Three sons all grown one daughter in high school.

I'm not very good at very many things, but one thing I'm positive I'm good at is being a dad.

Yes, I'm a happy parent.

That's not what she meant. It's not "are you happy being a parent?" It's "are you, a person who happens to be a parent, genuinely happy?"

Not op bro. I was just letting them know they misread the prompt. I'd love for them to be happy as a person having chosen to have children. Being miserable sucks! I hope that's not the case, but I don't know if it is or not because op pointedly did not address it

There's a huge difference between "I am happy with my choice" and "I am happy in my life"

Keep on willfully misreading and mischaracterising what was said to agree with your agenda.

That's really effective in life, so I hear.

Regardless of what the answer is, you are definitely not happy. Seriously my dude. Why are you being so aggressive? Miscommunication happens all the time. It isn't this big of a deal

I have no agenda. Unlike you I don't give a fuck what someone else decides to do with their life. I'm not misreading or mischaracterizing anything. Chappelle roan has been astoundingly clear on her opinion. You're just not listening, and arguing against what you feel like arguing against. You're angry at a strawman and it's preventing you from actually talking about the topic seriously
