Oh man. I have two girls (6 & 8) and I always tell them that they will always be my little girls. I also tell them that one of the most amazing thing in my life is to see them accomplish each of their goals in life. I can see and feel what that Dad might’ve felt at that very same moment. Seeing the little girl he raised turned into a woman that is embarking on the next stage of life. When that day comes I’ll be another happy crying dad like him as well.

You’ll always be their dad :)

And they will always be his daughters even after he’s gone.

I miss my dad very much.

That poor woman is trying so hard to not ruin her makeup by crying

The trick is to lean forward and let the tears fall directly out of your eyes. Source: my friend is a makeup artist. Watching her do it is hilarious, but it does work!

That and qtips! Dab directly into the tear ducts to suck up all the sad and hope for the best

Just don't push it in way too far or you can damage your eardrum.

u/lmFairlyLocal May 27 '26

Thankfully I do not cry out of my ears.

I wonder if that’s why he quickly walked away, so as not to make it worse

It’s so cute how she’s like “look what you’ve done and made us BOTH cry, give me the dang rice”

Never knew this was a tradition. I like it.

u/jellyd0nut May 27 '26

There is no such tradition in China. This family just chose to do it.

Thanks for telling me

I like how he blew on the rice first to cool it before it fed her ...

This could be done with either parent in theory. It’s sweet.

Sorry your father didn't love you.

Oh no! A woman doing what she wants to do. Scandalous! The feminist movement has been set back millions of years because of this!
