Disagree with your second paragraph though, just because the world isn't filled with nice people with an open mind doesn't mean his father should follow that trend. If anything a father should be the most nice and open to their children's likes and dislikes. Even if the world thinks he's crazy he should be able to take comfort in the idea that his dad is behind him no matter what he decides. |
I didn't mean to say the father should come down on him and tell the kid not to do it, no no I absolutely think everyone in the whole world in entitled to do whatever they want in whatever walk of life they want. I do however think the father should let the kid know, of what he will face in the world, keep in mind my father to this day still sees a tv remote as science gone too far, but when I was nerding about in my room collecting games and playing warcraft online he said a few times like that he didn't agree that it was how someone should be all the time but he still loved seeing how happy I was and how much enjoyment I got from what I was doing, now managed to find myself a gaming nerdy girl, get married and we have a house filled with all the stuff we love, and I still have my loving family always supporting everything we do. You can perfectly support someones way of life without imatating them to show that it is the normal. That can border on mockery if your heart truely into what you are doing and you are just imatating the behavour of your child so they feel normal.
