Hi,
I also had a terrible relationship with my father as well and my teachers as well.
In 1974 in my college physics class while studying aerodynamic---I shared with the class that the Boeing 707 uses refined kerosene fuel.
It was at the Degree college Asghar Mall Rd in Pindi and the Physics Professor was Prof Khurhsid---if older asghar mall college students may remember him---.
That A'hole insukted and humikiated me and made fun of me.
Never asking where and how I got the information---. If he would have asked I would have told him about my father's friend the PIA boeing 707 engineer that I met a couple of weeks ago at Karachi airport---.
But the thing is---that it was not my fault---it was my father's fault---.
He started buying books for me when I was born---. Books or war and history and literature---at 10 years of age I had read war and peace---Gone with the wind---the readers digest 10 volume books on world war 2---and myriads of other books and that is in the mid 60---at 7 years of age I started---and the books were in english and not children books.
And you are right again---that is why I told my wife to keep my kids illiterate and don't take them to the library---and I say the same to you and others reading thias post---.
Don't teach your kids more than what their teachers are exposed to---their teachers will insult them and humiliate them---their elders will insult them and hate them---their friends will hate them---.
And for what---I am only saying what I know---and just because you don't know it---please don't blame me for it.
Now if I was proven wrong and if I had stated lies on this forum---I can understand your comments very well---but most of what I have written over the years has come true---so what difference a little drubbing makes---?
