I have enjoyed reading about the parental relationships in this series. In particular, Nita and Dairine's parents are interesting.
First, they love each other. That much you can feel. But you can also feel the love and patience they have for their children (and for their daughters; friends). We know what kind of relationship Nita's mother eventually had with Kit when she said to him, "Woof" at the end of WD. That showed a deep respect for him.
What's interesting is that they started the same as Helena with Kit, but were eventually persuaded by Nita and Kit. We don't know what it took for Kit to convince his parents, but I will assume it was the same.
After their introduction to the idea of having a daughter into wizardry, they became her biggest cheerleader. The same with Dairine. The parents took to it so well. That is one thing I loved.
