Yes, I think it makes a lot of sense.
I have noticed that for me too, it is much easier to stick to a 100% raw diet instead of permanently fighting cravings, wanting to eat cooked foods, but trying to keep the amount of raw food high, etc..
Even Steve, whom I would call very reasonable and in control, said that he prefers to stick to 100% raw because eating cooked foods is too much of a slippery slope.
Maybe you are just more sensitive than your father. Some people can occasionally smoke one cigarette and never get addicted. Some people drink alcohol regularly and never become alcoholics. But for other people this is impossible, they would become dependent. I don't believe this is a matter of discipline or willpower. I think it's a matter of physical sensitivity.
It makes no sense to beat yourself up "Why am I not like my father?!". Obviously you are not, so accept that and go from there.
For me personally, I know that eating cooked food, even a small amount of it, would be shooting myself in the foot, because I *know* that as a result I will have a very hard time sticking to my raw diet. If you are like me, cooked foods only trigger more cravings. The more you indulge, the more difficult you make it for yourself. Every time you eat cooked food again, you reset the whole process of getting used to the raw diet and start anew. It's really easier to go through the weaning off once and for all.
Hope this helps. You're not alone.
Love.
