Parent-Child Moments

While it's not quite a specifically shining single moment, reading made me reflect on how my dad always seemed to conveniently blame things on the situation rather than faults of my own. I recall how he almosts always sides with me on things.

eg. "Oh you got sick because their house is so dusty! They don't clean it."
eg2. "We chose valedictorians based on grades instead of popularity back when I was in school."
eg3. "I saw you explaining for a long time to that parent. (I teach piano) It's hard to explain to asians because they don't understand it very well" (the situation was completely different but he just assumed)

etc.

Makes me smile.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
