I like this quite a lot; there have been many interesting comments
already, but what I noted, and found slightly perplexing is the
juxtaposition of "leapt ahead" (I know it means in the space race),
which sounds like praise, and then the next two lines contradict
that premise. Perhaps some sense of fear on the father's part
could be expressed before the phrase "leapt ahead".
Still, despite some of the shortcomings that others have noted,
I like it.
