Help Dads Be Better Dads!

JLeer: Help Dads Be Better Dads!

 Here’s to all of the dads out there--the fathers, the pops, the papas, and the padres. This weekend is for the men that aren’t afraid to wear diaper bags with swagger, and those that can balance bringing bouquets to ballet recitals and wearing war paint to football championships. The built-in Mr. Fix-It in your life, that never lets your car go unserviced, and always waited up for you after dates with your high school beau or beauty (shotgun optional). During your younger years, he taught you to ride a bike, and then inevitably applied Band-Aids to treat the bloody aftermath with expert precision. His feet became even tougher from constantly stepping on Legos. He will forever hold the title of spider-squasher and bug-destroyer. Here’s to the man that was both an expert pigtail stylist, while still managing to hold down his title of Ultimate Grill Master of the Universe.

 His only fatal flaw? Every superhero has one—that’s what makes them relatable! We’re going to go out on a limb and guess that your dad’s major downfall comes in the pair (or five) of awful, shapeless dad jeans. With aid from JLeer, this no longer has to be the case! Just in time for Father’s Day, JLeer has come to the rescue with a huge sale—all of our jeans (usually $115) have been marked down to just $89.99! Now that’s something to celebrate! Make sure your dad stops wearing dad jeans forever!

 Here are a few of our favorite Dad moments that are going viral on the internet-- we hope you’ll love them as much as we do:

 1) Rock On Dad: This awesome stay-at-home Dad has an entire gallery of photos of his son. The difference between his photos and the ones on your iPhone? Every one of his features his hand in the photo as well, throwing the “rock on” sign. Brian Reda, the dad behind the camera stated that: "The self-referential hand gesture, though, makes me part of the story. I know that sounds selfish, especially in our selfie-crazed culture, but the series is about our relationship. It's about us. It's about being father and son. We're a little team. When he glances at the camera he's connecting with Dad and the audience vicariously experiences our relationship." To see all of the (awesome) photos, click through to the gallery.



 2. Breaking Bad Dad: In this hilarious video, fictional star of Breaking Bad Walter White is honored by his television son, played by R.J. Mitte, with a tribute to all that Walt did for their family… “be it cook meth, poison a child, or kill a man named Crazy Eight with a bike lock.” If you’re a fan of the show, this is a must watch:



3. Dad Casting: World's Toughest Job: This hilarious YouTube video features actors auditioning for the World’s Toughest Job-- you got it -- fatherhood! They cover all of the bases with scenarios that dads face each and every day. Watch it, then send it to your own dad so that he can laugh too!


 To the CEOs, the stay-at-home dads, the first standing ovation in every crowd, the little league coaches, and the #1 fans. Here’s to the lunch-packing legends, the ultimate backseat driver, and the man that still sends chills up your spine when he uses your first, middle, and last name all at once. We hope that you have a day full of whatever your heart desires--whether you have an NBA-Playoffs-Watching, beer-drinking, recliner-sitting, golf-playing, Game of Thrones-watching kind of Sunday, or whatever it is that makes you happy. But mostly, we hope that you know how appreciated you are.

Cheers to you, SuperDads.
