In the beginning of the story Shepard shows a lot of respect for his father. Whe

n his father snapped or got upset Shepard always tried to stay out of his way or find a way to get him out of his mood. Shepard and his father do not have trouble communicating with one another, although at times Shepard felt intimidated and scared of his father. But other than that they talked to each other as if they were each other's friend. Their communication is very clean and respectful because they are very open to each other and they interact unselfishly. Shepard cares and loves his father; but their relationship was very different than any usual son and father relationship. They go out to places where a father and son could spend good quality time together. In my opinion Shepard's father was very inconsiderate to his son because he was only a child at the time and some of the things he said was too much for a child of his age. It is obvious that they have no hateful feelings towards each other but they do not have much respect for each other, which is something that is crucial for a father and son relationship.
