Father Plays The Ultimate Dad-Joke On His Daughter’s Date

Dads tend to thrive on a bit of date-banter with their daughters' fellas.  "Have her home by 11 now!" or "Don't do anything I wouldn't do" are common favourites, and everyone goes away chuckling and feeling just a little bit uncomfortable. However, we'd venture a guess that there was more than mild discomfort after one Benjamin Schock's attempt at a bit of pre-prom messing with his daughter's date. As he sat watching his wife take some professional photos of their fifteen-year-old daughter and her boyfriend before they headed off to homecoming, he was struck by inspiration. Benjamin thought it would be gas to hop into the photos in his daughter's place, captioning the recreation with a Liam Neeson style message. Alongside an image of him cuddling into the (we presume) terrified young man, he wrote: "Whatever you do to my daughter, I will do to you."

Benjamin's wife Sharee told Buzzfeed: "My husband is a big-hearted teddy bear, so it was his way of being silly with a pinch of “I’m watching you buddy”." Sharee went on to explain that comic relief is important in their family at the moment, as Benjamin is currently bravely battling numerous brain tumours. She said: "We hope that above anything else this pictures shows the love and protective nature of a dad with his little girl, but in a playful and not-so intimidating manner." H/T: The Metro
