20+ Dads Who Prove That Actions Speak Louder Than Words / Bright Side
Parents are our heroes who care for us, make us laugh, and console us. They are always there, in good times and bad, no matter how old we are. Netizens, lucky to have parents like this, some parents shared photos and stories from their lives, we have collected the most interesting and touching ones in this article.
“I went to Unicorn World today. I was the only dad who was dressed nicely. This is what my daughter wanted.”
- Yesterday, I was crying at home because my best friend betrayed me so badly. My father tried to comfort me with words, gently stroked my head, and even made me some tea. But when he realized that nothing was helping, he went to the kitchen.
I was amazed when I saw him offering me a plate with the last burger on it. My dad loves burgers! He is ready to share anything with anyone except burgers. But it seems that his daughter’s emotional comfort is most important to him. © Chuckgwarts/VK
“My dad and I used to have milkshakes together all the time. My daughter and I shared our first milkshakes together.”
- I’ve always tried to be a good father. But one time I shouted at my son. He went to school, and I felt so bad: I kept imagining how sad he felt because of his father’s unnecessary screaming.
Instead of going to work, I rushed to school. I stormed off, but classes had already started. I found out from the timeline where my son was.
The bell rang and everyone came out of the classroom and there was my son. He saw me and approached: “What’s the matter, Dad?” She handed him a piece of chocolate, started muttering apologies quickly, and started crying.
My son stood there comforting me, saying, “It’s okay, Dad.” Then I calmed down, hugged my son, and hurried to work. Naturally, I was late and got reprimanded. But the main thing is that I apologized. © TalkingMagpie/Peekaboo
“This is the best part of my day.”
“Solo camping trip with my 3 year old. Hard? Yes. Worth it? 100%.”
Dad is always by your side.
- My dad passed away when I was 2 years old… but the whole time my mom was pregnant with me, he built me this giant dollhouse… Needless to say, I still have it in my room… I’m 22 years old. © Charlie Manson/Reddit
“Follow up annual photos”
When Dad took care of creating wonderful childhood memories:
- I set up an email address for my son when he is born, and often my wife and I will send him some pictures along with a message or story. Sometimes I describe a fun day we had, sometimes just a simple message telling him how much I love him. One day I’ll give him the keys and hopefully he’ll get out of this. © cncamusic/reddit
“Even though I’m 21, this is what I get when my dad makes me lunch.”
“4 years ago, my 70 year old dad told a dirty joke and our favorite photo together was born.”
Parents are willing to do a lot for their children.
- As a child, our family barely made ends meet, and my father worked tirelessly from morning until night to keep us afloat.
Once, when I was 5 years old, I saw a red dinosaur in a store, and when it wasn’t bought for me, I started wailing loudly. That night I couldn’t stop crying, and apparently continued to do so while I ate dinner, took a shower, and kissed my dad goodnight as he went to his second job on the night shift.
The next morning, he came home and brought me that dinosaur. I told him it was the best thing I’d ever spent money on. I’m 32 now, and I still sleep with that toy. © *** ofMemoryLane/Reddit
“When my first son was born, I asked my father what he had learned — his advice: Bring a camera.” Best parenting advice I’ve ever gotten. Here’s 4 years of my dad photographing the “non-important” days.
“When I was five, I gave my father a ‘ring’ made out of just a key ring. 22 years later, he still wears it.”
- One of my fun childhood memories – before holding me at night, my father would ask me: “How should I hold you? With the breeze?” “naturally!” I would like to reply.
He knew what I was going to say, but he kept asking me every time. The blanket rises into the air three times, and the gentle breeze envelops me three times as I sleep. In those moments, I felt warm and safe.
Now, before bed, I ask my 9-year-old son the same question, even though I already know the answer, “How can I put you to bed? With a breeze?” “naturally!” My son answers. Usually the blanket rises in the air 3 times. © Ice96rus / Peekaboo
“This is why the kids love to play with Daddy! My wife said she never doubted I would come up with this.”
“I built a 65-foot boat in my backyard for my four kids.”
“Half a day of washing dishes with the twins. I’m tired, I’m sore, my work is suffering, I don’t have much of a personal life anymore, but I’m loving every minute of it.”
“Dad, I want garlic noodles from the Chinese restaurant.”
When your father takes care of you:
- I will remember my first job for the rest of my life: working 6 days a week, exhausted, and always in a rush. One day, during a very difficult day, I had a craving for pastries. I called my father and, without hesitation, asked him to bring me candy straight to work. He came quickly and handed me a small box and smiled.
It’s been 10 years. I have changed 3 jobs, but every Friday, my father comes to visit me during my lunch break to give me pastries: no requests, no reminders. I’ve been a mother for a long time, but taking care of my father is priceless. A father’s love is wonderful, no matter how old his “little daughter” is. © Mamdarenka / VK
“Daddy-daughter time. Try not to judge me too hard, this is only the second time I’ve done this. My daughter is only 6, so she thinks this is the best thing ever.”
“My daughter wanted a bed, and not just any bed, but a very expensive bed. My inner voice said, ‘You can make it yourself.’ And she did.
Dad is a jack of all trades.
- I am a father of daughters, and I am learning to change clothes using a sewing machine. I never knew pants for teens were such a touchy subject.
It turns out that girls’ waist-to-hip ratio changes as they get older, and there comes a time when almost any clothing is inappropriate. Add to this, teenage insecurities and hormonal fluctuations – and this is the reason behind our constant arguments with girls.
But once I got the gist of the problem, I watched some videos online, bought a pair of cheap jeans from a thrift store, and started practicing. Not only is it wonderful to design clothes, but I also enjoy the process itself – it is soothing. Kids are so happy when they wear new pants, and they fit perfectly! © ShrekOnApik/Reddit
“My 6-year-old daughter has been asking for months to have a mohawk like her dad. I cut it for her today. My baby girl is amazing.”
“I get my kids to eat extra vegetables by having a ‘loud crunch contest.’ It’s important that they choose their ‘weapon.’ The winner is determined after 10 rounds.
When Dad’s wisdom helps build your love:
- My father used to talk to me about love since childhood. I didn’t understand everything, but I remembered a lot. For example, he said that in love things are calm and gentle, and if there is a lot of anxiety and your moods go up and down, it’s worth thinking: “Is this really love?”
He said that if someone laughs at me or makes me uncomfortable, and it’s hurtful instead of funny, I should tell that person immediately. If they keep doing this, it’s not love. These simple and valuable words were said to me by my father.
And now I am in a relationship with a wonderful and caring man. I cannot understand how one can love someone who causes pain, discomfort, or discomfort. I’m sure a lot of this is due to my parents. © Pavilion No. 6 / VK
“There aren’t many victories to being a parent, but when your 14-year-old says she’s saved her allowance and wants to take you out for coffee, you feel great.”
“Me and My Son: Dad and Baby Dinosaurs”
“My daughter saw a picture of a Christmas tent online and wanted one of her own. I’m not particularly handy, but I made it work In a few days. And now you read there.”

When everything is fun with Dad, even cleaning:
- My husband and I have separated. After some time, my daughter and I started fighting, she thought her father was great, while I was a monster, doing everything wrong. She sent her to live with her father, thinking that after a month they would be unhappy, and she would return. But it’s been almost a year!
My daughter has a great time there, and they don’t have any conflicts; Everything is calm and good. She even started doing better in school, and my ex-husband lost some weight – and they now run together in the morning. I recently went to their house and was amazed: it is incredibly clean there, even though they were constantly making a mess…

“I built this tiny house as a gift for my daughter’s sixth birthday. She loved it.”
Ingenuity makes a great father an even more wonderful husband.
- My husband unlocked the next father level. I thought you would all appreciate the absolute win for my father-in-law and his partner.
Our 8 year old daughter had a boyfriend over (spring break) and they were playing outside with Dad for a while. When they entered, the girls ran to me and said as one: “We are your humble servants. Tell us what to do.”
Well, my wonderful husband made a deal with them. If he won the game they were playing, his prize was that he could tell them what to play next. He won, and asked them to pretend to be my servants.
They picked up their snow gear and hung it up, emptied the dishwasher, tidied the bedroom, took out their pajamas, and prepared their bathroom, while I sat on the couch and controlled them. My husband got a lot of brownie points. © ***2 / Reddit
“I promised my son I would go hiking with him. Now on foot, later by bike, yacht and skis.”
“I have two sons: the eldest is 7 years old, and the youngest is a newborn. Once a month, my eldest son and I spend the whole day from morning to evening working on various joint projects.”
“Here’s an example of what we did together last month. We used construction paper, glue, toothpicks, and a white glass marker.”
“I printed it. I didn’t design it. I’m still proud of it. The kids feel great.”
It is very easy to melt a father’s heart.
- My daughter and I were driving home, talking about trivial things. Suddenly she said: “Dad, you know that you are the best! Thank you for being in my life.” I almost let go of the wheel.
These words came so simply and unexpectedly, but I think I live for a confession like this. Parenthood is not an easy task. It’s certainly not as difficult as the mother’s, but it’s still not simple.
These kind words from your children help you gain strength and strive to be better and do more. I will do my best for my wonderful family. © Mamdarenka / VK
“My wife passed away in August. I pulled myself together and made costumes for our little ones. It felt so good.”
“My girls (7.5 months) slept through the night last night for the first time without night feedings! Today they woke up in a panic at 4:30 because they didn’t cry because of their midnight feedings! And they slept better than I have in months!”
“Had to repack the car 3 times during a layover during our holiday. I finally became a pro. Including, but not limited to, pram, sewing machine, cooler box, large box of toys, scooters, suitcase each, and a set of breakable crockery.”
“After watching Harry Potter In the movies, children brought this magic wand from the street. I made themes suitable for young wizards. And everyone is happy.”
