Sometimes when our parents are gone, it's difficult to feel old enough to be left alone.

Thanks for sharing the outcome of the poll--the results are better than I thought they would be. It was also interesting to read others' stories. The sad ones make me hope I was not unkind to my Dad when we disagreed about politics and religion, because I was so very lucky to have had him as a parent and role model.

Wow, thanks for sharing this. I find it so interesting when people say that they didn't have a bad father because he didn't physically abuse them. That's such a low bar! I hope we expect more out of dads these days.
