my dad always hesitate

My dad has some problem in his teeth, so he can’t eat hard food. Today he brought kachchi biriany for iftar. But in iftar he found mutton isn’t soft enough (for him) to eat. He was very disappointed, I was right behind him. I gave him massed potato fry (aalur chop) which is soft, but he was shouting, no no. I had to force him to take, and finally he took half of it. He always hesitates to take food from his child. May be all parents are like that. They give good food to their children; never want to take from them….
