Maybe the definition of a real father is someone who accepts their child for who they are, despite their faults or how far they've strayed from the path of the person you hoped they'd become.

About This Quote

This quote is saying that there are no perfect fathers. A father can love his child regardless of whether he has done wrong or has chosen the wrong path. This idea is about the role of a father, not to be confused with the definition of fathers. The word father does not mean exactly what you might think it means.

The term can mean different things in different contexts. Here, it means the same thing as "parent."
