Description

Here's the transcription of the comic text:

Panel 1: Child: "Daddy, what do you want me to be when I grow up?" Dad: "I can't tell you."

Panel 2: Child: "Because you don't know?" Dad: "Oh, not at all."

Panel 3: Dad: "I imagine all sorts of things you could be, that would make me happy." Child: "But I can't tell you."

Panel 4: Dad: "I have to hide my dreams for you, because my dreams are heavy and yours are light. And I don't want to crush them like a clumsy giant."

Panel 5: Child: "And it's tricky because I want to share with you all the stuff I love."

Panel 6: Dad: "Because my real dream for you… the dream of which all the others are made… is that you be happy."

Panel 7: Child: "So, what do you want to be when you grow up?" Dad: "Helicopter."

Panel 8: Child: "I don't think—" Child (yelling): "WAAAAAAAH!"
