Great way to keep Pasquale’s spirit up. It is so easy for a parent to dominate a sport, that it ruins any fun. And the kid feels depressed, and decides “why even try, I can’t do it anyway”.
It looks like Jimbo is the one that ALMOST did it right and needs to work on his aim. In the second pannel , Pasquale would have need a 4ft arm to catch it (he is already jumping high)
Excellent support, Dad! Get really tired of these people who tell a five-or-six year-old, “That’s not good enough. You can do better.” The kid’s LEARNING, for gawd’s sake!
Playing catch with young children is really hard. If you throw it close enough so they have a chance at catching it you risk hitting them. I started my sons with Nerf balls.

If nothing else, this looks like a wonderful father-son bonding episode!

I just wish my father could have been around when I was younger. Cancer took him early in my life…

Almost doesn’t count, except for horseshoes and hand grenades.
