Redditor downtowncrownfrown gave his 13-year-old a card for his birthday and to mark the day, he included a poem with a sweet message and a classic dad joke.
And, like all the best dads, it manages to be funny, cringey and heartwarming all at the same time.
"You're upset, and rightly so
13 can be a hard time, I know.
You can't cuss at me, but you can say 'I'm mad!'
And I'll try not to say,
'Mad, nice to meet you...I'm Dad.'
Love,
Your Father"
Poems and puns! And while his teen likely won't appreciate it now, that's definitely one to keep.
