Great piece! I am just a little confused to why you chose that title, can you please add a summary to help readers to understand the chosen title? "Time will pass so fast" not past, one little error is okay to fix !

    Thanks for the correction, Anntonette. The women have overcome men as the controlling head of the house, much like a sheriff of a town in the old western on TV.

Excellent job on this, Phillip. If I had a six left it would surely be yours. Your intelligent essay is thought-provoking and timely.

"Many people in society have forgotten this basic principle. Instead, they'd go look for trouble, which reminds me that good patriarch says the world has enough trouble. It needs no one to add to its cup. It's full enough. Work hard at whatever you do with your life.

Bravo! Bless you, my friend. Bob

I really liked your piece... It reminded me of my own family structure
back 'In The Day'... I especially liked the last paragraph... It's so TRUE!
I caught a couple 'glitches' you might want to correct... 'Time will (pass) so
fast (you'll) wonder'...
Otherwise, my compliments... Well Done!

Hi pbomar1115. I enjoyed reading this. My father was seldom home and left us with an abusive mother. Your parents sound OK. Not perfect, but who is. Men were expected to be like your father. I did find one nit. See below. Thank you for sharing

"Time will past so fast you'd wonder where it went. ". Should be pass not past

    No, Pamusart, this was not my experience in my home. This is a fictional world that I never saw but everyone knows it.
