How were things at the beginning of Luffy's parenting adventure? I imagine it's not easy to take care of a young child when you're a pirate also Luffy's chaotic nature wouldn't help the case.
Have a nice day!
I had an ask ages ago about how Luffy found (Name) when he was stranded from the crew. I can't find the post now, so I'll tell you the gist of my original concept.
So for one reason or another, Luffy gets separated from the Sunny, and for about a week, he's hanging out on some random island. The population is small, so Luffy isn't bothered very much. It almost feels like his childhood home.
Luffy finds a small child, barely a year old, during that week. They've obviously been lost or abandoned. Luffy doesn't really know what to do with them, but he does know he can't let just leave the child to die. So he brings them to the village, looking for someone to take this kid. One woman offers to help briefly take care of (Name), but she won't keep them for one reason or another. Again leaving Luffy stuck with this baby.
When the crew gets to Luffy, he's just got this tiny child. The original plan was to find someone to take care of (Name), but of course, Luffy gets attached. One morning on the Sunny, Luffy declares himself (Name)'s father. The crew is not stoked, but Luffy is persistent, so (Name) stays.
It's difficult because Luffy does not know the first thing about kids. But he was raised by bandits and turned out great, so pirates must be fine.
Robin, Jinbe, Franky, and Brook do a lot of the heavy lifting at first when it comes to this kid. Robin is the one who helps Luffy the most, though. She's patient but stern when it comes to his responsibilities.
Luffy finds that being a dad is fun, and if he needs help, there's more than enough extra hands and eyes. The only other problem really is Zoro.
Despite how good Zoro is at caring for kids, he wasn't really ready to be a parent. Sure, he didn't outright claim to be (Name)'s dad, but his beloved adopted a small child. What was he supposed to do with that? Zoro is stand-offish for a while but does eventually warm up to (Name) and embraces the dad role.
When their older, (Name) will start calling Zoro "Pop."

How would Luffy react if his kid wanted to leave him and their crew? Luffy's kid wants to leave because they think if they stay they'll never be able to find their place in the world/find their purpose in life.
Have a nice week!

-The early morning chill and sea salt spraying the air made it the perfect day to go sailing. Luffy watched (Name) gazing at the horizon, the morning sun warming their skin. His heart ached with bittersweet love. The captain flexed his fingers, longing for Zoro to slip his hand into Luffy's open palm, yet his partner was still fast asleep.
-Luffy clapped (Name) on the shoulder, making them jump. "Dad!" (Name) clutched their chest, "You've gotten quiet."
-Luffy offered them a grin. When (Name) smiled back, Luffy leaned against the railing. "I've got something for you," Luffy said, shoving his hand into his coat pocket.
-(Name) watched, amused as their dad dug around in his pockets, muttering a few swears. After a sigh of relief, Luffy held out a scrap of paper. "A Vivre card," Luffy smiled, "In case you ever want to come home."
-(Name)'s breath hitched. "Dad," they murmured; doubt and ache grew in their chest at sight. (Name) hadn't seen such sentiment from their father. He was always lighthearted, full of jokes and mischief; these rare tender displays always caught (Name) by surprise.
-When (Name) snatched up the piece of paper and held it to their chest, Luffy chuckled. "Zoro and Robin have one too, in case something happens," Luffy said before tucking his own Vivre card behind the red ribbon of his hat.
-(Name) carefully put the paper somewhere safe, and when they looked back, Luffy was looking over at the horizon. "I'm sure you'll want to be leaving soon," he murmured; an island came into view.
-"Yeah. I think that would be best," (Name) murmured, not trusting their own voice. Luffy let out a deep sigh and swallowed hard. He yanked them into a hug, just like he did when (Name) first came back to him. If Luffy could squeeze love into someone, he would have pressed every ounce of love into his child in that one single moment.
-"What if I can't do this?" (Name) asked, gripping their father's coat. They could feel the soft rumble in his chest when Luffy said, "Don't be ridiculous. You're my kid, ain't ya'? You'll be just fine."
-Luffy gave them one final good squeeze before letting them go. "You can always come home. It doesn't matter if you're gone, thirty minutes, days, or years. I'll be waiting for you."
-(Name) wiped the tears away from their eyes. "Thanks, Dad," they sniffled. Luffy put on a big smile to keep himself from succumbing to the safe fate. "Come on, kiddo," Luffy tugged on their arm, "Let's go wake your dad up for breakfast."
How would Sanji or/and Luffy react after hearing his kid call him 'dad' for the first time?
Have a nice day!
-Luffy would smile a big toothy grin at the sound, but he would probably breeze on past it. He'd just continue on with the conversation while feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Maybe later, he'd mention it to one of his crewmates while talking about how excited he is that (Name) is really starting to grow on him.
-Sanji is crying. It's not great big tears, but he's undoubtedly turning away so he can wipe his eyes. He's grateful no else saw that. Zoro would make fun of him for years over it. Sanji might give (Name) a kiss on the cheek or hug them.
Yo, Liv! (Name) being a little asshole is amazing hah. What are the other things that this kid did that were dangerous/reckless? Were there any serious problems because of that?
In the words of @deleted-1-800, (Name) is a little ankle biter.

-When (Name) was four or five, Zoro brought them up to the crows nest. Originally they were in one of those little cloth baby pouches, but when Zoro inevitably fell asleep, (Name) squirmed out of the pouch. The child proceeded to drop out of the crows nest. Luckily Robin was having tea on the deck with Jinbe and saw (Name) out of the corner of her eye. She quickly catches them and brings them back down to the deck.
-Zoro got in trouble that day.
-A significant issue was what to do with (Name) during combat. They wanted to help out, but they were also five. At first, Luffy thought it would be a good idea to strap (Name) to himself or to Zoro so that they could protect their child. However, after two minutes of critical thought, Luffy realized that that would not work.
-Saddling (Name) with Nami and Usopp was the better option. Those two were perfect for keeping (Name) out of danger. Franky thought he could build them a tiny suit of armor to help, but that still meant (Name) would actually be in combat.
-So, the solution all ten adults agreed to was stashing (Name) in Franky's baby-proofed workshop. It's below deck and near the docking bay, so (Name) could make an escape on the Mini Merry if need be.
-Franky (with Robin's help) set up some stuff for (Name) to do in his workshop so that they would be safe but entertained. Franky made a pop-up pillow fort with blankets and plushies, some age-appropriate books, Legos, and coloring books.
-Then, of course, getting killed in combat at age nine was also not great.
Your headcanons with (Name) the legendary ankle-biter are amazing. Their silly antics make me smile :}
Can I ask for (Name) and Robin interactions?

Robin took on much of (Name)’s education. She primarily taught them to read and write; however, as a small child, (Name) had a unique vocabulary. (Name) used lots of twenty-five-cent words that didn’t fit in the sentences.
(Name): That’s inconceivable.
Nami: You keep saying that word; I do not think it means what you think it means.
Robin also taught (Name) her dark sense of humor. I can only imagine the absolute horror on Ussop’s face when (Name) tries to predict the day of his death. Aunt Robin is thoroughly delighted at these antics and is a little disappointed when (Name) eventually grows out of it.
Something sweet, I think (Name), and Robin due is having tea together. Robin will read to (Name) or have them read to her, or sometimes they just talk. Sometimes Franky joins in.

How old was Luffy's kid be when they got their first bounty poster?
Missing the other parts? Check out The Dadverse!
~~
I imagine that (Name) got their first Wanted Poster around age ten or eleven. The World Government wasn't wholly sure who (Name) was or if (Name) was a hostage at first. Report after report eventually tips off the Marines about (Name) 's relationship with Luffy. The WG is not pleased in the slightest. Luffy is the guy at the top of their shit-list, so any child of his is also at the top of their shit list. (Name)' s bounty is not outstandingly high, but such an innocent-looking face on a poster surely catches the public's attention. Thanks to Luffy's admirers (Name) is well protected, and the Marines don't usually catch a whiff of the kid unless they make themselves known.
