Subject: How would things be different if : Harm had been raised by just Dad instead of Mom

How do you think things would be different if it had been his mom who had disappeared exactly the way his father did? (I know, women weren't pilots in the military until 2 years after the end of the Vietnam war, but work with me here) If she had been allowed to be a pilot in the Navy and had been shot down, gone MIA exactly the same as Harm Sr. had, and Harm was exactly the same age when she disappeared, would he have had the same obsession with finding her? Would his obsession be less or more? Would have have been prompted to follow in her footsteps like he did his father? What do you think?

[> I think it would have been worse. I think you would have had two obsessed people looking for her. I think Harm would have had less parenting from his father, because the father would have been obsessing over finding his wife. Harm, Jr would have definetly followed in his mother's footsteps. -- Cathy F., 11:19:35 03/17/12 Sat

[> [> A very interesting question....and I have to agree with Cathy F on this one. I think it would have been more difficult on Harm, and for the same reasons as with his dad he would've followed in her footsteps. -- fananicfan, 16:56:21 03/17/12 Sat

[> [> Great question Theresa! I have to agree with Cathy F and Fananicfan on this one. It would have been harder on Harm and he would have followed in his mom's footsteps. I'm curious as to how his relationships with his friends, specifically Mac would have been. -- Angela -- Mommy of 2 JAGLettes, 12:35:43 03/22/12 Thu

[> I think it would depend upon whether Harm's father was (1) also military and would also search for his wife or (2) non-military and accepting that there was nothing he could do. Harm would identify more with the same-sex parent. -- Vi, 17:10:57 03/18/12 Sun
