Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. This year it falls on June 21.
Almost every president of the United States has had children.
Photos show these leaders doting on their kids just like regular dads.

James Polk is the only president who didn't have any children, either biological or adopted. Every other president has had at least one child or adopted child.

Snapshots of presidents sharing sweet moments with their child or celebrating an important milestone in their lives show how they are just like normal dads.
