I have no hard time understanding how a bunch of three or four sisters could end up in eternal quarreling. My mother grew up in a family like that.
I reckon some families are pretty tough growing up in.
I will always look up to my grandfather. But he was indeed very, very demanding and rigid.
He worked as an executive of a major Swedish insurance company.
He didn’t exactly fancy the reports he got from teachers sent to him informing him on how his daughters behaved at school in the 1950’s.
Discipline is a good thing, but I’m proud to say I know how to control people without using physical force and violence.
School shouldn’t be about control. It should be about mutual respect.
We’re sll best friends NOW, but at any given time growing up, I’d have paid someone to take one of them away. WHICH one varied almost daily!
