I envy that relationship. My dad doesn't even know my religious or political beliefs, let alone sharing a hobby. It's not like we don't talk, he just hears what he wants to hear, and he doesn't want to hear anything where I know more than him (including my hobbies and my field)
I lost my dad in my 30s and I still want to ask him to build stuff with me. My 6 year old would have loved to too, so I’m trying to take better care of myself than my dad did, so we have a lot longer together.
