THE DADDY VOICE - Indulgence

Indulgence is the anti-gravity. Too much for you and the kids quickly and unhappily fall to earth, feeling neglected. Too much for them and a dad descends heavily to ground (or even below, depending on the weight of the spoilage), possibly broke but certainly having to deal with bratty kinder. Put another way, indulgence is a fulcrum for the pleasure seesaw.
