25 photos that show the reality of life as a dad
Being a dad is not always about going outside with your kids and shooting a few hoops in the back yard. Plus if you have a daughter, you may not be at ease with all her girly expectations! So, it may also represent a time when you're forced to discover your more "effeminate" side or learn how to improvise!

Parenting is about being in tune with your child so you fulfill and meet their expectations - and that can be quite a challenge. From helping them with homework to keeping them amused when they're bored, being a parent is a 24-hour job!
