Target getting ready for Father's Day

Kulovicz1 · 2022-05-18T18:42:20+00:00

I don't carenif it's for marketing purposes. Still better job than most today's companies do.

philhalo66 · 2022-05-18T18:57:16+00:00

i cant wait for the UN to post about how women face struggles and real men support womens rights on fathers day.

Aman_10003 · 2022-05-18T17:57:49+00:00

This seems like a good thing.

OldEgalitarianMRA · 2022-05-18T17:58:26+00:00

Love that, thanks.

googitygig · 2022-05-18T18:49:53+00:00

I love this. One of my biggest pet peeves is the lack of representation father's get. We've very much always been treated as the secondary parent.

We still are treated that way I suppose but seeing things like this genuinely warms my cold dead heart. We're getting there lads. Slowly but surely.

FloraIvyThorn · 2022-05-18T18:41:30+00:00

This is really sweet, I cant have children of my own, but I've always wanted to adopt when I grow up

PaulfussKrile · 2022-05-18T18:26:29+00:00

Awesome! I’m buying these. For once, I’d like to see a book where the father isn’t either absent or incompetent.

blaizken_420 · 2022-05-19T04:26:09+00:00

They care more than google at least

Skyboy91 · 2022-05-18T19:35:36+00:00

Who’s ready to see all the single moms getting props and “Happy Father’s Day” sentiments? 😂

World_Renowned_Guy · 2022-05-18T21:08:41+00:00

I went on a heroin bender a few years ago really badly. Almost threw my whole life away. My wife got me the “why every daughter needs a daddy” and have done a complete turn around since then. I have two daughters. Never going back. Best gift I ever got.

brianthewizard1 · 2022-05-18T19:28:03+00:00

Why is this so wholesome?!? I’m so happy these types of books are available! Warms my heart!

BoredRedhead24 · 2022-05-19T03:39:35+00:00

Small amounts of progress are better than none, still a win.

Clockw0rk · 2022-05-18T19:26:48+00:00

While I certainly applaud positive change like this, I do wonder what happened to mom?

Do children’s books feature functional men and women relationships anymore? I’m not familiar since I’m not a parent, but it seems like in the little recent children’s media I’ve been exposed to either has LGBT parents, single parents, or parents too busy to participate in the kid’s adventures.

I wonder if we’ve leaned into catering to the minorities so much that we’re no longer teaching what average is and that it’s perfectly okay to be average.

Theapexfighter · 2022-05-18T22:00:04+00:00

All we hear is

bubbybyrd · 2022-05-19T02:17:23+00:00

Wholesome post.

Comments are trying to make it seem like corperations are out to forget Father's Day lol. Or trying to shit on Mother's Day, grow up guys come onn

Dirk_94 · 2022-05-19T04:39:48+00:00

Wholesome :)

Chocolate_Spaghet · 2022-05-19T12:36:20+00:00

Imagine having a dad.. haha.. ha..

rahsoft · 2022-05-18T20:26:27+00:00

since I believe this is in the USA

perhaps people should buy the top two books in the photo and have it delivered to your local congressmen( and what ever you have at state level)

maybe with a sticker that says something like "get the hint yet?"

followed by "make this( and shared parenting) a reality, or we vote you out..."

Sensitive-Ad6609 · 2022-05-19T02:17:50+00:00

Everyone, calm on the two dads stuff. You realize it is a picture of just four out of possibly an entire section, correct? I hope you all do... Yeah, I am gay. Yeah find that book cute, BUT thankfully I know that is not how oh so many think and all. To me, it also supports the idea of a child waiting to get out of foster care and into a home where the parents/guardians are not looking to get paid from the government or some such because they have the child under their care. Anyway, where I work in no time at all the hallmark vendor set up fathers day things in her area. I smiled and was quite happy to see the items out. No, I do not work at target. Anyway, we have the run of the mill gift sets and all out too. I am just happy that father's day is still celebrated. No matter the structure of the dynamics of the family. Truthfully especially with a man and wife, so calm down and be happy stores have and support (i know, money makers but..) father's day still. If you have a family, spend time with them. Make sure you let them know you love and appreciate them. Hopefully they will do the same for you. I know I love and appreciate my dad, so i am happy we have father's day things out. We both work at the same place, so if i get him anything after work i have to be sneaky. >_> uhm, anyway.. Hope all of this gets read. Have a good one, all.

crazy_days2go · 2022-05-18T22:34:20+00:00

This makes me soo happy to see the daddy and Dada book. Inclusion for everyone.

Co1dyy1234 · 2022-05-18T21:11:29+00:00

Buying the two books at the top

Great-Flan-5896 · 2022-05-18T21:19:24+00:00

Oh no it's the patriarchy run for your lives! Read in SpongeBob voice for good times.

pacsatonifil · 2022-05-18T21:24:22+00:00

All of them great. Love to see them

QuinnTrumplet · 2022-05-19T02:44:37+00:00

Can’t wait for the vice article on this one

Obvious_Cupcake7662 · 2022-05-19T12:50:43+00:00

Most people are sensitive over Father's Day for reasons, mostly with daddy issues.

My old man's not perfect but I'd kill for spending time with him

BuzzOff2011 · 2022-05-18T20:17:53+00:00

Not gonna lie to ya'll but I haven't heard shit about fathers day yet here in Canada

tacolover2k4 · 2022-05-18T21:53:11+00:00

Cool, 3 books about bears

This is great.

ArroCoda · 2022-05-18T19:22:23+00:00

Kings day let's goooo

United_Reality4157 · 2022-05-18T19:32:09+00:00

Thank god for small mercies

MartianNamedScotty · 2022-05-18T21:04:28+00:00

These are all wonderful

frontalmoth · 2022-05-18T23:20:35+00:00

That's nice to see. ☺️

DecimatingDarkDeceit · 2022-05-19T00:28:12+00:00

Welp! I will be the persom that shall broke the wall and say; '' Bears make terrifyingly terrible dads '' (not joking seriously after two or three documentaries about bears I am convinced that these canine-oids on steroids are psycopaths)

Equal_Confidence_944 · 2022-05-19T06:07:28+00:00

What is Dada? (Legitimate question)

Taylor862 · 2022-05-19T16:04:13+00:00

Good to see that they have representation for all types of dads. It’s important not only for the dads themselves to see them represented properly but also for the children who have alternative family units to see themselves accepted and represented properly. Love to see it

btmvideos37 · 2022-07-12T20:27:17+00:00

No one NEEDS a dad. They need loving parents. Two moms is fine.

theonedilirum · 2022-05-19T01:45:31+00:00

I grew up without a father. This was extremely difficult for me. I still struggle with it.

ArroCoda · 2022-05-18T19:24:47+00:00

Fathers day is good I'm saying this for Haiku bot let's go fathers.

_MatVenture_ · 2022-05-19T16:55:23+00:00

Well, one of those doesn't belong there...

ChocolateFantastic · 2022-05-19T04:43:10+00:00

This is something that I’m glad is being addressed because kids who grow up with out a father or father figure end up facing a lot of bad things in the future

Noobinpro · 2022-05-18T22:58:17+00:00

Ya, just caught up in BS. Thank you for the reminder.

TangledGoatsucker · 2022-05-18T21:20:52+00:00

Playing both sides of the fence. They aren't selling those two-dads books for profit, but for show.

Choadis · 2022-05-18T20:09:49+00:00

I'm broken, I had to triple check for loss

Pleasant_Economics97 · 2022-05-18T19:30:35+00:00

Still don't shop there. They still peddle sit like the fauci and kamala harris books

AreU4SCUBA · 2022-05-19T04:49:12+00:00

What the fuck

Noobinpro · 2022-05-18T22:06:07+00:00

What the hell is daddy and dada?

Are we supposed to be all happy about another man trying to be are kid(s) father?

I'm about to get heated over this! Oh ya happy early father's day...

0utbox · 2022-05-18T22:18:55+00:00

Daddy and dada? What BS is that?

ch994y · 2022-05-19T01:35:06+00:00

disgusting degeneracy

knucklz74 · 2022-05-18T21:18:00+00:00

That is absolutely heartbreaking that these books exist.

knucklz74 · 2022-05-19T01:49:50+00:00

Nooo I'm saying in ABSOLUTE DEFENSEOF DADS. It should be no Brainer that Dads areVERYYYY IMPORTANT yet the courts HAVE MADE US NOTHING BUT A DOLLAR BILL . IT FUCKIN PISSES OFF

Dry-Pianist1853 · 2022-05-18T20:27:57+00:00

Given how fucked the world is and the general feminist nature of corporations like target, I'm have a hard time accepting they actually would cosign books like these

OldSamVimes · 2022-05-19T00:11:13+00:00

Should we really be exposing children to gender stereotypes?

Isn't 'Dad' too gender specific for these modernly progressive times?

LOL

Emotional-Ninja-7908 · 2022-05-18T20:24:31+00:00

Erm… I had it in mid march

NextStopMyAss · 2022-05-19T00:02:03+00:00

That's wonderful. I want to buy the top right book to read with my son. Sadly it likely doesn't have any trains, planes, bulldozers, or trucks in it, so he absolutely would not be interested 😂

Golden_disrepctCo · 2022-05-19T00:52:46+00:00

That last confused me is the red guy the dad and the blue guy a step dad or the opposite

tbmepm · 2022-05-19T08:54:48+00:00

I like u.

tacticalslacker · 2022-05-19T09:06:31+00:00

I got an email from Etsy last year apologizing for Father’s Day marketing emails. Fuck all those people so very much.

musaraj · 2022-05-19T13:11:05+00:00

Looks great, wtp?

HypnotEyes_lonely · 2022-05-19T13:38:20+00:00

Glad to see someone giving dads the credit that they deserve

manicraccoon · 2022-05-19T15:42:24+00:00

That's super nice.

BoringAccountName78 · 2022-07-05T01:17:47+00:00

I don't understand. What's the issue?
