I want a Dad!

Oh wow, I just saw this commercial about 12 minutes ago and I am OBSESSED with it now. It's so cute, it's freakin hilarious, it's unexpected, and damn it struck a cord with me. The only thing I want to do right now is to be 9 years old cheer leading outside with my dad. I don't know, I still resent my "father" for being so distant. I could never in my wildest dreams picture him outside acting a fool like that so I can have someone to practice with. All you fathers in the world (Eh hem.... Tony Luciano lol) SPEND TIME WITH YOUR KIDS!!! Cudoos to the Ad Council.



"More than 79% of Americans feel "the most significant family or social problem facing America is the physical absence of the father from the home." Research shows that the lack of a father in the home correlates closely with crime, educational and emotional problems, teenage pregnancy, and drug and alcohol abuse.

In an effort to show dads the critical role they play in their children's lives, the Ad Council has partnered with the National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse and volunteer ad agency Campbell-Ewald to create a new PSA campaign that communicates to fathers that their presence is essential to their children's well-being. The campaign provides fathers with the information they need to become better dads."-- Taken from YouTube
