have talked about this before. but i love hearing from you. yes, that cats in the cradle song has always effected me strongly. and not for my own personal experiences, but cause i see exactly what you are talking about with males in their development and experience and societal pressures. my husband went thru the whole father/son father being too busy and never around and hubby really, kinda, secretly, not so secretly resenting it. to letting it go after we got married and really bonding and spending time with father. and the strong need from father to now connect.
