Father Character Interesting

More From John Green

Visitation reflects the era of the absentee father; parent time influences the re-emergence of the involved father. visitation reflects the destruction of the family; parent time influences the reconstruction of the family. parent time influences an era that understands that as either parent loses, so lose the children.

They may already know too much about their mother and father--nothing being more factual than divorce, where so much has to be explained and worked through intelligently (though they have tried to stay equable). i've noticed this is often the time when children begin calling their parents by their first names, becoming little ironists after their parents' faults. what could be lonelier for a parent than to be criticized by his child on a first-name basis?

Any object not interesting in itself may become interesting through becoming associated with an object in which an interest already exists. the two associated objects grow, as it were, together; the interesting portion sheds its quality over the whole; and thus things not interesting in their own right borrow an interest which becomes as real and as strong as that of any natively interesting thing.
