Agreed.
I find it amazing because I see it happen all the time. My parents are very thoughtful. I am my father's son, cut from the same bolt of cloth. He too feels as strongly as my last post about being able to create his own reality, which is why he left a prominent well to do family in the Philippines. He did not want to be known as "His father's son." He wanted to be known for himself.
My sister has 2 children, ages 2 and 8 months respectively. My father is very considerate in not imposing how he feels my sister and her husband should do things. He sees her "mistakes" from his wisdom, but he holds his tongue, which if you knew my father is a feat.
