8 ways to make Dad's day

 
Today is Father’s Day, and you know what that means: It’s time to really pull out all the stops to show Dad that you’re still his best girl. Here are ten quick ways to get the point across in a snap.

 

Make his favorite breakfast and serve it up casually, like it’s no big deal that you’ve been cracking eggs all morning for one perf omelet. ‘Cause ya know what? He deserves it.

 

Ask him a Q. As girls grow up, they depend less on Dad for answers and more on Mom. So throw your old man a bone and ask him for some advice. He’ll be thrilled to hear that you really want his opinion.

 

Just hang out. You’re not a baseball person and he’s marathoning games? Suck it up and deal, ‘cause today’s his day. Whatever Dad wants to do, go along with it. He’ll love the QT.

 

Show off. No, not in a braggy way, but if you did really good on a final exam or you just painted a masterpiece, make him the first one you tell.

 

Text it. Not around your dad 24/7 today? That’s OK. Give him a call or send a text just to say hi.

 

Pull out the pics. Parents love remembering the good ol’ times—i.e. when you were doing embarrassing things in diapers. Grab the family photo albums and ask Dad to tell ya what happened when.

 

Noted. Jot a few quick notes or doodles on post-its and stick ‘em in random places where he’ll discover them today, tomorrow or next Tuesday. Sweet reminders that he’s totally tops are guaranteed to make him smile.

 

Tell him ya love him. Go ahead, get mushy.

I am just so frustrated because my crush tries to take my papers away and then I say "Please stop." and he says "Well Orange Soda stinks!" and I just got so hurt by this I decided to transfer schools. There, I developed a new crush and he called me "A gurgle bin which means a hoop". I cried so much I transferred schools. I got so mad when a teacher called me a "Hut Hin, which means a jellyfish." One again. I moved. Am I normal? Should I drink orange soda, and go on the computer for entertainment?

Hey girl,

I'm sorry people are calling you names--that's never called for! If it continues, I would speak with a trusted adult like a parent, teacher or guidance counselor. If you like orange soda, there's nothing wrong with drinking it in moderation! As for entertainment, the computer is great, but make time for hanging out with friends and family in person, too!

Alright, so I like orange soda. My crush always tries to hug me but sometimes, the orange soda he gives to me isn't good. Please help and tell me where I should buy root beer soda. Thanks!

Hey girl,

You can buy soda at the grocery store or drugstore!

My grandpa is really into singing and songwriting and he has a ton of recording stuff. He records his own stuff and its pretty famous in places like Hawaii and Japan. Anyway, he heard me writing a new son on piano and now he wants to record me!! I have at least five songs ready to go, but I'm starting to rethink this a little. I'm kind of embarrassed at the fact that these are going to go out to my friends and fam- their pretty personal, as are most songs. I know this is a good opportunity but should I take it?




Hey girl, definitely! I think you'd regret not doing so in the long run. Sometimes the things that scare us most end up being the best experiences because we challenge ourselves to step beyond our safety zone.

My dad lost his job and i don't know what to do. So many changes happened around my house, I'm really scared about the problem. what if we lose the house, I know my mom has a job and all but it's not that much thou. And my brother is acting like a jerk all of sudden, he's only 10 but his commets are really mean. MY mom says does ingore but it's hard thou. My family can be very frustrating and my dad is all sad,mad, and frustarted because he's stuck at home with us all the time. i wish all my family conflict will magiclally disappreer .

 

Hey chica! I'm sorry about what you are going through, life must be tough for you right now.  Your dad is going through a rough time, he's worried about all the things you are and more!  It isn't because he's "stuck" at home with you, it's because he is worried about the future.  The hardest part about this is that there isn't much you can do about your situation.  Your mom is right, you should just ignore your brother.  Apart from that, try and be as helpful around the house as possible.  Do the dishes without being asked, clean up your family's living spaces once in a while and try and make things easy on your parents.  Having you as a helper will make them feel better. xoxo
