Dads are definitely like this with both

Yeah in my experience it is both with both. Tire them out by throwing them around and then snuggle up.

Once met a dad who treated his daughter like #2, she was a little badass. Hope she's a grown-up badass now.

My parents treated me like #2. And by #2 I mean shit.

Don't worry, there will come a time in their elderly years when they need care, and you'll have that talk about putting them in a nice retirement home.

And you'll say to them......"Well, good luck with that."

I can't wait for that day.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, there's no real reason not to... Unless they don't like that sort of treatment.

She fuckin' loved it. He was just launching her all over the place. At one point I saw her skin the heck out of her knee; she just picked out the big hunks of gravel and kept on going.

Both with my daughter, but never going quite as far as swinging her around by one limb. Just flopping her over my shoulder like she's a sack of potatoes, then holding her ankles and dangling her upside down against my back. She loves it, and will actively try to climb up my chest when I'm sitting to flop over my shoulder herself sometimes.

Buster Keaton's parente used to launch him off the stage and into the audience as the "indestructible child"

See, and look how he turned out!

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I don't know who Buster Keaton is.....I assume some kind of professional mosh pitter, and stage diver?

Third president of Australia.

My daughter’s #2. She’s also trying to do ballet in a pink dress right now.
