Lol my dad left
BeeCups
I've seen the opposite in my family. Parents taking from their children to make themselves feel better
Regdabmaof
I like that not only is the father giving everything of himself to the son, he doesn't let his son see the toll it's taken.
johnvictor
Not my dad, just imagine him with a chisel and hammer trying to break me apart to be more like him and less like me.
QueenAmy
Ok Giving Tree, back off
Kimalaendiety
I can't relate to this... and that makes me sad. My dad never invested anything positive to me... and he died when I was young.... :-/
treehorsebearpig
so that's where my dad went

Thanks to Jeremy Collins, the original artist. "The Giver" (father and son caption has been added by the OP) A source would have been nice.

I downvote all posts without source. And upvote all comments that highlight the issue. +1

Thats funny. I also have a hole which my father tries to fill.

Dark. +1
kobriengw
I hope that I'll be this kind of father, I'll find out in a couple months
JosZ
Just put a picture of the first block you give him on Imgur
kobriengw
I mean, I could put a picture of my name....since he is being named after me.
Morris101
Who else thought the father was taking the block from the son?
TheLimpinBiscuit
I certainly did.
AbsurdSteak
I bet the artist meant it to be ambivalent so it can speak to people in different ways. This art tells you about yourself.
Forcenator
Idk I think I'd rather call that my uncle. Always trying to fill a hole of mine
szepasszony
I hope you're joking
Bootyclapnutsack
My uncle told me I was the best at the game of Pillar Sitting when I was young.

Wooooowwwwwww.... +1 to you

After seeing this I texted my dad this picture and told him how much I love him. Call your parents folks.
Madfrancis
Unless your parents are horrible people then downvote oversimplistic garbage.

Or dead.

Just lost my dad to cancer. Burying him tomorrow. This made me cry.
braingain
Sorry for your loss
usernamealreadyexsists
Thank you
balidown
I'm going to print this and give it to my dad on Father's day. This hit home.
balidown
Who drew this? They should do one for father to daughter. I only have daughters.
domsson
How about this: Print it, use it as a reference to draw your own version. Might look shittier, but it will be a lot more personal and direct
domsson
Not confident enough in your drawing skills? Don't worry, you can start over as many times you want. You can also draw over it if it helps.
balidown
I draw a great stick figure
Sportytripod
My dad would have been 63 today, lost him 2 years ago. The feels are reals.
sirbartonslady
I almost lost mine last month. I still haven't had a chance to see him since he got out of ICU because I've been sick.
Sportytripod
ILikedTheirOldStuffBetter
Sorry, man. I lost mine over ten years ago & I still feel the hurt, like when I hold the grandson he never got to meet.
Sportytripod
Yeah that's got to be tough. All we can do is try to be our best selves and make them proud. Alright enough sissy talk haha

Don't you dare sing this song! I'm trying to have a good night, not a sad night!!
firefighter26
No kidding. Whenever I hear that song I always feel like I am not doing enough as a dad.
houseoftrimmer6
When you coming home son, I don't know when, we'll get together then dad, you'll know we'll have a good time then.
Ki11er
When you coming home dad? I don't know when... but well get together then, we're gonna have a good time then.

PATRIARCHY!!
AbsurdSteak
It can be for everybody.
rotinaj
not for people with abusive parents
poopisfunny
True, but the picture says different.
AbsurdSteak
It doesn't belong to anybody, and if a girl feels the art on a deeper level it's just as valid for her.
poopisfunny
But it actually says son :)
TheGreaterGatsby
Poop IS funny hahaha
Ziablo
This sucks. My father is more the son. Sucking me dry
awkwardstare
this gave me an actual "lol" with people sleeping in the next room :3
Atuat
I feel u man
eroso
You are not the only one. Being a dad for your own dad can be kinda messed up, but damn that sure grows your character.
imaginaryPeppers
I thought for the longest time that I was fine. Now I realize I can't stand weakness. I feel like they expect me to save them.
OneZebraInAHerdOfWildebeests
Give him a glass of water
hookerbot5000
right there with you. Mine's a narcissistic alcoholic. Finally stopped talking to him last year. Feels good, but mom's still enabling him...

ScruffnShine
I know how you feel, my dad was a parasite growing up & when he died I was actually happy.
imachikenlol
My dad was a piece of crap too and I felt how you did at one point. Now I'm confused and hurt.
Sifernos
I'm looking forward to my dad dying ... then my brother can focus on his new family and i can stop feeling bad for ignoring him...
AdamAz
Wtf...
Sifernos
My father has two families and just narrowly didn't start a third in his 60s... none of his kids want to talk to him. I wish i liked him.
AdamAz
Thats fair enough. But saying you cant wait for him to die is a little messed up.

And let me know if you need another one.

If I asked my dad for $20 he always gave me $30.

Your daddy never was very good with numbers.

If I asked my dad for $20 he always beat me with an old set of jumper cables.
Steelballsofstill
are you sure we are not half siblings?
Quest4Life
Asked my father for 7 dollars to buy a toy when I was 9. I never asked him for anything again because of his reaction.

Tell us ur story

He was beat with jumper cables.

I asked mine for $100 so I can buy food for the rest of the month (I had $5). He sent me $300. I can never love that man enough.
Jefforylebowski
If I asked my dad for 20 dollars he'd give me 50 dollars and give me my dollar back and a new car

I never asked for money. I just didn't eat.... He gave me money a couple times because he noticed I needed it but I never asked.
snipsnapdoggo
if i asked my dad for money to go out for lunch he'd give me $8.
snipsnapdoggo
he is of the mindset that you have to work hard in order to have nice things. So i guess he was trying to teach me that.
ImgurPoof
You wasn't able to get lunch for $8?
GoDrunkYoureHome
Restraint in regards to things I wanted. I never released how valuable that was growing up, but seeing the position I'm in now, I am very 2
GoDrunkYoureHome
Grateful for it. 3

Mine to. But when I was actually in need of money for food he stock my kitchen with food. He would give me what I needed but also taught me1
JohannesFit
He'd probably give me a quarter haha
SnickSnackPaddyWhack
If I asked my dad for money he'd lecture me on how I'm a useless part of society since fast food doesn't count as a job, then 1/
fblonk
Reminds me of my dad. Except he beat me with jumper cables after giving me the missing block.

You know, fuck you. and your points. I don't care about your situation I love my kids with ever fiber of my being.

No the jumper cables were your missing block.

This will come in handy as the jumper cables joke is commented about three times on every post

My dad told me Father son fishing were the happiest times of his life. Then I told him I hated fish and he beat me down with jumper cables.
ChrisTallant
Can someone fill me in about the jumper cable line?
ch3fboyRG
Yep

A prolific AskReddit user added it to seemingly innocuous stories. A bunch of posts got upped to Imgur and they're molesting the dead horse.

My dad also. Than i met my father in law. He was THAT person in my life in the picture above........So in some view...my wife is my sister.
Cheeseweenie
Your dad didn't do his job as a father, but it doesn't mean maybe one day this photo will represent you as a dad/mom. You don't need to be
KevinWithABeard
True
waitingtofly
So was mine. I haven't spoke to him since I was 14. He used to beat us, abused alcohol, and stole our money.

I wish I could have fought him. punched that muthafucka in the face

Use your experiences to know how you as a father should act... Be the man he wasn't

No, more like he'd kind of just halfass throw blocks everywhere & every once in a while a whole bunch would go away.
allMypostsAreshitpostsbecauseIpostWhileIshit
And he gets faster and less careful as he goes on

When?

Tell them. Then when you're gone they can hold on to that feeling. Too many people spend their times on regrets, that will help.

When they are old enough to appreciate that, definitely tell them. It's important.

Oh yes.

I feel my dad (and mom) did a pretty damn good job regardless. I definitely saw their style change with my two younger sisters, but it 1/2
teknoman117
always felt like we were a team and they'd help me with anything. I have my parents to thank for quite nearly everything I am.
olegh
As the oldest child I feel like my parents exhausted most of their attention on me and then each of my siblings has got less and less.
blahtotheblahblah
As the youngest of 4 I can see how thats true. I was just told to kill myself and got kicked out. They love the eldest still though.

You should definitely tell him that and say that you feel sry.My dad admitted the same to me - it felt like a stone was removed off my chest
