Chris.
A phrase that is sometimes used by Fathers to their sons or by Teachers to their students says that the time for those sons or students to 'stand on their own feet' has come. For some sons and students these are challenging words indeed. To others, who have already been learning to be responsible, these words are just a confirmation for their life.
