[when his parents say they're going to adopt George] George is not your average kid. He's had a tough life. The adoption itself is gonna be hard on him. He's gonna need a lot of love and support.
And you have a corner on that market?
No, of course not, but support of any kind isn't one of your strong suits.
That's not true.
Do you ever remember holding me or Julie when we were upset? Did you ever allow us to express any of our feelings?
If you're asking me if we wiped your noses and held your hands, then the answer is no. No, we were too busy keeping a roof over your heads and food on the table!
Well, there's more to parenting than that, Dad.
Oh, and what does that mean?
It means that you are not the parents for George.
