Father left downcast after his daughter refused to ask him to participate in the dads race in her school because of the size of his stomach.
She had been telling her dad about the conversations with her schoolmates on whose father was going to win the race.
His daughter also admitted that all the students asked their parents but he was shocked that he didn’t get asked to participate.
When he asked why, she only looked at his stomach without saying a word.
In his words;
“My daughter said all the kids were in school talking about whose dad would win in a race.
She said that they all agreed to ask their dads to be in the race. I asked why she didn’t ask me to race.
She looked at me. She looked at my stomach. Then we drove home in silence”

@im_tolumicheal added: “Reminds me of when I carried last in a race against other parents at my son’s inter-house sports competition.
After the race, I noticed my son was avoiding me somehow and trying not to let his mates know that I was his father… meanwhile he already begged me to act like I wasn’t. We made a deal with it…a hilarious father son deal. He was trying to save face.”
