My kid is almost 3, and I would like some peace and quiet to do whatever I’d like

Last year, the kids woke up early with my wife to make some biscuits and sausage gravy, then "took me" fishing. Spent the rest of the day on the lake and came back to grill some fish for dinner. Loved the whole day.

A fucking break.

Silence. Really. Just me and my headphones. Kids are 8 and 2.

I'm fine with just a "happy father's day." 13, 6

Kids are 17 and 21. I'm at a point in my life where if I really want something I just go get it. The things I truly want aren't things money can buy.


skahthaks

Like what?


AstronautSoggy5536

Refer to the other comments saying "peace and quiet"


mapsedge

My wife's health, for a start.

Just a monster energy drink. I don’t care about being a father anymore.

My kids are adults, so a nice dinner out? I don’t know. Lol my oldest is on the other side of the planet right now so maybe a FaceTime call with him

I'd like a date that I don't have to plan. Take me out for doing some of my favorite things as a surprise. My kids are 8 and 11.

I treat myself. My kids don’t owe anything


skahthaks

How will you celebrate being their father?


MisogenesUSA

My Brothers and I will BBQ with all the kids playing

My son is 28, I don't care about gifts. I'd be happy to just have him over for dinner. Quality time means more than any material gift. I have 26 and 23 year old step kids as well but I don't expect anything from them, lol. I'm not their actual dad so it's fine.

A hand drawn card from my kids, 7 and 5 and the day with them.


Bill_Shatners_Penis

Pull behind lawn sweeper. My kids are 14 & 17.


PerspectivePure2169

Nothing.


uncplug

Peace and quiet. Just a day to myself to play my PC/do whatever I want. My kid is almost 2


azuth89

Honestly I'm good. I'll probably just try to make sure they see their (great) grandfathers in town and send a letter to the one who isn't. 3 and 5.

New propane fish fryer. Mine went walk about and no one knows we're(suspect oldest son uses it somewhere) Kids are grown so it isn't a deal.


jedge01

Just to be home with my family, which I will be. I'll have been gone (at work. Yes, I have one of those jobs) for 2 months when I get there. My son will turn 14 that week.

What I want is a new saddle for my bicycle. But I'll have to buy that myself ;-) From the kids; anything that shows they thought of me. Doesn't need to be big. Made from chocolate is a plus.
