Check Out These Touching Photos of Fathers With Their Children

There was a time when mothers were expected to raise the kids while the fathers brought home the bacon, having very little involvement in the lives of their children. Fortunately, times have changed. It is important that fathers time with their sons and daughters, both for practical reasons (it’s an exhausting job) and for the psychological well-being of the little ones. Take a look at these beautiful moments between dads and their offspring.

One of my fondest memories as a child was when my dad would take my siblings and me to the public swimming pool. There’s no question these kids will also remember these sweet moments for the rest of their lives.

Cosmetology is a hyper-competitive field where only the most talented make it. This is why it is so important for young, aspiring beauticians to get as much practice as possible. Fortunately for these girls, their dads are more than happy to serve as human guinea pig.

Gomes also pays tributes to stepfathers and adopted dads. After all, you don’t have to be biologically related to give your children the love and support they need to become well-adjusted members of society.

In taking these photos, we are hoping that the average father will be able to relate to these raw, spontaneous moments.

Not every child is going to grow up to play in the NFL or NBA, but it doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have fun and get some much-needed exercise while they’re at it. One-on-one is a perfect way to bond. Plus, dads need to keep themselves in good shape too!

Going fishing isn’t just a father-son activity. Taking your daughter out to the pond to catch some fish and enjoy the weather is just as important.

There are times when even a trip to the bathroom doesn’t afford a dad a chance to catch his breath.

Plenty of dads go to the gym and get swole; blasting their pecs and growing biceps the size of tree trunks. Getting their kids into fitness early in life will keep them healthy well into their 100s.

After a busy day with the toddler and infant, all you want to do is to sleep a little. This dad and his children have the right idea here!

Playing card games like Uno and board games like Monopoly are not only fun activities, it’s a chance for the kids to learn something in the process.

These fathers understand the importance of enjoying some outdoor time with the kiddies.

Raising a newborn baby takes a lot of patience and flexibility. You have to be ready at any moment to soothe them when they cry, feed them when they’re hungry, and change their diaper when they drop a little load. In the meantime, during moments of peace and solitude you have to make sure to squeeze in some video game time!

When it comes to food, dads and their kids might not always share the same preferences. However, one thing is certain: you can’t go wrong when it comes to freshly delivered sausage pizza on a Friday night!

Young children need to have an opportunity to bond with their fathers just as much as their mothers. We call for employers to give dads more paid time off so they can be there at the moment when children are developing as people.
