Dads can have children of all ages, even adult children. I see dad jokes as something that produces a groan but also a chuckle, heavily reliant on puns and broken expectations, not something that is directed at little children, but maybe not raunchy for the sake of shock value. That would be an uncle joke.
I'm happy to see profanity, sex as a topic, etc included.
Thanks for re-evaluating your decision.
