If there's one thing that seems to ground celebrities and make them more relatable, it's when they become parents. Most mothers and fathers tend to go through similar struggles with their little ones, whether they're famous or not. No amount of money can make raising kids a perfect experience. That's why we love peeking in at the parenting roles of celebs to see them dealing with the same stuff we are. Like these celebrity fathers who posted photos of themselves on dad duty.
Let's get one thing clear here: A dad hanging out with his kids is parenting, not babysitting. They should help with the same amount of childcare as any other parent (work permitting, of course), and these A-list dads know that. They're all there for their little ones through hair brushing, bathtime, game nights, and more.
John Legend
Ashton Kutcher
Technically this is a video and not a photo, but we had to include it considering all the controversy Ashton and his wife, Mila Kunis, caused over bathtime. The couple caught flak for saying they didn't bathe their children until you could physically see dirt on them. The duo then shared their bathtime routine for all the haters. They do actually wash their kids.
Dwayne Johnson
The Rock has three children, and he's a very hands-on father. Here, he's pictured detangling his daughter's hair, which he said is one of his biggest responsibilities. "I may be bald but I know a thing or two about hair. Mainly because I wish I had it," he joked in the photo's caption.
Dwayne Johnson (Again)
We just had to include the Rock again, because he really is just that amazing of a doting dad. Here he is snacking with his little ones while watching The Lion King. He joked, "Beautiful weekend breakfast with my favorite ladies watching A QUIET PLACE … Jk, we're watching THE GODFATHER. Actually LION KING for the 8,000th time, but next weekend we watch SCARFACE!"
Scott Disick
Scott's definitely had his struggles in life, but there's no denying that he's a loving father who cares a lot about his three children. He recently posted a series of photos of him teaching his kids to drive a boat. Such a fun father-kid activity, and a memory they'll all surely cherish well into adulthood.
Neil Patrick Harris
Sure, this may technically be an Instagram ad for American Girl, but we wouldn't at all be surprised if Neil also just played dress-up and dolls with his daughter Harper for fun on the regular. He's big into musical theater and acting, and that's got to lend itself well to playing pretend with his two kids. We love it.
Mario Lopez
Mario posted this cute picture of him and his daughter, Gia, on their way to a father-daughter dance. "#FavoriteNightOfTheYear," he hashtagged the picture. The dance must have been '70s-themed or something based on Gia's outfit. Although Mario did not commit to any kind of theme at all, he still looks great.
