His father would have a bias that I don't.

  We form an opinion on people in the first 10 seconds we meet them; this opinion rarely ever changes. There was a study where students were asked to rate their professor right while the professor was entering the classroom for the first time, and then at the end of the semester. Opinions from students hardly changed at all after a semester of class. It's very difficult for you to know if you're biased. It's impossible for me to know you're not.

    It's also been shown that we like to be consistent with what we've already said, so perhaps unstated opinions are more subject to change than stated ones.
