Thanks for the guest post by Esteban Vinson
My nephew is moved into his first apartment this week. He is the most responsible boy I know. He wanted to do everything on his own. My brother was never a great dad. He never was there for his son and never helped him with anything. My nephew always came to me for advice and I feel more like his dad than his uncle. However, this time he wanted to show me he could do it on his own. He found a wonderful apartment at an affordable price. Of course the first thing he had installed was expertsatellite. He found two roommates to help him cover the cost of the apartment and all utilities. I told him over and over how proud I was of him. I made sure to know how grownup he was acting. Then he said the thing I feared he would say: “I wish my dad would be proud of me”. It broke my heart. I hope one day my brother acknowledges how wonderful his son is, but I don’t see that day coming anytime soon.
