As a parent, you strive to give your child everything they need. No task is too daunting, no effort is too small, and no challenge is too great.
Why is this? It’s because parents don’t want their children to feel lonely, scared, or sad.
One day, Ben Sowards, a father from Utah, USA, received a call from his 6-year-old daughter. She needed him, so he immediately went to her school.
It turned out Valeria had a minor mishap. There was no danger, but Ben knew his daughter would be embarrassed because she had wet her pants.
Before leaving to get her, Ben came up with a plan to cheer her up. He decided to lighten her mood by joining her in her embarrassment.
Reported by the Huffington Post, Ben doused his own jeans with water before driving to the school.
He pretended to need to “cover” something, so when he arrived, he asked Valerie if he could borrow her backpack.
When Valerie saw the big wet mark on her dad’s jeans, she understood his plan.
Without acknowledging the accident, everything improved when Valeria saw her dad was pretending to be in the same situation.
“I knew she felt embarrassed, but I thought if I could make her laugh, it would all be okay,” Sowards explained.
She was upset, but when she saw my jeans, her expression changed. Every father knows this look. We just walked out of the school like it was all normal.
Ben’s only job was to drive his daughter home. However, he did much more to ensure she wouldn’t feel embarrassed. What an incredible dad!
There are many wonderful fathers out there, but Ben’s creativity stands out.
Feel free to share this story on Facebook to celebrate Ben Soward’s wonderful act.
