There’s an Indian family with a total of 181 members, and 89 of them are children of the same father. While our families may not be that huge and we’re not out there striving to beat Guinness World Records, we still have our significant others and our relatives at the top of our hearts and minds.

Here at Bright Side, we are sure that money can’t buy you a happy family, and today we’ve collected 19 vivid examples of how people try to go above and beyond just to make their own families happy. Spoiler alert: sometimes they even need to sacrifice their appearance a little bit.
