I guess they don’t feature guys like this in the commercials.

I guess I don’t see how this guy is a bad dad… It’s his photo for a dating site. This would say to me that he puts his kid before a potential relationship. I’m pretty sure being a single dad doesn’t make you a bad parent… Maybe I’m missing something.

He is banking on the skanks that think a guy with a baby is worth sleeping with. After all, he has a baby with him he must be such a good provider. I would never put a picture of my child on a dating site.

This man is a genius (though his photography skills are somewhat lacking). He knows his market and how to work it. Yes, many panties were moistened that day.

It’s bad parenting because he’s putting pictures with his kid out on a site where he doesn’t know the people. Someone posing as an interested woman could actually be a sexual predator or a crazy person that want to kidnap a child. A dating site is no place for pictures of your children.

Maybe the mom left or passed away and he wants to make sure women know upfront that he has a baby. I agree it could have been a nicer pic. with a shirt on.

its also possible the mom is still in the picture and still with the dad. men do do shady things like that ya know

I have to disagree… I don’t see how this picture makes him a “bad” parent. Sure, maybe he should have left the child out of it due to the nature of what the picture was being used for, however, I do agree that maybe he’s putting it out there up front that he has a child. I don’t see how that is wrong. I’d like to know who makes the rules and guidelines of what is considered a “bad” parent? Because this picture by far does not scream bad parenting. It’s not like he was holding his junk in one hand and his child in the other, that would make him a bad parent. I really think that this site needs to re-evaluate what they classify as “bad” parenting.

There are other ways to let people know you have a child on a dating website. Say, write it in your “about me” part. You don’t have to put your child out there for all to see. It’s not like putting pictures of your kid on facebook, where you know everyone. These are complete strangers he’s trying to show his kid off to. It’s not the worst parenting ever, but I still think it’s not safe.

I’m sorry, but most people don’t actually keep just real friends on FB – they keep thousands of people they don’t know on there, like collections.

I agree, though, keep the baby out of your dating pic. You never know what creepers are looking for just that.

Im sorry, but how is it ANY different than putting pictures of you and your kid on facebook, or myspace. People you dont know see those all of the time.
