Wait, since when did he even have a job? Didn’t he collect disability and repair old landmines as a paying hobby?Okay, maybe he picked up something since the divorce, but still.Y’know, I’m not a parent, and I get that there are difficulties that someone outside that position will never understand. I know.But it sounds like he just doesn’t want to bother taking his kids to stuff, and has the audacity to make promises that he should know by now he won’t keep. (Once is an accident. Twice is unlucky. Three times is a pattern, and this man fails at life.)
Know a couple guys like the dad… One, I think, is a sadist who enjoys inflicting pain. The other I regard as a well-intentioned incompetent who means well but is unable to follow through on his promises.

So far Dad’s crushed concert-going, ice capades, and now wrestling. What will these kids do for entertainment? Video games?

I hope this goes into next week, because it’s a pretty bleak ending.

Dissapointment builds character, I’ve heard. And sometimes leads to a surprise ending.

Even if someone else takes them, Kevin’s feelings for his father have been irrevocably damaged. Sad.

Having a “No Show Dad” has to hurt. But Kyle being right just adds salt to the wound.

The look on Miles’ face is one of compassion; a true friend. This is such a great strip!!!
