If You Were a Dad

IF YOU WERE... A DAD

If you were a Dad, would you take a million pics

To show the whole wide world

And teach your children iPhone tricks,

The kind that fosters adoration,

Or would you teach them how to love

And subdue their narcissistic inclination

Without them noticing or knowing?

If you were a Dad, would you be tolerant and kind,

A parent with the presence of mind

To act when NO is called for?

When a daughter's disappointment may seem cruel

Like a hidden candy store,

Much harder than a simple yes that lures the average fool?

Tell me, 

What kind of father would you be?
