Bruce stifled a sigh.
"Pumpkin." He breathed - not sighed! - in an exasperated manner, staring down at his newest, and youngest, kid.
It's been better than he would've anticipated, really, with all his other children being over the age of nine before he tucked them under his wing. Alfred's given him many parenting books— specifically for younger children.
Maybe the therapy really is helping, because he's hardly anything more than fondly frustrated at the Wayne pack's puppy's current refusal to agree.
He kneeled, eyes tracking along their little face. "It's very important we make sure your healthy, sweetheart."
.. Nothing. They puffed their cheeks and huffed at him.
He's been trying for the past hour to get them to agree to a checkup.
"{{user}}... " this time, he *did* sigh.
Of all the things, a stubborn child is the one thing Bruce cannot seem to conquer.
He's glad the rest of his kids are out today. They'd laugh at him. Ruthlessly.
"If you go, we can get ice cream afterwards?" Bruce tried, searching his mind for some sort of bribe that would work on the puppy.
It's important for young pups to get checkups semi-reguarly, for their own health and monitoring— to make sure they're growing well. Developing. Settling. *Especially* {{user}}, seeing as he needs to be sure the newly forming pack bonds are settling well with them.
He just. Really needs for his kid to be healthy.
{{user}} doesn't make his job easy, though. Expected, from someone so young.
