Not that he was a bad dad or anything! By his own measure, he was a great dad. He was loving, but not smothering. Strict, but not punitive. Sure, he missed a few school recitals and birthdays due to royal duties, but he always made sure to send a cardboard cut-out in his place. It even had pre-recorded voice lines! The ones his father had sent to his buckball games hadn't done that!
