My son walked out of the kitchen upset that he couldn't keep playing DJ on my iphone as it was now dinnertime and throwing quite the fit. After Kelly diffused the situation she quite lovingly points out "you know, he's just so convinced he's right somehow, and he just wants his way" (and she was very right). After she said this my mind naturally started thinking "so this is what they were trying to say in the movie Teenwolf! It's all so clear to me now!!" What?? What do you mean that's crazy! That's not weird or random at all! Here, I'll show you...
We and our kids, we're the same. Cut from the same cloth. It's all how we choose to see it. Hud was clearly playing out MY most stubborn attributes! It was like watching a movie of myself as he stomped out of the kitchen. Now of course my kids...they are dreams come true. But let's face it, we've all got our crap. And as I see it, it's either an opportunity to get closer to our children or it's just annoying how they act so, so, sooooo...just like us!! And it's up to us! Hopefully I'll be the Teenwolf Dad, waiting for my kids at the table with breakfast, inviting them into conversation of why WE are the way WE are. Hopefully.
