I remember those days. The turbulent travels on the Valley Metro bus with two kids. What an amazing influence this father is, taking this opportunity to bond with and educate his child. Kudos. Heros don't always wear capes.

Dad Wears Skirt In Solidarity With His Dress-Wearing Son
SandraFowler 10 years ago
I would guess that his son wants to wear a dress and he wants to support his son in his decisions.

We don't need an explantation why he wants to wear a dress. :) Just like there's no explanation needed why girls wear ridiculously uncomfortable heels that make them walk like donkeys and dress like hookers on Halloween - both of which I don't care for but don't mind if women do that. It's their own prerogative. If this was a little girl in the photo wearing a Spider-Man outfit, people most likely wouldn't be asking for an explanation. Peace and love to all!

Parents Tattoo Their Legs With Daughter’s Birthmark So She Won’t Feel Different
MariaTomlin 10 years ago
Even if she outgrows her marks, they can always spin it as a gesture of family solidarity. Nothing wrong with that.

If it wasn't already an issue I dont think they would have put so much thought into helping their child feel okay with herself. IMO

I understand the intention. But guys, we are all different, and doing that you are remarking that the marks are wrong.

Daughter Woke Up From Surgery To Find Her Teddy Looking Just Like Her
Xelanaly 9 years ago
Okay, seriously? This isn't sending a horrible message like, "If I suffer, so should others." No. Its to make her feel less alone. I know I feel better when someone else can relate to my problems, so we can get better together. Its like look-alike dolls. Besides, she can nurse the bear back to health herself. This is a sweet gesture and not at all wrong. Its her teddy bear.
ShannonJohnson 10 years ago
My son had "casts" on both his "Bubba's" legs when he had leg surgery on both legs at age 5 :)

Why do you have to find someone else suffering like you to feel better? That's wrong.
