Your father worked until his fingers were dirty little stubs that couldn't even pick up a fork. He had his problems, we all did, back then. But we all sacrificed. We did what we had to do, so you wouldn't need to. But now, like everyone your age, you turn around and blame your parents for whatever's wrong. He had his reasons for being that way."

I think that sometimes there is no higher logic and no complexities. Sometimes there is just right and wrong. No excuses, no looking at our flawed lives and no blaming anyone else.
