Scarlet finds rocky planets with volcanic activity very exciting. Her father is a geologist, and when he visits planets with volcanoes, he likes to take her on research flights to such planets at weekends or during the school holidays. He also teaches her interesting specialised knowledge and keeps himself informed about what else is going on in her life away from the family and school. He likes to listen to her very attentively and shows a lot of interest and understanding. However, he avoids asking her interogatively or passing judgement on what she tells him. He instead prefers to talk about his experiences from his youth, education and career and also does not conceal his own mistakes and learning processes, enabling her to benefit from his and other people's experiences without harming nor lecturing her The joint activities and excursions are quality time, they strengthen the father-daughter relationship and mutual trust.
