Interesting blog called the Last Psychiatrist. Fascinating post today on people living vicariously through their kids. Her writing style is really unique.
"The only thing left for him was to become father of. "My daughter is a soccer star, " he wouldn't have to say, everyone would just know it about them. And he'd sit at the practices and give her advice and then afterwards a quick snack and off to violin, because she had the potential to get to Julliard if she practiced, and, crazy passing daydream, one dayPeople would do a story about him.
But it wasn't going like he had imagined it would. Somewhere in his brain he had thought that maybe his daughter's success would keep him from getting old. He had never been able to get off C Team, and the last thing left that he might be excel at, fatherhood, he was proving to be as mediocre as in everything else."
