Dresses and twirls: Dad and son make headlines with 'Let It Go' dance
Updated | By Justin Paul James
A father is being praised on social media for his parenting skills after he danced with his son to a popular song - all while donning matching dresses.
Disney's 2013 movie 'Frozen' was a massive hit with people of all ages. The theme tune, 'Let It Go', was arguably an even bigger hit than the movie itself, with the song destroying charts around the world.

Ørjan Burøe, a Norwegian comedian, has a four-year-old son named Dexter who is obsessed with Elsa and her friends from the hit film. Being the amazing dad that he is, he decided to go out and buy the famous blue Elsa dress for him and his son, and proceeded to dance in his living room to 'Let It Go'.
Burøe took to his Facebook page to share the video, captioning it: "mom is gone, no stress💞". It has received over 66-million views at the time of writing.
Their performance turned heads around the world, and even caught the attention of Kristen Bell, who played the part of Anna in the film. She shared the video and captioned her tweet: "Immediate. Tears. Everywhere. #mykindaguy"

Burøe is being hailed as 'Parent of the Year' by many. He has also been praised for not allowing his son to be confined to a gender role, and also for allowing his son to freely express himself.
Take a look at some of the comments below:
We asked Jane to share her thoughts on the performance.
"I so love and adore this video. Yay for fun and togetherness, which is not underpinned or worried about what people will say or think. Rock on!" she said with a big smile on her face.

We went through the comments to see if the social media trolls were present, and we're proud to say that none could be found. The world had nothing but love for this dad, who is sending out a strong message to parents to allow your kids to be who they want to be - even if it goes against what society deems acceptable.
