I finished this in one day. It was interesting and helped me see into our parents old ways. Although, the reasoning behind the behaviors of our parents is something I’m already aware of. It was great to hear it from a father’s point of view. Their parents didn’t show love the way the next generation shows love. Generations change and so does their needs, so it’s up to each generation of parents to adapt to the new generation to help them in ways that maybe they didn’t get help. It just had me reflecting on how sometimes I think the new generation is so weak and entitled at times and that is because of how my generation was raised we were raised to be independent and get the job done and to live to a certain standard but then we always are healing in ways to stop being involved in things that no longer serve us. I believe the new generation is a product of the one before and it comes down to the saying that it really does “take a village”. I’m ranting, but this book got me thinking and going down a rabbit hole. 😅
