I am a mom, but used to sometimes carry my oldest by her feet, in one hand, squirming like a fish, when she had a fit somewhere out in the world when she was toddler age. The change of perspective seemed to help. That kid also ended up being an acrobat.

My brother always held babies so awkwardly, even his own, it was funny.

My two year old finds being held up by the feet funny so this will sometimes literally end a tantrum with laughter.

As a dad of a newborn, they are not really that fragile. When changing their diapers I just use one hand to hold one leg to lift up. I asked a doctor about this, and he said it's no problem She does not care, she has a fun time with me switching diapers. Can't do it when shes older though.

Just protect their necks and head, besides that they are robust.

Even their necks are wild.

The writer and ex-doctor Adam Kay wrote in his book "This is Going to Hurt", about his time in the maternity ward of an NHS hospital in the 2000s, that he would find it funny, visiting friends and their new kids and his friends reminding him to support the neck and stuff, when in the past he has had forceps around the head of a child and has leaned back with his full weight trying to assist in the removal of a child trapped in the birth canal, and both baby and mother coming out of it completely fine.

There is some trauma associated with that type of forceps extraction. There’s definitely some damage to the baby’s skull and mother’s vaginal canal. However most of the time there will be no long term issues. It’s only used if the birth is going poorly.

Yeah, the whole experience is a relatively traumatic one, the idea of bringing metal implements to bear probably means the alternative is worse, but part of expertise is in weighing options and risks.

As an aside, I believe Sylvester Stallone's speech is due to nerve damage from a forceps incident at birth.

Meanwhile, a wolf or cat does this and it's "natural."

What's up with the door? Ah, generated I guess...

Are dads like this even?

Possibly, but there's a weird line across his shirt too in the same place. It reminds me of a bad panorama but that wouldn't make sense here since it's vertical.

Kids put parents in boxes. Kid in picture probably giggles like crazy when dad does this. If a kid wants to ride her little tykes bike down her little tykes slide, she’s much more likely to try it first with one parent over the other.
