37 Quotes About Stepfathers To Remind You Family Isn't Defined By DNA

As former president Barack Obama once said, "Any fool can have a child. That doesn't make you father." Being a dad has nothing to do with blood and biology, and you don't have to share DNA with someone to love them. Even if you already have a loving biological father, a stepdad can serve as a bonus adult who can raise you, nurture you, and teach you important life lessons along the way. So it's hardly surprising that some of the best Father's Day quotes include sweet quotes about stepdads, and sharing one (or more!) of those quotes with the stepfather in your life can help him know just how much you love and appreciate him.

Of course, wonderful stepfathers should be appreciated every day of the year, not just on Father's Day. However, if you're looking to show your bonus dad just how much you care on June 20 this year, then there are plenty of ways to do so. You can get him a special Father's Day gift for stepdads, or you can spoil him with a decadent Father's Day brunch. You can also plan a fun Father's Day activity for the two of you to do together (while keeping the ongoing COVID-19 crisis in mind). And if you're not sure what to write in your Father's Day card for your stepdad, then a great quote is the way to go.

On Father's Day (and heck, all the days of the year), share these quotes with the bonus dad in your life to make him feel loved and seen.
