Our channel is all about our journey of fatherhood and navigating the world with twin daughters, sharing milestones and cuteness along the way!
I taught preschoolers. Everest is very typical and good on you for allowing her to explore her own personality. I went through so many phases and many did not stick - some did, Her life is up to her. In 10 years she might be the girliest girl on the planet. bottom line, it doesn't matter.
I also used to teach preschool - most of the boys loved dressing up in the princess dresses. I had a coworker who had an issue with it - she never said anything to the kids but made comments to me like it was the end of the world.
Wish people would just let kids be kids.
You are allowing the girls to be individuals and both looked fantastic. My daughter was never a "girly girl", wore a jumpsuit to her prom when she was 11, wore trousers to school, shaved her head at 13 and now at 16 has chosen to occasionally wear dresses. Her hair has been short, long, blue, red, pink, purple it grows out or grows back and it is her choice and her hair. Carry on being great parents and allowing your girls to have choices and feel great about themselves ❤
Everest wearing a suit doesn't make her a boy it makes her a little girl with a opinion on what she wants to wear which for one I love, I for one am very happy that you as parents let your girls Express themselves the way they want to . Keep up the good work
I am a straight female happily married 35 years. I have 2 brothers and my entire childhood everyone thought we were 3 brothers. I’ve always had short hair and never wear dresses. Queen E is magnificent, 💜
I am a Jewish grandma of five grandkids. I support anything my grandkids do and I support and love you and your family!!!!!!! By the way I loved the Oy Vey comments!!!!!!
Mom of 5 here - our oldest daughter loved dresses, youngest wouldn't be caught dead in one. We let them wear what they feel comfortable in. You are doing it right, good dads!
I am 100% with you guys. You’re fantastic parents. I’ve a son who has always liked girls stuff. I’ve always supported him. Just let him be how he wants to be, and he’s turning into a well-balanced, un-repressed young adult now. I’m blessed cos my family have always supported him, to be him, and he just feels so safe and understood. Just know you guys are absolutely right in how up you’re raising your children. I am just so saddened by the comments I read on here, and Insta, cos I dread my son being subjected to similar in the future, cos he isn’t following gender stereotype.
100% support you. You’re a wonderful family. It doesn’t matter what children wear…or how they choose to dress..how they choose to have their hairstyle…children have every right to live life the way they choose. ❤
I have watched your channel way before the twins were conceived. I remember when so many people were saying Addison was dressed better, and her hair was done nicer, and Adam was showing favorites. Then it went to Addison, was on camera more, and favored when her sister was the underdog AGAIN? now it's gotten even worse. People are attacking this little girl's wanting short hair, and the fact that she doesn't want to wear dresses and her facial expressions are unhappy? Wow
Her parents grooming her to a boy? Why, in the H*** are people BULLYING and downing a 5 year old and her personality?
They are degrading a 5 year old! Just because she doesn't fit their own "social norm" for what people think and feel this little girl should like or want?
They seem to pick her out because she is so different in her taste and personality than Addison.
Grown people picking apart a 5 year old child....stop people!!
It’s so sad that there’s people who still think this way. Forget them y’all are great parents. Your girls are lucky to have dads who don’t force her to wear what she doesn’t want to wear ❤
Humans are idiots! I let my kids wear what they wanted, as long as they were covered. You both are great parents!
What’s really sad are the people and their ignorant comments! My gosh why are these people threatened by how the girls choose to dress? What are these negative people so afraid of? You are amazing, loving parents and the girls feel this unconditional love. Namaste 🙌🏼
You two are some of the best and most supportive parents out there. You taught your girls to express themselves and they do.
Thanks for allowing your children to be expressive, and the way that they choose to be. Thank you for always supporting them in the decisions that they’ve already made at such a young age. You both are amazing dads and I enjoy watching your children, grow up and seeing the relationship that they have with you guys.
I haven’t watched you guys in a while. Happy to see you pop up on my feed!
You both are wonderful parents. Letting them choose for themselves is great. A lot of kids don’t get to choose for themselves.
You guys are amazing parents. Keep doing what you are doing. The love, respect, and safety you provide them shows in everything they do. They emote your love and respect for them. ❤
Hey guys all I want to say to you is that you can't please everyone, You are doing a great job bringing up the girls and don't do anything different. Love all of you !!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤
They both looked cute , Children should be allowed to be who they want
Let me start out by saying you guys are AMAZING dads!! Nothing angers me more than when people think it’s ok to judge others! I was blessed with 3 daughters who are now adults. Two of them went through many stages of identity in their younger years which i fully supported. When my middle child came out as lesbian she was 15 years old and because of my support of letting them be who they wanted to be she wasn’t afraid to tell me. My girls are now 25, 22, and 19 all with college degrees and very successful. I support your family 100%! Keep doing what your doing because those beautiful girls deserve to be who they want to be. ❤
Please don't give these idiots air time. You are amazing Daddies and should be super proud of your beautiful girls. You are an inspiration to many families all over the world ❤
You both are doing a great job of letting your Daughters be themselves. Those comments are from small minded people .
It's wonderful your girls have two amazing dads that love them as they are :)
It’s so sad that you feel like you have to explain yourselves. The girls are beyond blessed to have dads who will provide them with such security to encourage them to live their authentic lives. The fun you all had was leaping out of the family photos you shared. ♥️
One of the things that makes me follow you and keep seeing your videos since the girl's birth is your love and respect for the girls choices and what makes them happy. I really don't understand why people get so mad to see parents simply letting their children choose their clothes and express their personalities. Honestly, there are so much disturbed people out there, it's mind-blowing.
I just want to say that I admire you and your family very much, and you guys are such a big inspiration for me. Hope that someday I can be such a good, respecting and present parent as you guys are.
Don't mind those crazy people comments, they're clearly creating the "reality" that they want to see, just to make bad comments about it.
~ sorry for my english, and love u guys, 3 ❤
ErMuhGerd!! This is why I love watching you and your family, so today I actually subscribed (why did I wait so long haha). What you are doing is being great parents to YOUR children which is fabulous. This is the point of parenting, letting them figure life out, but in a safe way and safe environment. Those girls are lucky to have 2 loving and caring parents. Most kids nowadays, don't have that at all. Kudos to you for not forcing your children to do/be what they don't want. Thank you for taking the time to bring this to light. I could keep going but I'll stop. Keep up the great work you two. PS.. Love the sassyy.... hahaha
I thought the girls both looked very happy in the photographs. As long as they are happy and healthy is what matters.
58 year old woman here. I rocked a pixie cut from the age of 4 until 14. I HATED dresses and lived in jeans and hoodies and t-shirts until I was 57...lol. I am 100% a girl. I love girl things. I just don't like girly clothes on me because I don't LOOK like a girly girl, and girly clothes look silly on me. But I'm thankful for my mom, who let me dress myself for comfort wayyy back in the late 60s. She let me climb trees, and play with Matchbox, and ride bikes with the boys. She also played Barbies with me when I asked her to. And I know with 100% certainty that my mom loved and supported ME... not who she thought I was, but who I actually was. I love watching the girls grow, and I love watching your relationship with them as fathers. It's beautiful, and IMHO, you're doing everything so right.
Loved the photos, you all looked amazing and she is just expressing herself just like her sister. I loved her in dad's jacket so adorable. I don't get why others feel they need to project their thoughts on others. I live your lives and agree we still have a long way to go and as an Ally I will fight with you. Three!❤
Thank you thank you for allowing your daughters to explore who they want to be and make their own decisions. They will be so much more confident about themselves as they grow older because they have a loving and supportive family to validate them. My self esteem has always been a problem for me.
You guys are amazing parents!!! Being a parent is so difficult but it’s so nice to hear other parents who will battle and advocate for their kids. I’m a straight woman married for over a decade and still HATE dresses!! My daughter will put on beautiful dresses per her choice for five min then ask to be changed. She’s 3 so I can’t imagine forcing her to wear something at 5. I’ve always let my boys choose what they want to wear as well. I do wish we would be able to enjoy more like polish nails when they were younger because it would be so amazing but they didn’t show interest lol
Great responses! I hope people will actually think long and hard about them.
I saw your pictures on IG. They are fantastic, and it looked like you had a wonderful time! Great memories!
I have been following your channel since before the queens were born and I find the way you parent the girls so beautiful and even healing to watch. Also, you don't owe anyone any explanation but thank you for sharing ❤ love your content. P.S. the first female president will likely wear suits😅
People are think what ever they want. Please please don't let anyone make you guys feel that your not doing the right thing for your girls. Your a great family. Love you all
I think your girls are beautiful no matter what! You two are great parents and those girls are lucky to have you as their dads. I support letting children be themselves and what they are comfortable with. Good job dads! ❤️
G'day from Australia. I have been watching your content for some time and support your family 100%. I am a mother of twin daughters (one has now made me a grandmother) and they are as different as chalk and cheese. Today I want to share about my nieces. One is a girlie princess and the other hates dresses, pink, and long hair. From 3 years of age she wanted to be spidergirl and play a guitar with flames on it. When she was 7 she was invited to a princess birthday party. She went dressed as Darth Vadar and her friends totally accepted her choice. You are doing an amazing job as parents and can be held up as an example of how all people should be parenting. Sending love and support. Sue.❤❤❤
You folks are awesome and truly great parents. ❤
By the way, I went through a phase where I would only wear long pants for years! And I am talking approximately 40 years ago!
Bless my mother! She never stopped me. She always told me that clothes do not make a person! All that matters is how you are on the inside ✨️
I think the pics were amazing and you two are a beautiful couple that are raising beautiful children that are happy . Keep doing you ! Love love love watching
I'm so glad you are letting the girls be who they are!! You are amazing parents and I support you totally!!
You’re such wonderful parents, I wish I had had parents like you when I was growing up as a transgender kid. The fights over wearing dresses traumatized me for a long time. I love how you give them all the options for their clothing and hair without judgement. I would challenge you to try something similar with gendered language. Even if Everest always identifies as a girl, having the language and open conversation around different possible gender identities can help with empowerment and open mindedness. Now is the time kids start to understand their gender identities… look up gender creative parenting! It might help to start having those conversations now.
PS props for handling those haters! You’re such great advocates for your family and other queer families.
I hated wearing dresses as a kid and my mom knew it and would force me to wear dresses and I remember I would cry all the time, I was so miserable all the time and so unhappy so it makes me so happy u guys let ur kids be themselves
I hated dresses growing up too and my mom let me wear pants, jeans, suits, guess what? I’m still a girl!!! I’m sure those Parents that left those horrible messages are the type of Parents that do force their Daughters to wear dresses, be worried for those kids.
First of all, Everest rocked the heck out of that suit. Second, as a mom with a 9 year old son who LOVES wearing jewelry... I feel you guys. I see you. I'm so happy E and A have you two who embrace them and love them for who they are without labels. People are reading way too much into the fashion choices of a literal baby child. Let her be, people!
Looking forward to seeing these children grow into wonderful adults, making their own choices. They will be much better prepared for life learning to put aside others' bigoted opinions. You guys are parenting in a way I wish I was parented.
Honestly I think people should worry about them. Not someone else’s family. I hope y’all know that you both are great dad’s! I started following when your girls were turning 3. I actually loved what y’all share and try to educate others about different family dynamics. I loved the pictures!
I totally agree with y’all. Your girls are awesome humans, y’all are awesome humans. THREE!!!
It is because she is so supported at home that she’s able to be herself. Credit to both of you
I think she looked great! Keep up the good job parenting!
Thank you for bringing light to to to this issue p even though some people would like to say it's not an issue I'm in support of you and I love the way you were raising your to be who they want to be and what not what society thinks they should be I'm so sorry that you are dealing with people that are so close-minded to this way of raising your children but keep it up you are amazing father
I have child that was exactly like Everest. In fact she still is. She was a bridesmaid for her sisters wedding and wore a suit the same colour as the bridesmaids dresses. Love you guys. These people making these comments need to get a life.
You two are great parents I am a firm believer that you need to let your kids express themselves that is how they find out who they are !!
I have watched your videos since the girls were babies. I think you two are the most awesome parent's ever.
Carry on as you do. You are super parents. ❤️
Making sure your kid’s are happy and well rounded at the end of the day is all that matters
You both are super parents and your girls are gracious and adorable.
My daughter was a tomboy and her youngest son is kinda girly . But both are happy and secure in there life.
Wishing all 4 of you the very best of success and happiness ❤
As I myself am as I said we respect our children and that’s what all this stems from, our children are people they have ideas likes dislikes etc etc etc and they all deserve to be considered 👍👍👍👍👍
I believe you are both doing a wonderful job at being parents.
You show your girls alot of love and support ❤️
I have to laugh at those who commented on not believing it was Everest's choice to wear a suit.
At 3 years old, my daughter told me she was going to wear a skirt everyday and she chose which one.😂
Love you guys!
Gentleman, You’re the best Girl Dad’s ever.. The hardest part of parenting is letting our kids just Be who they are. It’s hard to, give them the lead on decision making. We all tend to push our own agenda and sway their decision which puts them in a box.
The girls have grown into adorable individuals, from the time they were tiny and just learning to talk they were both so different, Let them be Different.
I love you people thank you for being you
I watched yall years ago and im currently pregnant. I looked you up because i remembered your cloth diapering videos. Im so happy to see you’re allowing your beautiful daughter to express herself the way she wants to be seen. You gained back another subscriber 💕
❤️❤️❤️ congrats on your pregnancy!! And yaaaas to cloth diapering! We loved it for us and our kids and if we had to do it all over again we’d 100% choose cloth diapering again 🙌🏻
First of all you are fab parents!, I agree with everything you have said in this video. We have a son ( who is transgender, female to male) and when he was younger than Everest he preferred to wear trousers, shirts, t shirts etc. like you both said, you have to communicate with your children and give them the choice of what clothes they want to wear and how they want to style their hair, they are their own person and you are there to guide and nurture them as they grow. I saw the photo’s and Everest looked to me like she was having fun, that is all that matters. I can’t believe some of those comments you read out, I think some people have clearly lost the plot!!.
They are beautiful little people. You are doing a great job.
I just found you guys! Family! Thank you !
My darlings......first of all, you are both amazing parents! I've been with you since before the girls were born so I've witnessed a lot with how you've raised them. We should all desire parents for kids around the world, that love and care for their children, as much as you do your beautiful girls. I wish people would just live and let live but we are not in a world where that is possible. And btw....I had a "Pixie" hair cut which is super short, when I was a little kid and I'm as straight as one can be straight! I also like the look of women in a suit. It's very fashion forward. Just keep being their daddies and loving them the way you two do. They are happy/healthy, and that's all that matters!!!!! I love ya'll!
❤ y’all are doing great.
I am a strait woman and have 2 girls, well women now, they are 21 and 22, my one daughter never liked dresses, and i never forced her to wear a dress, she actually wore a suit to her actual Prom and loved it and so did everyone else. it never "MADE" her Gay, not that thats a bad thing, i would have accepted her either way but my point is that she is strait now and has a boyfriend of 6 years! My point is that no matter what clothes they want to wear it doesnt "make" them gay, They will be what they want to be and loved being themselves!! Please dont stereotype children. They can be what they want to be! BTW now she is a businesswoman and wears suits everyday for work and loves it. she has finished college strong and now works for a wonderful company! This is the way to be guys! You are doing a great job and she will be stronger for it! love you all!
Love you guys. Keep up the good work.🥰
I love how you let the girls decide what they wear. Not all girls like dresses. Lots of girls like short hair. You guys are awesome parents, keep raising them just like you are. ❤❤❤❤
I support you!! THREE!!❤
Aaaaw! Totally support you , BEAUTIFUL family! #QueenE
Love you both and the girls.
Im 77 and i can remember one Christmas i asked for a toy guns in a bolster but i got a doll i cried all day i was such a tomboy
I have watched since you started your journey for the beautiful girls. I am so glad that you encourage these children have a voice in their body looks. I completely agree with the statement you made about THEIR BODY THEIR CHOICE. I have children who know they are in charge of their bodies. They can say no if they don't want a hug from someone.
Do i have a few rules. No tattoos or facial piercing till 16. Otherwise they wear what they want and have hair their own way.
I understand so well what you both say and mean❤
I am going to agree with you, we as a country are going backwards on every kind of equality, I am 60 and when I was young no one really cared what you identified as tbh. Let people be people, not sure how it impacts anyone else.
There is so much propaganda on grooming these days, people just can not think for themselves anymore sadly. You always sound like great parents to me, keep doing what you do, lucky girls.
This country is going backwards. There is more racism than ever!! I am a conservative and have no problem with a child wearing whatever they want. I have no problem with people being who they are, but grooming is wrong and forcing stuff on people is wrong. There is nothing wrong with you guys, your girls, or the way you're raising them. Letting Queen E wear what she wants is not grooming. You're doing a wonderful job!❤.
Their prom pic is hilarious 😂😂😂🤣
“god forbid a FIIIVE year old”😅 honestly I love how you guys are handling it! Both Everest’s desire to wear a suit and the silly comments
Everest, you are beautiful!!! Keep being you.
I love the Lord. And I would allow you both to raise my 20 & 16 year old daughters. You both are amazing! ❤
You are both magnificent ❤
Just so everyone knows, some of us very cisgendered women don't like to wear dresses - don't ever wear dresses. Thanks. 😁 And, BTW, so what if Queenie does want to be different than her sister! It's evolution! That's what all living things do and how they maximize their resources. I teach 4-6 year-olds, and if they get to school with clothes on we are happy. When they start choosing their own clothes and activities, there is so much experimentation that is absolutely essential to their development! I LOVE THIS! Thanks for letting your treasures be who they are and give them an internal moral code of compassion and self-knowledge and grace.
It’s sad that people feel the need to comment negatively. It’s hard to be a video creator specially as parents. Be thankful that channels like this exist for your entertainment and education! Why can’t people leave it there??
I always thought queen E was more shy and though that still may be true you can visibly see her personality through photos now. She's so much more comfortable. I was very much queen E as a child and am very fortunate I was allowed to wear what I liked. It gave me the confidence to wear what I liked and til this day I am still like that.
So sorry people are so mean. Love both girls style and they both radiate confidence. ❤❤❤
Your daughters are beautiful just the way they are. I loved seeing queen E in a suit. I wish I had the option to wear a suit as a kid. You guys are awesome.
It’s so insane how people are! My now 7 yr old saw a pic of Jada Pinket Smith about a year or so ago and she was in awe of her beauty and she asked if she can shave her head like her. I told her that I didn’t think that shaving would be a good idea because we are very fair skinned and that her head may get sunburnt. We did go to the barber shop and they gave her a super cute very very short hair cut and she looked ADORABLE!
What surprised me is that it wasn’t strangers who commented on her new appearance… it was family!!! They all felt the need to ask why I would let her cut her hair and look like a boy. I turned on my diva switch and let them know that you don’t have to have long hair to be feminine and be beautiful! I am teaching her to go with whatever she wants and not give 2 f’s about what other people have to say because it’s her body and not theirs.
It’s so frustrating!
I got the same kind of feedback when I let my sons hair to grow out when he was a toddler. He had beautiful blonde curly hair. He was very rugged and always dirty and how he could be confused as a girl beats me! He did end up requesting that it be cut so we did.
I feel ya! Keep doing what you do and know that you’re girls are going to be amazing because you’re allowing them to be.
Also… just wanted to add… my daughter wore the pinkest fairy dresses and tiaras with her short hair cut.
First off I love you guys, second I’m kinda glad I missed the live cause I may have swore lol what gives the people right to think they have a right to comment on how Queen E dresses, they are their own person and anybody that follows/watches you regularly will know that your beautiful daughters are so completely different, have their own minds etc. Even though they are twins doesn’t mean they’re gonna be the same!
My four year old grandson has a dolly & pram which he pushes around the grocery store and favourite colour is red or ‘rainbow’, he loves dinosaurs, cars, he is a child just like your queens!
Again love you guys, sending love and hugs your way ❤️❤️❤️
Trolls are trolls and Internet trolls are the worst. They won't stop because they get their energy from attacking others. I love how you defend your daughters! But does it stop the trolls? Doubt it. Anyway: never, ever stop being who you are, you are amazing parents. I'm a 66 year young grandma, and I love following your Queens growing up! Don't let the internet idiots ruin your family peace and happiness ✨❤✨
They are children. If she loved her suit and felt pretty, that's all that matters. My 4 year doesn't like dresses either. Both girls are beautiful. We have watched since before they we're born. We send the hair bows. 😊
I had a pixie cut as a kid it was my moms choice not mine I hated it. So with that being said I love that you are rolling with the flow good job dads
LovelyOnes!!!! Always!!!! Lovely Family!!!! Always!!!!
All grooming your children to be a certain way is going to do is cause them to have resentment when they grow up. Yes my daughter did things that the kids at school made fun of like when she wore tight but then also wore socks over them, she thought she looked good and didn't care what they said, you have to pick your battles with your kids and it just wasn't worth the battle it wasn't hurting anything now she's 35 years old I still think she dresses a little bit out there but she's happy and her husband loves her. You're giving them good childhood memories and that's what's important.
First and foremost.... ya'll are amazing parents! I've followed your journey with ya'll .. The Queens are beautiful and well adjusted. Some girls are girlie and some are tom boys! What the heck they are 5. Those sweet girls are so happy ! I adore them! Never doubt that you guys are amazing parents !!!! We love ya'll!
Love your girls personality is coming out. Sorry people are freaking out about a short haircut and a suit
You guys are raising two beautiful little girls that are free to make choices they like
Hey beautiful family I've watched your videos since before the girls were born and I see you as a family of love and growth and teaching your parenting styles are beautiful and accepting and I'm so proud of you guys the queens are beautiful and Everest is so lucky to have you as her parents ❤️ love you Mcfamily love Celeste 3 oh ps I don't like dresses either lol you go girl 🎉😊
I have a little boy. 19 months old. I can’t even begin to imagine not letting him get a pink glittery shirt at a store if he so chooses to pick it out. These are kids! They can choose how they want to express themselves. A week, month, year down the line they will like something completely different and again that is OKAY!
her life journey is hers. she is discovering who she is. and whoever she is, is JUST FINE, regardless. and all of this for CLOTHING? straights are scared that she might be a trans child, that's the real issue that has them acting as they do. and even if she turns out to be trans, or like i said, WHOEVER she becomes, so what? maybe its just a preference, nothing more. look at shiloh pitt, she wanted to be called 'john' for years and wore suits, now she's in dresses and makeup and is a killer dancer. does anyone care?? y'all are are stellar parents. you are doing what is right. to deny her this simple thing would be abusive to her self esteem. warm hugs.
regardless of whether or not it’s a phase, it’s important to let kids figure out who they are for themselves! plenty of girls wear clothing that was made with boys in mind, that doesn’t mean anything! i wore a lot of boy clothes as a kid, and i’m not trans. i do know that i have parents who love me unconditionally, though! ❤
wow all i could think of saying people are unreal let kids be kids for god sake kids like to play dress up all the time back in my day at that age my parents always let us wear what we want i wore a bathing suit under my winter coat once to go to school lol your both great dads i watched from before the girls where born your a great family keep up the great work
Yall are great parents I don't see yall pushing your kids be the way yall want yall let them be who they are and were what they feel comfortable I here kids killing them self because they think they can't be who they want to either by way their dress and etc. I am 110 percent on yall side don't let the haters stop the way yall raise your kids because yall are great parents and yall show them so much love and want do things with them this world is crazy for judgeing but they don't juudge or do good this like yall do for your children I have seen some females who are straight and had a suite on for prom just to be different because they don't like dresses and they are still beautiful in the suite people need mind their own business and worry more about them and their families sorry for saying how I felt
