How do you feel about Ted Forth?

He's definitely not an uptight, super-macho bullying jerk.
But is he your idea of an adult?
Shouldn't he be a bit more stressed? Or maybe he IS stressed and his clinging to fantasy is his coping mechanism.
On the plus side, he does say the right thing to his wife, Sally, now and then.
And perhaps it is worth remembering that he is a comic strip character, not a real person.
