Raul’s father was reported lost at sea soon after his son was born. When he turned thirteen, Raul set out to sea himself, determined to bring his father home.
After searching for many years, he found his father on a tropical island in the South Pacific. Despite his son’s pleading, the old man refused to leave.

Morgan Durante always dreaded reading the morning paper. The headlines were of the normally sensationalist variety, with one important caveat: this edition of the news only covered Morgan and his life.
Typical headlines read, “Durante wastes another day of worthless life at meaningless job,” and “Father does awful job parenting his gifted child.” The people quoted were usually his wife or an “Unnamed source with intimate knowledge of the Durante family.”
Morgan would have liked to stop subscribing, but it was written by his ten-year-old daughter and his wife insisted they encourage her talent. Besides, the reporting was always accurate.

A Loving Husband And Father
by thegooddoctor in 100 Words
He used to be a loving husband and father, a fact so known it was written on his tombstone. His wife knew every night as he was loving her. Once, he loved her so hard she hurt and asked him to love a little less.
He had more to give so he loved Stephanie when her husband’s love had dried up.
He stopped when he disciplined his daughter, who had been such a soft-skinned baby and now was a naughty teenager. That night he spanked her, then loved her along and inside her skin.
Stephanie stopped his loving heart forever.
