Don’t you just hate it when you can’t see over a crowd of people? This dad sure hates it, but as long as he’s got his baby with him he knows he can handle it. We don’t know what was so incredible to watch that made this dad use his baby’s stroller as a footstool — while the baby was in it, mind you!
Not only could he have slipped and stepped on the baby, but the stroller’s safety lock could’ve snapped and sent Dad flying into the air. We hope the view was worth it because one small slip and this could’ve turned into a pretty bad accident.
Does He Get Points for Trying?
We know this dad knows what his baby looks like inside his DIY "carrier" because he's actually taking a selfie of it in front of a mirror. he knows this is not how you're supposed to wrap this thing but he still couldn't be more proud of it!
The essentials are all there — the thing is holding the baby on him and that's all that matters, right? We're sure he did this as a joke (at least, we really hope he did), but the baby's face is still priceless — "Seriously, dad?! I'm holding on for dear life here, man! Snap the friggin' picture already!"
Bad Photographer
We have a suggestion. You know, when a couple is about to have a baby, especially a first one, so they take Lamaze classes and breathing sessions, and God knows what other things and services people are making money off of. Anyway, we have a suggestion.
Every soon-to-be parent will receive, at childbirth, ten free photography classes, teaching them how to operate a camera, when how to click the button, and how not to end up with photos like this once their kid needs to go off the stage after his piano recital. Thanks, Dad, for failing to immortalize this memory.
Check Matt
This looks incredibly fun... and extremely dangerous! You have to hand it to this dad for his creative idea and DIY slide, but it's probably not the best idea to pack four kids on a small mattress and push them down the stairs. No matter how much fun they seem to be having.
For this dad's sake, we are going to assume that there is a second mattress at the foot of the stairs. And besides, maybe this was the dad's last resort after hours of trying everything he could think of to keep the kids busy. We know the struggle, Dad.
Responsible Dad
There are a lot of things we can say about this father and about this photo. We can assume that he has had a very hard afternoon, and we can assume that he has had a rough time trying to get the baby to sleep, and with all that, we can't say that this dad is irresponsible.
He has gone out of his way to make sure that no matter what happens, the baby is not going to get hurt. It is circled safely within the dad's arm and body, assuring that whatever happens, and no matter who falls asleep first, there will be no rolling out of bed around here.
