This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Parenthood: Gerard

Is there much to say about the big guy? He's the one really totally nice guy who I think would almost always turn out to be the loving parent, like from some old 70s historical drama like the dad from Little House on the Prairie or The Waltons, always ready with advice, always strong and doing the right thing, and always ready to forgive.

Of course, the one thing about Gerard is that he expects his kids to do right too, and if they turn out to be bastards like the rest of his family, he will be deeply disappointed. He'll guilt the fuck out of you.

I don't see him doing much more than that, except maybe in one circumstance: if you, his kid, manipulate him.  I think that might be the one thing that could get him mad enough to decide that you need some "sterner" punishment.

Basically, yes. He's definitely the Jonathan Kent type, anyways.
