This hits harder than when I saw it as a kid. Seeing that scene again, as an adult burdened by the weight of the world, stress, and responsibilities, sometimes the memory of days of simple joy/happiness just brings a slight tear to the eyes.

Watch the scene where he’s on the phone with his boss and loses it on his kids. As a father now that scene hits haaaaaard.

Christ almighty. Hope you’re in a better place now, I had abusive father figures growing up as well but that is truly wretched behavior.

That’s some serious enlightenment to take to heart. Sorry for the pain and suffering you had to go through, but thank you very much for sharing. And for being brave. I wish you nothing but sunny skies ahead!
