An article printed in a Dutch magazine reflects the transition which most of us have gone or are going through in our assessment of fathers.
4 years My daddy can do anything.
7 years My dad knows a lot, a whole lot.
10 years Dad doesn’t quite know everything.
12 years Oh well, naturally father doesn’t understand.
14 years Father? Hopelessly old-fashioned!
21 years Oh, that man is out-of-date, what would you expect?
25 years He comes up with a good idea now and then.
30 years Must find out what Dad thinks about it.
35 years A little patience; let’s get Dad’s input first.
50 years What would Dad have thought about it?
60 years I wish I could talk it over with Dad once more.
