I had a father, but didn't have a father. He owned his own business, worked at it 7 days a week, it was all-consuming to him. So how much difference would it have been if you're father had been, say a workaholic?
The problem with this is this type of behavior is it can be passed onto the offspring. My brother followed into my Dad's footsteps, works 7 days a week, owns his own business. My sister isn't much different, owns her own business as well, but a little less consumed by it. Me? I've also had my own business, from time to time, but I'm the more laidback of the 3!
