Attitudes to education

I am pretty sure my dad kept me at high school ( he had 4 years of education total), only because of the possibility of me being sent to Vietnam in the early 70's). Besides I am hopeless at anything except digging holes ( because I can't break that!). When I got a scholarship to teachers college the wider family considered kicking me out of the family. When I went to theological college they held the meeting and did!
I got a PhD now and last year my uncle (who wouldn't attend my dad's funeral) finally accepted me back in the family.
