Aunque el padre debe poner a su hijo en su cuna, desafortunadamente es un adicto de spainshDict.com, as? que no puede alejarse de su computadora.


Although the father should be putting his son in his crib, unfortunately he is a spanishDict.com addict, so therefore he can't get away from his computer.

Padre: ¿Qué quieres decir? Este es "tiempo de calidad"!

Dad: What do you mean? This is "quality time"!

Corrections appreciated, I think "quality time" is sort of an idiom that can't be translated directly like I did...
