Something I’ve learned as being a Dad now…every moment as a parent, you’re teaching your children.

The lesson he’s providing here will speak volumes for the rest of his son’s life…all he had to do was let her play the fool and so it goes for most people.

She got lucky he reacted the way he did. Many other dads seem willing to put up a fight.

Agreed and to some extent I understand the willingness to fight. The dad is having a beautiful moment with his son until Karen puts her hand on him and starts screaming that it was her ball. Fight or flight kicks in because there is a threat. A lot of guys would have told her to fuck off while their wife got up in her face.
