this is an awesome thing that i personally can’t wait to do. if you’re a mom you can force your daughter to be in beauty pageants so you can feel beautiful. i‘m especially excited to be a dad and force my son to play sports and also take out my bottled up anger and frustrations with myself on him.
overall great substitutions to therapy 👍

My dad is so excited I’m learning to play chess and called me to say I can come play with him if I want any training lessons. It’s so cute to hear him be so animated about his hobby and happy that I’m learning it too. I really recommend it.

It has been the greatest thing to become a girl dad. I’ve been able to be more available than my dad has ever been able to be — that’s not a dig at him, he’s always been an incredible dad but he worked and worked and worked for us to have a better life. I don’t think he ever learned how to brush my sister’s hair, something I get to do every day. I don’t think he ever bought groceries with one of us during the middle of the day, something that’s a part of my weekly routine. I am realizing that the guilt that comes with being the oldest child of an immigrant, that inner pressure and need to succeed, might not have anything to do with my career but everything to do with my ability to be the dad my father could never be: available and open and involved.
My dad was incredible for the few hours a day I got to see him after he got home from work and that sacrifice allowed me to build a career that’s flexible enough to be a stay-at-home parent. I’ll never be able to thank him enough for that.
I know there are some parents here (happy late Mother’s Day / early Father’s Day) who get this, and some who will get this soon enough. Be the parent you wished your parents could have been. And if you were lucky to have amazing parents like I was, try to be even better than them.

We’re putting our daughter into ballet soon, which I am ecstatic about. Never cared to be a sport dad, but thrilled to be a ballet dad. Naturally this made me mourn that ballet doesn’t usually have merch, and thus I made my own solution. Love getting to integrate my daughter’s interests into my creative hobbies.
