kitchen

My wife has been through a similar situation as your little warrior. Her stepdad was her real dad. In fact, better than that, he was Daddy. That’s an even higher level position. When we got married, her Daddy walked her down the isle to me. Her bio dad (AKA sperm donor) didn’t get the honor of walking her down the isle. You have this to look forward to brother. You did it. Well done. One day she will brag to her husband about how awesome you are to her. When her daddy passed away this last January, it was a terrible day. Not going to lie. However, his legacy lives on and our little girls know how great of a step dad he was. You also have this to look forward to. I’ll say it again, well done. Also, I say, thank you.

Who the fuck is cutting onions at midnight? I'm trying to read this post and I can't see a fucking thing with my eyes all teary and shit. Damn.

Dude good on you. I teared up reading this. Good for you my dude, you've got a great family!

Had a similar moment the other day. My oldest is almost 16, and his bio dad moved out of state years ago. Well, he's been wanting to get a job so I helped him go through applying online. He had to setup an account, and for the security question, he picked the "Fathers middle name" one. He still has somewhat of a relationship with his bio dad, so you can imagine my excitement when he put my middle name down for the answer.

Hell yeah, this is so great to hear. The world needs more dads and stepdads like you.
6,012

Your daughters are very lucky to have you as their dad! Good work man

I’m not even a mother but damn I felt that
6,016
daddit
this actually made me cry. coming from a single parent home, where it's just me, my mom, and my brother (which is now 35 and I'm 19) I never really had anyone to call Dad. my brother is more of a brother than a father figure despite the 16 year age gap, sometimes I feel like I'm older than him with how much of a teenager he is. my dad was an alcoholic and realized he didn't want to be in my life when I was 2. he even decided to get blackout drunk at my 1st birthday party. he was never abusive, just disrespectful and an asshole. although, because of this happening, I've came to the conclusion that I'd be a terrible person if he even kept in contact with me and that I am going to learn all I can on how to be a great father to my eventual children. this was the first post I read on this subreddit and I just want to say you are a perfect example!
6,017
daddit
This really touched me on a deeper level. My dad has always been amazing but my mom not so much. They divorced when I was 4 and my relationship with my mom deteriorated. My dad remarried and my step mom talks to me about the problems I have with my mom and she understands all the problems I have. To me she has been more of a mother figure to me than my mom ever could be. All of these stories exist about the father role working this way. But the mother role can be just the same.
6,018
daddit
Brb, gonna go hug my dad
6,019
daddit
Oh man this is beautiful. Everything, from choosing not to battle for child support to stopping the drive to give her your full attention. You are a great dad. Way to put her needs above the desire I’m sure you have to put bio dad in his place. You’ve earned the “daddy” title.
6,020
daddit
Mad respect bro. Good for you. Keep being awesome
6,021
daddit
Man this really resonates with me. I've been in my stepdaughters life since she was 3. Her dad has always lived states away and barely sees her. I've told my wife since early on in the relationship that I'm waiting for her to come to the realization of how worthless her dad is. This is so similar to how we are, she calls me by first name and all that. Kudos dude, you're every bit her father through your actions, not just in name.
6,022

I’m 13 and not even allowed near Snapchat lol, great daddo work

Sitting here picking up my kids from school. Figured I would hit the Reddit while waiting in the parking lot. Freaking onions hiding in the back seat or something. Can’t figure out this strange water appearing around my eyes. Keep on, keeping on fellow dad.
6,024
daddit
Super late to the party, but crying doesn’t make you a bitch, crying makes you a bitch if you are doing it over something immature or insignificant selfish. So you cried like a real manly man, a real Ron Swanson, a badass mother fucker. Good story and keep being the positive example she deserves!
6,025
daddit
I gotta say, something all the dad's I know seem to agree on, becoming a dad has a way of increasing your emotional spectrum. I swear i never has much of any emotions until the night my son was born... Glad to hear it was a good reason to cry mate, I know you'll keep doing right by your daughter, and that warms our hearts.
6,026

I’m not a father, just casually browsing reddit and found this. I aspire to one day be a father like you sir, not just a father but as you say a dad, and a damned fine one at that, good shit man.
6,030
daddit
Sitting at my desk. In the office early only one or two people here. Which is good cause I got to “I’m daddy” and I cried too.
6,031
daddit
Good on you Daddy! This is the best thing I have read in so long- coming back in to give some more GOLD because you sir, deserve it! Wishing you and your family a very happy healthy long life together!
6,032

Hey brother, I wish I had more than just an upvote for you. Keep it up

Made me happy cry over my morning cup of coffee. Thank you for telling this story, it's adorable and heartwarming! Lots of love to you and your family

Wear those tearstains with honor kind sir!
6,036
daddit
You’re so freaking awesome. An inspiration! The fact that you went out of your way to truly understand your child’s feelings is amazing. And the fact that you cried when you saw that Snapchat is true love. Good job, dude.

I'm new to this sub and about to be a dad (daughter due in April) and this post.... This post almost made me break down at work. So sweet and wholesome. My step dad is a piece of crap. Been on drugs every since I've known him. My mom left my dad for him while he was still in jail. In and out of prison for the past 12 years. Just altogether awful. Seeing the total opposite of that is so amazing. You're awesome. Thank you for this post.
6,041

What the fuck who the fuck is cutting onions in here!
6,042
daddit
I cried 2 weeks ago. I bawled my eyes out like a little girl. Context: I come home from work, beatdown as hell. I’m physically and mentally exhausted. I do my things around the house and lay down in my chair for a nap. I’m rudely woken up by my daughter (5.5) blatantly telling her mom no. I flip out. I hand my infant son to my wife, grabbed my daughter, and smacked her in the mouth. “ you need to listen to your mommy, and never tell her no in that tone.” Then I had to hand her to my wife. I ran upstairs and bawled my eyes out. I tried to reason with her. I tried to work on the problem. She kept fighting it and mouthing off; and now I felt like a scum bag. Bad damn day.
6,043
daddit
Man this teared me up. What an ending. You've done great
6,044
daddit
Fuck you op. You made me cry almost as much as I did at the end of the movie Fynch. If you've seen it you know how significant that is lol
6,045
daddit
Thanks! Much appreciated!
6,046

I knew where this was going... Saw it coming part way through... Knew what you were gonna say, and it still kicked me right in the feels when you got to the "It was me" part. Strong work Daddy!
