25 reasons why Ben Wyatt from Parks and Recreation is the best

20. Dad Ben

When Leslie and Ben found out they were having kids, Ben lost his mind. Mainly because they found out that they were having triplets and he instantly worried about money.

But really, it ended up being sweet seeing Ben as a dad. We didn’t get to see it as much as we would have liked, because both Amy and Adam have kids and didn’t really want to work with kids on set, but still we got a few nice moments.

When Ben and Leslie are trying to figure out who can run for governor, we got to see their kids as teenagers. And they are definitely Ben and Leslie’s children! The two have three children and each were perfectly cast to be just like Ben and Leslie.

Really it was just a nice things for fans. We’ve learned of Ben’s weird childhood and Leslie’s lack of a father and it was just a nice touch for them. We just wanted Ben and Leslie to be as happy as they could possibly be and the show did a great job of reflecting that.

After all, the show did give us this perfect couple and getting Dad Ben is just part of the perks.
