At different ages, a son or daughter's perspective of their father changes: as children they see their father as all-knowing and great, as teenagers they see their father as outdated and unreasonable, as adults they gain appreciation for the hardships and discipline their father endured to raise them, and late in life they recognize their father was unique and great.
