Support: He emphasizes that family is always their backbone and they are always available to talk.
Drafted Text Translation
"Baby, Dad couldn't see you off on your flight today. Have you arrived in Beijing? I just finished work, and my heart feels empty.
We had happy times this holiday, but also some unpleasant ones. I know I sometimes spoke too hastily and had a bad attitude; please don't take it to heart.
Now that you're back in Beijing, take good care of yourself. Eat on time and rest well. You can play games, but don't stay up too late—your health is most important. I'm not trying to control you; I just want you to feel secure and for things to get better and better for you.
No matter what happens, home is always your support. If you miss us, just send a message or call; we are always here."
Sender's Advice
At the end of the chat, the person providing the draft adds:
Instructions: "You can just copy and paste this. It is gentle, apologetic, and caring without being accusatory. Children accept this style most easily."
Offer: They ask if the father needs a shorter, simpler version of the text.
