  Oh, no question about that. When I was a kid, I tended to assume that my parents always were available to drop what they're doing and engage with you. (And which, incidentally, is surely a reason why many parents are finding working from home during quarantine to be so difficult.)

    Your question may have touched a nerve, if he was getting older and no longer could see sharp.

      Maybe he was like me who had some degree of hearing loss when I grew older and could no longer hear C sharp.

        musical notes repeat once every doubling of frequencies, so there are many C#s spread throughout the range of human hearing. The only way someone could be unable to hear c# would be if they were unable to hear at all.

          Your parent and grandparent comments were (imo, clever) word plays on C# / see sharp and back to _hear_ c# (instead of see sharp). Edit: Point being--scientific accuracy not required. :)
