  • For those of you who don't know, our step dad has been in our life for 16 years and we think of him as our real father. He welcomed us with open arms and loves us like his own children. Today we thought it would be the perfect time to show him how thankful we are and how much we love him and ask him to officially become our father and adopt us. We are so excited and feel extremely lucky. We love you dad!!

      @Anal Farmer damn another loner who’s trying to dissuade step parents from acting like an actual responsible parent. Just because you lack familial love, doesn’t mean others do. This family is obviously happy and content with their father instead of some man (the biological father) who doesn’t seem to be in the picture. Trying to dissuade others, won’t make you any happier 🤷🏻‍♀️

    This is so heartwarming. I tried to adopt my stepdaughter when she was younger but her 'real' dad would not sign the documents (even though he had absolutely no part in her life, even refusing to pay child support). I raised her since she was two years old. My daughter then surprised me on my birthday six months after after she turned 18. She had legally changed her last name to mine.

      @tylerlopes476If you are paying child support and not a threat to the child, demand the court to give visitation. Your wife nor the courts can require child support without visitation.
      You do not need an attorney for this, just the courage to stand on your square. I know what I'm talking about.
      Also, if you have health insurance for your child, the courts can't require any other support. The judge or attorney won't tell you that support is support because it will affect the demonic extorting system in place.

Spent thousands in court fighting to legally make us his. Treated us like his own from day one, gave us anything we ever could’ve wanted. Now he’s the greatest grandfather I’ve ever seen. Can’t thank the lord enough for putting him in our lives... love you dad

Look into the Lion Pride...Look how the males behave😂 you will get your answer.
      'true alphas do this and that blah blah for society'- So that it benefits irresponsible women. I am not a simp. These kinds of manipulation doesn't work on me. I have read the story about 'White feather campaign' women tried the same thing... that's how millions of men died....Nice try though...These kinds of manipulation doesn't work on everyone.

You can have your opinions. But personally I would never be invested in someone else's offspring.. I want to pass on all my earnings and properties to my own genetic offspring.
      Also a 'simp' is a guy who sympathizes with womankind. Where do you see me doing that?? In fact I am quite the opposite.
      Edit: I am assuming that you are from USA cuz you tried to make me feel that I am missing out on having a great partner like you cuz you would only date an older man...well, the thing is in my country there's prostitution legal...unlike men in USA we don't need to kowtow to women for mating rights. That's why sex is not a big deal here in my country(it's human psychology- something which is available is not a big deal) and someone wouldn't date me, that's also not a big deal. We only stay with women who care for us. If someone wants to go, they are free to go.

      Its one of the reason men die earlyer than women, cant remember where i read it, but basically we are expected to always be strong and hate cute things and so on, so where women grieve, cry and let their feelings out and get past it, men tend to just bottle it up and push it deep down inside and shit like that builds up with years, so you end up getting stroke, heart conditions, stomac bleeding and yeah alot of shit caused from stress and struggle.

    My stepson was 8months old when I met my ex. She is gone, he is still in my life. He is my kid, my buddy and the love and respect between us is something special. He is 22 now, his mom put both of us through the fucking ringer. We survived together. Best buds!

    I grew up without a father and had no support from him all my life. Some won’t take care of their own.
    Then there are people like you. Having a dad at home makes a huge difference for peoples lives. Thank you for being such a great guy.

    i know this comment is old for the video at this point, but I love how this motorcycle, tattoo, tough looking fellow isn't afraid to show his emotions. Probably one of the many reason his now children love him so much. a lot of parents would not want to show this emotion as a natural instinct, but this dude is obviously very comfortable and loving/loved by this family. props to this dad fr.

    I'm not trying to bring the mood down from this special moment, or seeking any,, empathy or pity points for myself.
    I have lived most of my early life (4-18) at 2 (terrible) orphanages, mother is alcoholic drug abuser, and multiple stepdads of the same problems.
    Seeing something like this melts my heart, finding your true family, in whatever shape it may come is something I hope for everyone to experience in their life ❤️
