Problem is he is like the old grandfather sitting there telling stories of how it used to be. You know the kind, tells the same story over and over. You roll your eyes, tell the kids to sit cross-legged on the floor and listen. Whether they want to or not.
Then a day comes and the old story telling grandfather isn’t there anymore to politely listen too. And somehow you realize it wasn’t just a story he was telling you. He was telling you about how to survive living.

I find your post to be very sound and well thought out.
I listened to my grandfather, as well as my mother and my father. It is because of them that I learned to survive and how to live through life’s problems.
I am now the old grandfather that passes on those stories to my little ones. They will remember those things I have taught them. They will remember them when they need it the most.
I hold, that one of the greatest problems in today’s society is that parents no longer ‘raise’ their children. People simply bring little people into the world and watch them grown into bigger people... A child needs to be raised.
