It is true that most of these courtesies are shallow, and not emerging from anywhere close to the heart, as you said, but aren't there times when a real 'thank you' or a word of encouragement / gratitude wins hands down over a gesture to that effect (or the absence of one). There are people who cannot spare a smile for those who serve them, but a 'Thank you' comes automatically, and the utterance at least dissolves the feeling that the services are taken for granted. Having said that, I agree to every line you've written here. Interesting blog, thought-provoking post. “Soon, a day will come …”

All you have to do is being balanced. Do a little bit of everything and leave the rest to the child itself. Now if you are trying to prove to yourself whether you were a good parent is another thing.
