“At home that night, I was working on my mythology report when Phoebe called. She was whispering. When she went downstairs to say goodnight to her father, he was sitting in his favorite chair staring at the television, but the television wasn't on. If she did not know her father any better, she would have thought he had been crying. 'But my father never cries,' she said. But my father never cries.” ChildrenGriefFatherhoodIdealization Book:Walk Two Moons Source: Walk Two Moons

I wondered if this was how my father felt when I threw all those temper tantrums. Maybe he hated me for a while.” FriendshipGriefChildhoodAngerParenting Book:Walk Two Moons Source: Walk Two Moons
