What’s the difference?

A father and daughter were crossing a bridge.
The father said, “Hold my hand, the water is dangerous”.
The daughter replied, “No dad, you hold my hand”
“What’s the difference?” Dad wanted to know.
The daughter said, “If I hold your hand, and something happens I might let go coz I am scared. But I know for sure that you won’t let go of my hand, whatever may come”


Well, there isn’t much difference in who holds the hand, but there is a helluva lot of difference!!
