Told my dad is got married. He didn't care. Told him I was pregnant and he didnt care. Gave birth to my daughter and he didn't care. After a while you just gotta accept when you don't mean anything to people.
Was in a convenience store robbery and told my dad about it. His response: "oh cool!" haha. He was a cop for a long time. He knew I was fine because I was joking about it lol
I've been an internet dad for a couple people who haven't been as fortunate. Its remarkable what one person can do simply by being there for extended period with no reward can do for a person's confidence.
โmomโ isnโt just checking that you are alright here. she is communicating that she cares. thanks mom. โdadโ doesnโt not care but men can sometimes have a harder time without an explicit permission structure to communicate it.(not all moms/dads/men etc and not always but definitely some sometimes)

This essentially just happened. His youngest grandson gets out of surgery. We send the text to everyone and he sends "thanks for the update."

LOL this was literally my dad, and he'd follow it with "excellent!"

Don't be too jealous. You may have lucked out and he could have been there every day to enforce the idea you were an annoying liability.

It's nice to know your worthwhile. Good job dude.

Oh yeah, it ends up meaning a lot to me, too. "Yes I absolutely will be your point of contact for your transition if you have no one else."
