    1. 1. Fa Zhou giving Mulan a pep talk

After Mulan botches her appointment with the village matchmaker, it’s dad Fa Zhou that lifts her spirits with a poetic pep talk about late-blooming flowers. The man is a retired war hero and martial arts master, but the way he gingerly places the floral pin into his daughter’s hair shows just how doting his heart is.

    1. 2. Mufasa telling Simba that the kings of the past are watching over him

Mufasa’s lesson for Simba about the starry skies and spiritual guardians is exactly the kind of loving guidance his cub needed in that moment—and a message that sticks with him well into adulthood. It’s peak parenting, even for a father as full of wisdom as Mufasa.

    1. 3. Bob Parr calling his family “his greatest adventure”

Fighting crime is a family affair by the end of The Incredibles, when Bob (aka Mr. Incredible) finally realizes there’s no greater prize than his wife and kids, dubbing them his “greatest adventure” as they escape Syndrome’s containment unit.

    1. 4. King Triton granting Ariel’s wish to become a human

Love for their kids and a primal drive to keep them safe can make parents do crazy things (like, say, denying them their heart’s greatest desire). Luckily, King Triton comes to his senses by the end of The Little Mermaid and uses his powers for the good of his youngest daughter.

    1. 5. Marlin promising to protect Nemo

Finding Nemo opens with some serious heartbreak, as a giant barracuda wreaks havoc on Marlin’s family. But when he wakes up from the ordeal to find a single surviving egg and vows to take care of Nemo above all? Well, cue the waterworks.

    1. 6. King Fergus ditching gender roles

What’s not to love about King Fergus? By teaching Merida how to ride a horse, defend herself and shoot a bow and arrow better than any boy around, he’s not just teaching her how to become an independent Disney Princess; he’s also honoring who she is—not trying to change her.

    1. 7. Geppetto witnessing Pinocchio becoming a real boy

This man wanted to be a father so bad that he carved a child out of wood, so excuse us if we shed a tear (or more) at Geppetto’s elation the moment Pinocchio becomes a “real boy.” Not to mention the exhaustive search for his son and extensive battle with the whale, Monstro!

    1. 8. Maurice risking public humiliation to help his daughter

The way Maurice bursts into the town pub after escaping the Beast’s castle—and stands his ground as Gaston and other partygoers essentially call him crazy to his face—is every parent who’s ever advocated for their children in moments of adversity.

    1. 9. James giving Tiana words of wisdom

What is it about good dads always knowing exactly what to say? Encouraging Tiana to wish on a star, James balances his daughter’s aspirational tendencies with some grounding (and sage) advice on hard work being the key to success.

    1. 10. Goofy’s entire character arc in A Goofy Movie

Every well-meaning parent fumbles every so often, and Goofy has plenty of gaffes. But he’s also caring and supportive of Max’s dreams, and open about his feelings. (Nothing beats a Goofy heart-to-heart!) For such a quirky character, he’s also self-aware of his own shortcomings—like his tendency to be a tad overbearing—and always trying to do better.
