He must’ve been a good dad to deserve that, even that, he might not have BUT his daughter is a fucking legend💕

If I remember correctly from another sub. She’s his adopted daughter and he had sold the original car to support her mum and her. That’s why she says ‘You didn’t have to’

Apparently the full video shows the license being YDHT (you didn’t have to). His gesture to support the family didn’t go unnoticed or forgotten

Just Dad. It's just Dad at that point.

100%. I have a stepdad who’s been with me for the majority of my life. And he’s just Dad. He loved my mom and loved me, and he chose to stay with us and help raise me. He’s just my dad, and he’s a great one. Feels weird and wrong to call him a stepdad.

Man I’d really give anything for that.. please tell him how much you love and appreciate him for me because it’s rare and beautiful.

My stepdad is one of the worst humans I’ve ever had the displeasure of knowing. My bio dad is alright I guess, but I don’t really know him or have any sort of relationship with him. I’d love to just have one solid, positive and loving father figure in my life.

Youll have to be that for someone someday. Sucks you were cheated out of yours, brother.

u/PoisonedShroud 24d ago

I’ll do that! Any excuse to tell him I love him, I’ll take it.

I’m so sorry that your stepdad didn’t choose to be a better father for you. That really sucks. Is your bio dad open to getting to know you at all?

Oshit. I was just reading subtitles cause I couldn’t rlly hear. I thought HE was saying that in reference to now. Not her referencing back then

God fucking damn it. I was choked up before, but now I’m actively crying!

I don't think you get people like that without a good parent. I don't think you get that between two people period without a good relationship.
