Warren Buffet and lack of Parent bonding
Buffett revered his father, a stockbroker who became a four-term Congressman, he had a complex relationship with his mother. A model housewife to the outside world, his mother would "verbally lash" the young Buffett and his older sister for hours, until the children wept. Buffett says that when his mother died he cried not because he was sad but "because of the waste. She had her good parts, but the bad parts kept me from having a relationship with her."

I find it interesting that someone who didnt have that father and motherly support in his life still becomes successful. He is not blaming the world, not killing anybody and not becoming another stereotype. He admitted that he cried when his mother passed away and it wasnt because he was sad, but because of the waste. Either way he is still expressing emotion and when someone looks at him they are not going to know thats how he is feeling. but i also feel its socially acceptable to mourn for your loved ones no matter what age you are
