24. That is a heartwarming story, grannie4peace! Passing the torch to younger gen.

My late dad did this for me as a kid in the 60's - he would tell me his thoughts and ask what I thought - it signaled respect, introspection and critical thinking. He also taught me to deal with those who disagree with respect, to listen and make cogent arguments. All of this contributed greatly to what I am today -like him, a humble truthseeker.

I know they will remember this all their lives.
