WATCH: Daddy daycare has nothing on this father with twins
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp
We believe in fairytale stories of fathers being superheroes...
Traditionally, dads have not been known for their homemaking skills. Most of the time it has been mom's 'job' to care for the kids and tend to the house. Whilst dad goes out and earns a living for the family.
But that stereotype has become quite blurry, with fathers becoming more and more involved in the parenting department.
And we have to say, we absolutely love it...
We came across a video recently on TikTok that showed the calm and cool etiquette of a dad who was busy parenting.
Not only did the video show us that dads are fully capable and willing to do things for their kids, but it also showed us how staying cool and calm can be just the formula needed to handle a crying baby.
And this dad breathed all the characteristics of someone in control. A trait many mothers and fathers could learn from.
The video showed a dad who was travelling with his twins in a train preparing formula for the little ones, who were clearly very hungry.
Sadly, the positive intention in which the video was posted quickly turned sarcastic as some people commented that he was actually endangering the baby.

Check out some of their comments:
kattkardashh: "Oh look a dad doing what moms do alllll the time.. good for him! 🥰"
Terrie: "And people are complimenting his patience instead of judging him for propping up the bottle" "It’s just a potential choking hazard when it’s a baby who can’t hold/move the bottle themselves"
Shultzmom: "Do you have twins? Also, it isn’t like he is propping it up and completely leaving the babies. He is right there inches away."
its.andrea.denise: "Ummm when you have twins there’s no choice but to prop the bottle at times. I’m a twin mom myself. One needs fed while the other is tended to.
Brandy Reed: "The fact that a dad doing normal parent things is this impressive is strange."
