My parents are very loving, attentive parents. My dad values order and tidiness, while my mom is more prone to disorganization. My dad’s mantra was “do what you’re told, when you’re told, the first time you’re told” with household tasks.
I’m 34 and don’t really see my parents in either of those descriptions. I think there was a lot less pressure to have a ~parenting philosophy~ when I was a kid.

My dad had a few additions to your dad’s mantra: do what you’re told, when you’re told, with a smile on your face, and in the property appointed uniform of the day.
Another was “time spent in reconnaissance is never wasted.” Is this hard or soft?
My dad is named Kelly :) He had a senior management position in the auto industry and his most recent email to my siblings has the same level of precision and formality that he would have used at work.

Our dads sound like kindred spirits. What did yours do for a living?
Believe it or not but he was an Army officer from one of the “Kelley” neighborhoods in Queens.
