20+ Parents Who Are Doing The Most
Growing up, we all had that one friend whose family was intense. Not in a bad way, but in a Brady Bunch way where they do everything together and love it. These families are always doing the most and we're here for it...maybe even a little bit jealous of it.
Moms Are Next Level
This woman texted her family saying she wasn't feeling 100%. Her mom said she would catch the next flight over to be with her, and that's just what she did.
You Have To Celebrate The Little Things
This kid won the "cleanest backpack" award in high school, which to many may seem like a throwaway title, but think about it. A boy in junior high with a clean backpack? Yeah, that's worth celebrating.
Always Looking Out For Us
She texted her mom asking if she could Uber to her place since it was close and not only did mom say yes, but she left some Advil and some ice cold water at the door.
Yes Please To The Mango
She went home to visit her parents and forgot the mango her dad cut up for her. So what did he do? He mailed it to her! Express, so she would get it before it spoiled.
Bad Day Turned Great Memory
This family got a call saying that their little one had an accident in her kindergarten class. Dad decided he didn't want her to be embarrassed, so he dressed up to match.
Love Is Gently Bullying Your Boyfriends
Did dad help set up this beautiful proposal? Yeah, he did. Does that mean he also gets to stand on top of the hill and make a joke about it? Absolutely it does.
Look At That Big Smile
Even from a young age, this dad has made a point of taking his daughter out on a date once a month. He goes all out with flowers and everything.
Who Is Who?
This mom decided that she was going to have some fun this Halloween, and to do that she dressed up as her son! You almost can't tell them apart, can you?
We All Love Dramatics
What is funnier than a dad who is next-level dramatic when he asks if you're going to be home for dinner later? Like yes, obviously...but only because you asked like you were my waiter.
He Looks So Happy
Dad wanted to have a nice picture taken of him and his grand-dog. How sweet is that? You gotta love a parent that supports your babies, even the furry ones.
At Least They're Honest
These parents have a hobby of making wine and have decided to use their gifts for both evil and good. They know their kid is a maniac, so they're going to remedy it.
Spread Those Wings, Girl
Her dad was peeling oranges every day to put in her lunch all through school. On her last day of high school, he put an article on how to peel an orange and put it in her bag.
A Bath Fixes Everything
Mom noticed that her daughter was stressed studying for exams, so she decided to put an end to that. Not only did she draw a bath, but she also made tea and blew up balloons with encouraging messages on them.
Everyone, Get Along!
We can't have anyone fighting in the family, not even the cats. These parents sat their cats down and gave them a talking-to so they would stop fighting with each other.
How Cute Is This?
For a snack every day, this mom draws pictures of her daughter in the same outfit she wore to school that day with a big smile on her face. Just when we thought snack time couldn't get any better.
Whoa, We've Got A Real-Life Spider-Man
These parents picked up a Spider-Man costume for their son and let him dress up in it and then helped him into different places in the house and then photoshopped themselves out of it. The results? Magical.
Dad Loved Her First
This girl got broken-up with by a dumb boy, so her dad went out and picked up a cookie with a sweet little message on it in icing to remind her that she'll always be his number one.
Mom Always Knows
Whether by divine intervention or just mom-sense, she always knows if you're getting into some kind of trouble, even if you think you're being sneaky about it. Think again!
Every Picture Needs A Splash
Dad noticed that his daughter was trying to take a sweet Instagram picture of her downing her drink, and you know what he did? He said what we were all thinking: that the picture needs a splash, and he went for it.
Cozy Because It's Made With Love
This person got accepted into their Ph.D. program of choice, so mom decided the best way to celebrate was to make this adorable quilt with a bunch of microscopes in different colors.
Movie Snacks Taken To The Next Level
We are all guilty of taking a big purse into the movies full of snacks we bought somewhere else for less, but this mom sneaking in a full cob of cooked corn is something else.
The Best Memories Will Be Made
This whole family got together and made a "drive-in" for all the kids. These cousins are about to experience an awesome night with memories they'll never forget. I wonder what they're watching.
"Everyone, Come Look!"
It truly is the little things in life that bring you joy. Like this mom who called the whole family into the kitchen to see the smiley face the noodles made on her spoon.
Mom Didn't Forget Anyone
This person asked their mom to make them a mask so they could wear it when they went out. Mom delivered, and also made a tiny one for the dog! Mom never forgets anyone.
Leave It Up All Year!
Mom knew that the apartment their kid lived in was way too small for a tree, so she made a wreath finished with lights and all their favorite ornaments from the family tree.
Loving Both His Ladies
Anytime this dad goes out and gets flowers for his wife, he makes sure that he gets some of his daughter as well. How sweet is that? He wants to make sure they both know how much he loves them.
This Is Going To Make Everyone Cry
This mom has three daughters, and every day she writes five lines in a journal for each of them. She's going to give them to her girls on their wedding days. Cue all the tears!
Mom Never Forgets
Like most of us, this family was separated by the quarantine over Easter, but Mom didn't let that stop her from dropping off a little basket of goodies, even if she did just have to ring the doorbell and run.
Your Accomplishments Are Theirs
This dad was so proud of his son getting his Ph.D. that he rented a whole billboard to send a message. Dad never graduated high school, so this meant a lot to him, too.
Next Level Extra, Always
This mom loves the theatrics. She takes things like mouthwash and instead of keeping them in a mouthwash bottle, she has a glass decanter for it. Because we should be cleaning our teeth in style.
It Feels Like Someone Is Watching Me
Do you ever get the feeling that you might be being watched? Whoever it was that opened up this fridge to see dad's handiwork certainly would feel the same way.
The Most Trustworthy Handy Dogs
After her power had been out for almost a day, dad sent a picture to her of the two family dogs who are dressed and ready to come save the day.
My Blanket Keeps The Boys In The Yard
What do you do when you find out that your daughter is starting to date? Why, you make her an embarrassing blanket with a disgusted dad on it, of course!
That's One For The Fridge
Their son would have gotten this a lot sooner if they had just sent it via the phone, but then he wouldn't have a cute little Polaroid. Plus, who doesn't love getting mail?
What Goes Better With Coffee Than Money?
Every time dad comes to visit, he leaves a bit of money behind for his daughter. But, he likes to be sneaky in the way he leaves it behind. Almost like an Easter egg hunt.
You've Got To Make Sure He's Up To It
What better way to make sure that your daughter's new boyfriend is the right kind of guy than to challenge him to a chess match over Skype? They'll be telling this story at their wedding.
Someone Had To Do It
Those of us who grew up watching The Lion King consider having children just to have this kind of moment. This picture is going to become a treasured piece of memory.
He Looks So Majestic
What are the chances that his daughter's extensions would be almost the exact same color as his hair? It's basically asking to be turned into a beard that's so dramatic and beautiful.
Just What Every College Grad Needs
You know what we need more than anything when we finish school? A cheque for a whole $4. That will help him get at least one and a half coffees.
A Very Subtle Jab
There comes a time when mom just isn't messing around anymore and she's going to say what's on her mind. Like this mom who sent an Easter care package that was pretty much just a guilt trip.
Waiting An Internity
"Actual photo of me waiting for my daughter to finish her homework." If that's not the most dramatic statement of the year, I don't know what it is. She's doing her best.
Get A Laugh Every Time You Check Your Phone
This parent has the step-by-step guide for making checking your phone less dreadful and funnier. "1) Get your child to squash up against a window 2) Take photo 3) Set as phone background 4) Child is 'stuck in' phone."
If You Can't Beat 'Em, Join 'EM
A man spent a long while trying to find his sons, walked past them a bunch of times until he realized they were standing with the mannequins. Naturally, he decided to join them.
Can't Even Tell Them Apart
These parents decided to spoof their son's Facebook profile photo and they paid so much attention to all the details (like the girl's tattoo and the boy's necklace) that the result was perfect.
Special Edition Bookmark
"I asked my mom for a cool bookmark and this is what she gave me. (Yes, that is my mother)" This is quite clever and creative. Now every time she opens the book she'll get a sweet reminder of mom's sense of humor!
Never Going On Holiday Again
This family decided to embarrass their daughter at the airport after she was away for three months. That's enough to make her never want to go away again, or maybe leave and just never come back.
That Looks painful...
"Mom broke a knife while cooking and sent me this picture." If you didn't know the knife was broken, that would surely give you a mini heart attack... until you notice there's no sign of blood.
Best Costume Of The Year Award Goes To....
A mom dressed up as her son for Halloween and she did it so well that she now looks more like her son than her son even looks like himself.
"For Your Eyes Only"
This is such typical dad behavior. It seems like it was more effort writing an entire paragraph about not knowing what to write about than to simply write "happy birthday son, love you."
Better Late Than Never
A mother came in and said to her son, "bought this 20 years ago, totally forgot about it.....here." I'm sure he would have truly loved it 20 years ago so it's the thought that counts...?
