Father and Son

In the story, The Road, the father and son have an incredible relationship. Because of their circumstances, they are forced to have a close relationship. The father has to play both the mother and father for his child, which is a big responsibility. As they travel to find survival, the father is put to the task of putting his needs aside, and making sure he still raises his child appropriately.

Sometimes i wonder would me and father ever have that type of relationship. Under the circumstances, probably yeah, but now, my father and i barely even speak and we live in the same household. Hopefully it will happen before we ever have to encounter such a horrible experience.
