How could a father do any less?
The only thing that he needs to do less of is talking. Otherwise, every other father out there must feel the same way.
Well, except for Michael Dukakis, who said during one of the '88 debates that he would've stood around with his thumb in some orifice while his wife was raped...and they never got around to asking a question about his kids. If the stupid tank commercial didn't end that race, this response did. But he's not normal, and the father in this case most definitely IS.
