[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family was truly middle class and yet my siblings and I have the generational wealth of growing up with great parents

I’m a guy but I see so clearly how my 2 younger sisters took it for granted that any man should treat them with love, generosity, respect and humor. And if he didn’t, then he had no place in their lives.

As a result, they both married the same kind of guys almost 30 years ago, and have now raised daughters with the same expectations of the men in their lives.

I will note that neither my dad nor my brothers-in-law have ever gone in for a second of the “Girl Dad” stuff which seems weirdly gendered to me. Do you really have to call attention to the fact that you think it’s some kind of special achievement to treat a daughter with the same respect and affection you would treat a son?

At any rate, my parents are still thankfully around and there will be 24 of us when my siblings, our spouses, our kids and now even the couple of spouses and kids they have all get together tomorrow for Christmas. I think my father does view himself as “the richest man in town” and we are all beneficiaries of that wealth [/quote]
This is really lovely, PP.[/quote]
