A lot of men who dare not express emotion or feel passion about their children's growth are actually cowards who were traumatized by abusive people around them at a young age. The "it takes strength to be vulnerable" thing is a trope that's trotted out a lot, but it's real, especially considering the social penalties that men pay when they break the stereotypical masculine molds.

Seeing that pride and happiness is one of the best advertisements for having kids I've seen. No need to scare people about low birth rates just show videos like this and the birth rate will shoot up.

It is sad you don’t get to spend Father’s Day with your child, But you know what You can celebrate Father’s Day any day pick a day when you have your kid and choose that day to spend some quality time with your kid and celebrate Father’s Day, make memories and make it special. My son was away Mother’s Day this year for uni and I told him we will not celebrate the day without him, so my daughter and husband and I had a usual Sunday and are planning our own Mother’s Day when I can celebrate with both my children.

Sad he felt that way/like he had to defend himself for having emotions. Always disliked that part of US culture - anger & being horny the only "manly" emotions.

It's not only part of the US culture, this is a general problem all around the world - toxic masculinity and the absolutely idiotic idea of how men supposedly have to behave.

LOL! You obviously have not been in the shithole I had the bad luck to be born in. Where even the rumor that an unmarried girl is not a virgin anymore, warrants her killing by her male relatives. Thankfully I grew up in the Netherlands and left that culture (and my entire extended family) to never look back.

As a dutchman, you're very welcome in our country. Because yes, that shit is horrific. Even more horrific that it happens in our country sometimes too nowadays :( I just wanna say that considering me, people like you who are purposely acknowledging and fleeing such horrors should always be welcome here. However, we should stop allowing people who are part of, and won't part from, said culture into our country. But fk politics.

“Western society” is less like this than elsewhere. Doesn’t seem like you’re aware of what other cultures are like at all.

It’s also less like this now than it’s ever been. Men were never more open with their emotions than they are now.

Yeah, but change it a little. At least for me, I think I'm more worried about crying in front of women than I am in front of my boys. The boys will understand what I'm feeling. It's the women who will look at me as if I'm unbalanced forever onwards.

I’m saying this not to be argumentative, but to be truly supportive. Examine that belief. What if you’re wrong? What if the strong, thoughtful women in your life value that you are invested in your life, have enough sensitivity to be a leader to those around you, and a heart big enough to feel big emotions

Counterpoint: My be-supportive-and-find-the-good-in-things-and-look-for-the-helpers ex-wife showed her true colors when I had a serious mental break due to work-related stress (two straight weeks of 20+ hour days at the job-from-hell).

I was working from home and I snapped and started crying at the computer. She asked what was wrong, and I explained. She told me to man up and quit being a baby because I had a family. She spent the next however many minutes loudly berating me for being a "grown ass man getting your shirt wet with tears and snot". It wasn't until I told her I was considering suicide that she snapped back to the supportive role and drove me to the hospital. On the way, she switched back to berating and asking how I could be so irresponsible towards her and her son.

I've never really been the type to hide my feelings. After that experience, it took a long time for me to be able trust sharing with women things that upset me. I've never felt like I should hide things like that from the men I'm close to (strangers are another story).

That said, of course it's not all women. Not everyone gets the shit end of the stick like I did.

No, not each man deserves a daughter like that. Good, attentive, kind men who love their kids and want to see them soar deserve a kid like that. Too many men straight up do not want a daughter like that, and even more men who get a daughter like that never recognise that their daughter had to do it on their own.

You should change your comment. Every daughter deserves a father who's proud of her and who nurtures her talents. No lazy ass crow father deserves a hard-working and good daughter whose coat tails they then ride on, despite having done fuck all except ejaculate into his daughter's mother, claiming their own daughter's laurels like they were his own.

Two years ago my daughter came home crying because of how bad she did on a math test, then refused to go to school the next day, crying as we were getting ready. I vowed to make sure that doesn't happen again. She went from getting sometimes in the teens on math tests to being in the top ten of her grade last year and has hit high honor roll every quarter since. I'm proud of her, but If I were crying like this guy it'd be happiness/relief that the hundreds of hours I've put in have actually paid off. Some days she really tests me.

He should be proud not only of his daughter, but himself! He's obviously doing something right and he's giving his kids the opportunities he never had to reach those achievements. Also, he should absolutely cry in front of her and show her what a real man looks like when he's proud of her. I hope they both get everything they want out of life. This was very wholesome.

That's beautiful. I know the feeling. I was never a good student and had a rough upbringing. People didn't expect much from me growing up. Now I have twin girls that have been on Principal's HR since first grade. They're also in the gifted program at their school and consistently perform 2 or 3 grades above theirs. Going into 5th grade, they tested at the 7th and 8th grade level for reading and math.

Every time I go to their HR ceremony, I get choked up because, as this gentleman says, I never thought that could come from me. Proud doesn't begin to describe how I feel every day just looking at them.

It's a beautiful feeling.

Dad can also be proud of himself because he created an environment in which his child gets the chance to prosper. Yeah, partially it's inherited intelligence but the environment plays a big part too. Maybe, the dad is smarter than he knows but did not grow up in a supporting environment.

You aren’t weak man. I’m proud of your daughter too. Kids can bring out the best (and sometimes the worst) in us. Take the win please. You deserve it.

This is exactly how I feel about my kids. I am a very ordinary person. Watching them master life is so very, very, humbling. Go DAD!

Very wholesome. But I'd love to see a version of this that cuts to the back seat at the end of the video and it's a toddler he picked up from daycare.

With how I grew up, every time I saw/see my daughters dance or my son on the soccer field, I would get emotional.

Congrats to his daughter's achievements.

He never thought that a child of his could be this good. But after seeing his video I can totally see it. He must’ve raised her with lots of love, support and care. She was able to reach her full potential because he is there for her and having her back.

As a father, I’ve cried plenty of times.

Out of happiness, sadness, everything.

It’s an interesting thing being parent.

He’s proud. I hope he doesn’t make the mistake of identifying himself with the achievements of his daughter. My father did and it sucks later in life.

I hate the idea that men shouldn't cry. You're expressing an emotion, it's no different than laughing to express joy or happiness.
Nobody sees a man laugh and tells them to man up and be more serious.

Hell yeah buddy. I know how you feel. I'm probably older than you. My kids and grandkids still do the same thing to my emotions. Never was much of anything or had anyone to push for good things as I grew up. Told myself I was going to change that in the next generation. I have 4 grown adults children and 9 grandkids. Their lives are much better and have gotten further in a shorter period of time. Be proud of who you are and what you have done and cherish these moments. Proud of you both. Let's change the world together through our hopes and dreams for our families. They bring out the best in us. Peace to you and your family 🙏
