When You Meet My Dad

Ask him if he spends time with his kids
Ask him if he wishes he had siblings
Ask him about the Vietnam War
Ask him if it was hard getting into America
Ask him if it was harsh getting a job
Ask him if he misses his mom and dad
Ask him how his mom died when he was 7 months old
Ask him if he saw his dad’s life fade away in front of him
Ask him what he thought
Ask him if he’s okay
