Watching the Northern Trust Open on CBS.
I've seen this commercial a few times. A father is strapping his golf clubs tenderly into his car, while his wife and little daughter watch.
It's not funny - how many men feel that way about their clubs as opposed to their kids? Probably quite a few.
There's a similar commercial - guy wants to send his golf clubs but wants a test run first - his wife's wedding dress and his "cold fusion" invention. Yes, in a sense it's "over the top" so you know it's supposed to be funny, but it just isn't.
Many a woman in a loveless marriage has fallen foul of the idea that if she could just present her husband with a child - preferably a son - that would cure the marriage, and of course it never does. All it does is drive them further apart because woman concentrates all her love on the child, man feels neglected and goes and finds himself a mistress.
If husband and wife aren't well-matched to begin with, having a child is just a bad idea.
