Father’s Day is a time for gifts, silence and relaxation ― or, in reality, the exact opposite.
We turned to the funny fathers of Twitter to learn what their special day actually looks like, and their hilarious tweets show that fatherhood stops for no one (and that kids can be brutal pretty much all the time).
Here are 15 tweets about kids taking over Father’s Day.
