    Oh, bless this guy!
    My father was a single parent and it wasn't always easy for him since he was battling depression. He was always in and out of jobs but he still managed to raise me the best he could. I only saw my mother 1-2 times a year so those times I needed her, he filled those shoes. When I became depressed myself, he knew how to handle it. He taught me so many helpful skills and also taught me how to be compassionate towards others. I love him so much.

      @@rex_tonjim Yes, she is! I have spent the past 4 yrs repairing my relationship with her. It’s been really rocky because for a long time she couldn’t quite understand what mental illness was seeing that she was raised in Japan and I was raised in America. There is a stigma against it there. We are now pretty much on the same page and it’s great. And my dad, well, he is cool as always.

      Maybe they thought there could be improvements. Disliking doesn't mean you dislike the people in the video, it means you dislike the production. I didn't dislike, but I can see how there could be stylistic differences for some people. I personally didn't care for the country music, and I thought the end of his day was rushed, we didn't see him doing chores or tucking her into bed, etc. His day looked pretty easy, which is not the desired point of the video. Single parents have a lot to do, and that message wasn't conveyed as clearly as some other channel's.

    *If you like this story you will love the Japanese drama “Dad's Lunch Box” It’s based on a true story. The mom leaves them and he becomes a single dad and starts making the daughter’s bento🍱*
    *This film was inspired by a real-life story of a Japanese father who for the three years his daughter spent at high school prepared daily bento lunch boxes for her leading to delicious, interesting or* *offbeat creations. In all cases, he put an effort into equipping his daughter with sustenance for school.*
    *In the beginning his Bentos are terrible so he went online to get help. By the end of her high school years he was great at it and she wasn’t embarrassed about them anymore. It’s a tearjerker for more reasons than one.*

    Wow! He's doing very well. It's hard to be a single parent, whether you're a man or a woman in this situation. He will deal with more complicated issues in the future. I wish him health and a lot of courage👌❤️
