John to his father

When I was a a teenager, I thought he was spot on. Now that I'm a father of a teenager, I think he's an ungrateful brat.

I was shocked at first when he said he owed him nothing because what he did was what a father is supposex to do. I feel conflicted about that. But, it is true that John was a grown man and could make his own decisions. He didn't need his fathers permission. But, he did want his support.

I thought he was dead on and I 100% agreed with his point.

I thought he was spot on.

I didn't have a problem with the overall content of his speech, but every time I watch it I'm startled by the tone, as well as when he says, "not until your whole generation has lain down and died will the deadweight of you be off our backs." Even though I agree with what he's saying, I'm struck by a son using these particular words to his father.
