We're always looking roughly 30 years behind us. In the '80s they were obsessed with the '50s and so on.

They hurt you. You hurt 'em back. Or maybe it is the other way around. Whatever. Someday you might find a way to forgive each other. But it won't be like it used to 'cause that pain never really goes away.

Once upon a time, each of us was somebody's kid. Everyone had a father, even if he never provided anything more than his seed.
