TV dads we wanna have

A holiday like Father’s Day reminds us there are so many different kinds of families out there. Girls today aren’t just raised in one kind of household and how cool is it that so many different families are represented on some of our fave TV shows?


This Father’s Day treat your dad, dads, stepfather, grandpa, uncle, legal guardian, whoever else plays the “dad” part or, if you don’t have a father figure, your mama (Hey, why just give her one day?) to something super special. We’re thinking how we would treat these top TV dads, too.


Burt Hummel
We love, love, LOVE Papa Hummel on Glee! Whether he is fighting for his son Kurt’s safety, serving as a father figure to Finn, or being all around amazing, Burt shines as a dad.


Spencer Shay
So, Spencer (iCarly) is actually a big bro, but he is Carly’s legal guardian and therefore can be seen as someone to celebrate on Father’s Day. Want to get creative? Why not make Dad a kooky sculpture, using Spencer as inspiration?


Phil Dunphy, Jay Pritchett, Cameron Tucker and Mitchell Pritchett
See what we mean about representing all sorts of families? The super funny Modern Family showcases a traditional family (mom, dad and kids), a multicultural family, and gay parents with an adopted daughter. Despite the range of dad awesomeness on this show, they all manage to be there (often embarrassingly) for their kids.


Colonel Fields
While he is the reason why one of the Pretty Little Liars is moving to Texas, Emily’s dad really tries to accept his daughter’s sexuality and always makes sure she knows she will always be his little girl. Aww!


Jerry Russo
Alex, Justin and Max’s dad on Wizards of Waverly Place isn’t just that, but also their magic tutor. Plus, he gave up his magic so he could marry their mom. Hey, if he hadn’t, the Russo kids wouldn’t exist. Think about it…


Which TV dad most resembles your own? Blog about it, babes.

Danny Tanner from Full House is overall the BEST TV dad I've ever seen! He has good morals, but he does make mistakes - just like every human does...but he works hard to make sure his kids make the right choices, too.

MOD MOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay im having a movie night so i can break the ice with my crush but i have a few qs.
1. how many ppl should i invit
2. what movie should i watch i know my crush doesnt like chick flicks
3. what should i wear???????
4. what should i serve
5. what time should it start
6. and what if i go threw a lot of trubel and he doesnt come
7. him and my bff hate eachother and i dont wamt them to fight all night bc then i cant talk to him all night.




Hey girl! That's such a good idea! To answer your questions: 1) no more than 10, you want to keep it cozy and more than 10 is kind of a crowd. 2) you could watch a comedy! Everyone loves to laugh! Try a classic like Zoolander or something! I've seen is a million times and I still laugh every time Smile 3) Try rocking a cute crop top with your fave jean shorts, it's totally cute and perfect for summer! 4) Keep it casual. Order pizza and make mozzarella sticks or something. Then you can do something fun for dessert, like an ice cream sundae bar or a decorate your own cupcake bar. 5) If you're going to have dinner too I would start around 6:30 or 7. That way you can eat, watch the movie, and talk before anyone breaks curfew. 6) If he doesn't even come it's his loss. You can still have a totally amazing time with the rest of your buds. 7) Ask our friend in advance to not start any drama with your crush. Just tell her that you don't want them to fight and it would mean a lot to you if they didn't. Have fun babe! This is going to be great!

MOD MOD MOD I am relatively interested in protecting the environment, but whenever I bring a topic like that up my family makes fun of me! I don't like it when my bros and sis kill bugs for no reason, and they do it often! If I say something about it they call me a nerd and are really rude. I'd like to recycle, but they all think I'm a weirdo if I mention it, and even when I turn off the faucet when my sis is brushing her teeth she gets mad. What should I do?

 

Hey girl, I used to have the same problem with my fam. It's gonna be tough, but if you really want to make a difference you have to remember that every little bit helps, and that your sibs will eventually ease up once they get used to it. Remember, it's practically a sibling's job to give you a tough time, but if you stick to your principles they'll respect you more in the long run!

MODMODMOD This is kind of random but what does it mean when people say guys are players

 

Hey girl, a player is a guy who flirts a lot but never gets serious. Definitely guys to avoid!
