Fatherhood as seen on TikTok
Like many people of a certain age, I spent my quarantine discovering TikTok. I mean, what else was there to do? My favorite videos by far were those that involved families hanging out and having fun together. Among those, were a lot of great dad videos. Dads who told jokes, dads who danced, dads who got peed on for the first time 🙂
So I obviously began collecting my very favorites for a Father’s Day post. Trust me when I say hours upon hours were spent putting together this compilation. Enjoy and celebrate all the amazing ways there are to be a modern dad.
