If as a father I was evaluated in the way a CEO, by an Administrative Council, is likely that I had already been defenered for a date. I do not have some characteristics that I suppose are necessary for the position.
And I do not speak of leadership capacity, but simply having a word, a proverb, a killer advice for the many situations that the afflictions of growth – I have daughters of 20 and 17 years – ask.
On the other hand, the genetic data game made them already come out of facts with some characteristics that not even the best or the worst father in the world, if that were, would be able to change.
And I was lucky: to look just in one aspect, they have hypertrophied morals, at least compared to mine.
I seem to be blasé, but skeptical subjects, unbelieving, on the threshold of nihilism, are very affected by impostor syndrome. But in fact, I would like to be able to be able to be more than this modern laissez-faire, a more warm gesture, edifying stories, but some proverbs.
Proverbs went easy from my mother’s mouth. She spoke a lot, and with conviction, of the respect we should devote to others; But another proverb is, that I like particularly, “wool does not weigh on the ram”, used to convince us, to me and my brother, to take a cardigan when leaving home.
Once I heard the late psychotherapist Flávio Gikovate to say in CBN that the rigidity was most worth the leniency, he must not have used that word in the education of his children. If that marked me, it didn’t change my conduct.
Perhaps some scolding do or missed, but to give them I would have to face an even more severe identity crisis.
But how to scold those who call you “father”, “daddy”, “painho”? Is there a larger honorary title? What a grandered, what “sir” surpasses it?
Even today, if I wonder about the subject, I am amazed and especially to tender to realize that I understand, so naturally, that when they use this vocative, father, it is me who are calling.
And do you still think it fits a gift on Sunday?
Some readers were very kind and generous in answering seriously and without any skepticism to the apocalyptic question about the climate I made in my last column. I would like to thank Paloma Fonseca, who walks on foot, bike and bus and, when using app, prefers electric cars, even if you pay more for it; and Miguel Tanus Jorge, who does not eat red meat and prefers organic foods.
I also thank Ivo Mutzenberg, Fernando Lima, Johnny Daniel and Tadeu Santos, who recognize the climate emergency; And especially to the Ipiranga LUIZ OLIVEIRA locksmith, who contacted it by email to present the artifact he created.
It is a sink drain, “drainage valve,” as I said, specially designed for restaurants. Artifact helps to avoid clogging caused by food scraps, which, according to him, can help control waste.
