2) What did Daddy lose because of his obsession and what did he
gain?
A) Daddy’s obsession with ping pong led him to give up studying,
doing his homework, getting good grades, and even dropping out
of school for a while. It also made him dishonest and secretive
with his parents and kept them in the dark about everything he
was doing.
However, Daddy’s obsession probably taught him some valuable
lessons about winning and losing, exposed him to a new world, and left
him with some lifelong memories. Perhaps it also taught him the value
of a balanced life, as after a while he went back to school and
graduated.
3) How did the teacher help Daddy? Why did she not succeed at
first?
