Haven't seen my dad for over twenty years - I cherish the time I haven't spent with him.Arsenetatters said:I miss my Pa. he was 87 when he died 5 years ago but it’s days like this that can be sad. Those of you who still have their dads please cherish the time with them.1 -
A dad is for life, not just Father’s Day.1

Knowing the prick that is biologically responsible for me, it's entirely possible... He collects children 😏shine166 said:

Celebrating my daughters 1st birthday today. I received the greatest gift when she was born on father's day in 2022. Nothing will ever beat that gift.15

My 6-year old Son started vomiting yesterday
Got up @ 4am, went out with the Camera for some Photography - Came home, took him to Urgent Care, to make sure there was nothing going wrong... Now back home, putting my feet up, going to watch the rest of Le Mans, combined with the Football

Bittersweet day for me, nice that my daughter makes a fuss of me, including making me a very funny card. Sad that I don’t have my dad any more, especially as we’d have been at Le Mans this weekend, we used to go every year.ForeverAddickted said:My 6-year old Son started vomiting yesterday

Year three, no Dad.
I love you Dad, hope you're leaning against that celestial bar with your old man and brother wondering why Charlton are still so shit.5 -
Went for a run, mopped the floor, did the washing up, did some work... about to paint a room.
My kids arrive back in a couple of hours from scout camp.
The start of the day has been beautifully peaceful and the end will be wonderfully raucous.3 -
We might go for a pint or two later but I don’t mind if we don’t. I’m not a great celebrator of days and don’t need much. So a card does me.

Never known what it’s like to have a Dad around, (loads of step fathers😂) it’s not a sympathy post I love reading about those that had a relationship with their fathers, envious I suppose.A couple of right handers wouldn’t have gone a miss in my early days, some might say “more so now”
My fear now is my failings as a father will pass on to my children, but I’m sure they have learnt from my mistakes.
I tried to give them something I never knew a “Grandma “ my relationship with my mother was a lie, I got away with it when they were small but as they grew they saw through the act as my mother spread her poison.I tried several times to repair our relationship but wanting to know about my father was a moot point and she’d resort to cruel words about my children when I asked uncomfortable questions.A year ago I sat in front of our estranged daughter and told her warts and all about my childhood (a history of physical and sexual abuse) we cried together and hugged as she left after two hours, I’ve not heard a word since last September.
As I said at the start of the conversation “it will be seen as speaking ill of the dead but it’s the truth.I can’t control what people believe about me, my children are adults and doing what I wish I’d been brave enough to do and sever all ties.
My positive in all this our oldest Daughter Gemma and her family, she WhatsApp’ed me this morning and told me how much she loves me, even a 66 year old man loves to hear those words.
Ive been married to a beautiful woman for over 43 years and have 3 beautiful children and 9 grandchildren who I love dearly despite what they may think of me.
Deep down I think Dad would have said “you did ok, despite deserving the occasional clump”
Have great day Dads everywhere, cherish every moment.
RIP Dad 1930-1965

Happy father's day to all CL dads.
Both my father and step father passed away many/several years ago, so it is my two sons, the youngest gave me this (I hope his mum bought it for him as he is only 15!):
We are going for lunch to have Jamaican seafood boil, which I've never tried.
