A Father to Be, a Father to a Child

There's something a little bit ediple here, that his mother is withholding and joan isn't. He wants yet to be babied by her. And he doesnt on to have to provide for her. But at the same time, there are many children in the story, and he seems to look at children fondly. So do we think he'slear anything about fatheray? i don't think so.
