The Daddy Thread

How do lads here manage daughters? I have a 3 year old tyrant at times - absolute meltdowns which I can’t solve as she’s joined at the hip to the mother. Other times she’s good as gold. It’s mental.

With great difficulty

Fell out with the wee lassie earlier. We’ve half made up…watching the simpsons and ive made her a snack… on account of her missing dinner. And she’s half charmed/joked me into making her hot chocolate…on the promise that she apologises tomorrow. The hot chocolate is just out of reach…She’s appealing that, unless i hand it to her, it’ll be cold chocolate. Only going to be one winner.

The four year old can be like that, was dreadful during her threeanger year. Melters we call it. It gets better.

She will turn on her mother soon enough and “daddy is my favourite” will be weaponised…don’t fall for it!

Identical to my wan. 5 now and tantrums are rare(r) but she still melts down about the oddest things . A very good kid but alien to me as a female . She also grasses me up a lot unintentionally to her mother, but i know it’s intentionally :rage:. Females :man_shrugging:

Anyways- just keep talking to her about rights and wrongs and dos and donts, she’ll get there… Girls/women actually take instruction better and like a structure and working the system.

The other fella is approaching 3 and just wants to wrestle all day while sitting in a shitty nappy …

You never will but as they get older they’ll gravitate towards Daddy, just go with the flow

It’s a cracking set up. We were there about 5-6 years back. Easy spin from Birmingham airport. Tamworth a grand little town to stay in. Very much like Peppa Pig land outside Southampton. You’d nearly do a day trip to these places from Dublin rather than Emerald Park. It’d cost roughly the same with less queues for stuff.

Anyone here with teenage kids ever hear them referring to somebody as an incel? I’d never heard of the word before today. Nicola Tallant had the lad behind the documentary below on her podcast talking about how he managed to put the whole thing together. It made me feel very old and out of touch very quickly.

Edit - should have searched the forum first. Its rife. Genuinely never heard the word before today.

Been going around for a the last few years. It’s a term that’s confused me, its supposed to mean involuntary celibate, but from what I understand these people do nothing to change that? They just form weird woman hating groups?

A lot of school shooters in US seem to be incels or similar. It seems to be a badge for disaffected young loner males.

They are basically a bunch of virgins, but proud of it, and think that it is the women who are wrong for not wanting them. They hate women as a result.
They love Tate, Peterson, Musk, Rogan, Trump and basically are for anything that might take women down a few pegs so that they will settle for them.

They want women to go back to being housewives from the 1950s basically. Where they married the first lad that asked them and were glad of it.

They say all women are sluts now, that kind of shit.

Unfortunately the internet has let these weirdos talk to each other and form a bizarre belief system. In the good old days they would have just stayed in their rooms having a wank

weve weirdos online here who toalk to them selves and have an even weirder belief system

I have full blown conversations with myself in the car. I forget myself sometimes when we’re going off anywhere for the weekend and would blurt out something. She’d look at me and ask me “wtf’ . Anyone who spends as much time driving as I do would tell you the same

That’s the one with the lads head coming out of the toilet. No one has successfully explained the plot to me yet but you’d hear lads throwing it in every now and then. I wish they’d go back to the simpler days of ‘Keep it Lemon’
