Flat Daddies











A.k.a. "flat daddies," some military families are purchasing these life-size replicas (from the torso up) of soldiers who have missed birthday parties and soccer games while deployed in Iraq or Afghanistan. According to the NY Times, some families prop up "flat daddy" at the dinner table and the playground. This photo struck me as just so ridiculous, so sad. Such a sign of the times.
