1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: My wife disowned my son, and I can't believe what 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: you freaking said, you know, disowning your son. 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to say it's something controversial. 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, not cool, not cool. I don't like it. I 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: don't like it for it. I actually think I'm going 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: to disown every sin I have. Really, I think that 7 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: built character actually does. Have you ever have you ever 8 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: heard of Game of Thrones? No, you haven't, I've heard 9 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: of you. 10 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 2: I've never seen well. 11 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: In Game of Thrones, John snow bastard son disowned, he 12 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: joins the Knight's Watch and then basically becomes like King 13 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: of the North. Very successful, very successful. So I think 14 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: if you want your all right. Other example, Jeff Bezos, 15 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: his parents rejected, abandoned, abandoned billion jobs, abandoned billionaires. So 16 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: it's it's not just a disown that's too light. We 17 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: have to completely abandoned. And yeah, see disowning is is 18 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: child's play. Yeah exactly, I want to be an adult. 19 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: We want to make a billionaire abandon Yeah. Get biblical, 20 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: it was like the thing was like during Moses times. 21 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: I think Moses got thrown in the river them. Oh 22 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: he was in a river. The Romans are spartans what 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: that was like in. 24 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: A gorgering them, throw them off off a cliff or 25 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 3: something the straw and they're one of us. By the way, 26 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 3: before we get off this topic, I have to say, 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 3: anyone watching right now that has never seen one episode 28 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 3: of Game of Thrones, please please comment.

My son 39 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: is the quiet one in the house. He keeps to 40 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: himself a lot, but not to the point of being concerning. 41 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: My wife and stepdaughter, on the other hand, the complete opposite, 42 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of chatty Cathy's. Over year, they both encourage 43 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: him to be outgoing and share activities and join gatherings 44 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: with the extended family. 45 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: Okay, it seems good. 46 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: Something they're including right, this is all good, all fair play. 47 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 1: My son complained about having to be forced out of 48 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: his comfort zone and having his need for space being validated, which, like, 49 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: I guess I understand, but it's it's good to push 50 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: your comfort zone, and it. 51 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: Really depends on the scenario. 52 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: So I feel i'd say, I'd say, but generally pushing 53 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: your comfort zone is like, is good for growth. I 54 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: spoke to both my wife and stepdaughter and asked them 55 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: to give him space and freedom to spend his time 56 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: however he wanted. They apologized and promised to let him 57 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: be all right, which I think, like, I think it 58 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: is important maybe to respect his boundaries, but it totally depends. Yeah, 59 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: I mean, what are they pushing him to do? Like, yeah, 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: do lines of coke in the Yeah to. 61 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 2: It, Billy. 62 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: As Mother's Day was approaching, I wanted to throw my 63 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: wife a surprise Mother's Day celebration.
