情和理

The father figure missed her daughter's entire point.  The daughter is crying out with bleeding heart for help and begging for understanding. The father still blindly demands this and demands that, show me this and show me that, explain this and explain that. He never once acknowledge her hurt.

The daughter begs for 情，the father demands 理。
