A dad made a bold move by approaching the guys talking to his daughter and friend while on vacation, leading TikTokers to wish they had someone to look after them as he did.
Going on vacation with your family often brings memories worth a lifetime. But, when one dad saw his daughter being chatted up by a group of boys her age, he was ready to put an immediate stop to what was to come.
In a TikTok shared by Leah, her dad could be seen marching up to his daughter, standing with her gal pal, and intimidatingly putting his arms around the two guys.
Before he even approached the group of talkative teens, the girl that Leah’s sister was standing with backed up with a smirk, seemingly knowing what would happen.
The two girls then laughed it off, but not before Leah’s sister put her hands over her head in embarrassment. The boys, however, kept their composure, respectfully reacting to the father.
“My favorite animal is my dad seeing boys talk to my little sister on vacation,” Leah described in the clip, boasting over 35M views.
Though it’s unknown what the father said to the two guys, many viewers came up with what they thought he might have quipped.
“‘Well hello there boys, what are we talking about?’” wrote one.

“‘I’ve been to jail and not afraid to go back,’” said another.
Others in the comments applauded the dad for his bold yet affirmative move.
“The hands on shoulders applying light but firm pressure,” wrote one.
“I love seeing fathers love their daughters enough to protect them,” added another.
Leah even called her dad an “icon” for paying no mind to how the encounter might have affected her sister.
The TikToker’s vacation story isn’t the only trending family getaway video on the Internet. In May, a talking baby went utterly viral after they answered “Me!” to their parents asking, “Who wants to go to the Four Seasons Orlando?”
And in June, newlyweds went viral for wearing clothes from the resort they stayed at, as their luggage was lost before their plane landed.
