The boy at the helm can steer a true course if you have'chosen it well. Any father must feel the magnitude of the task.of guiding his son through isle's uncertain waters. What responsible man could&feel any other Way? This is Fatherhood ... the realization that nothing is so important as guiding your own tort along a course that has maturity of outlook and responsibility as its destination. Such guidance requires a delicate touch, the mature understanding of 'a man who has sailed these waters before.
