On this day of the 23rd of August, we have watched a movie named Honor Thy Father. This movie is all about father’s love that will do anything just for his family.

It can be related to other families in our country. Here in our country children of rich people usually kidnapped because of people need money to reach their daily needs to survive because of poverty it leads to stealing and etc. Despite the hardships, they will sacrifice everything to keep their family safe. I also have learned and realized a lot of things. First, is to analyze what should be done in a particular situation. John Lloyd did illegal things but it was for the lives of his loved ones. Is that still counted as a good act? Before doing things, double think of its consequences. He could’ve talked to his relatives to borrow some money or maybe loan to a bank. Yet he chose the hard but faster way. To be in his shoes, that would be a very hard decision to make because the lives of your loved ones are being talked about.

“The Father” by Hugh Garner Topic: Discuss John Purcell’s personality traits that make him a poor father in the short story “The Father,” by Hugh Garner In the short story “The Father,” by Hugh Garner, it is apparent that John Purcell does not have a great relationship with his son because he is selfish, unaware, and uninvolved.

This is proven when he says ‘Listen, Helen, for God’s sake take him downtown with you tomorrow and get the rest of the Boy Scout outfit.

She is faced with helping her husband make the biggest and most final choice in his life so far. Since they have been apart for a while, separated by prison, it would be incredibly easy for her to say that he should live and give up his good name just so she can still have her husband and her kids have their father.

Often when one thinks of the standard father-son relationship, rather stereotypically there’s an essence of rigidity. Masculinity and the stubborn adherence to its tight standards in how men should behave, how they should talk, or how they should even feel about other men, even in their own families. Even the simplest “I love you,” or any variation is replaced between men with awkward or utterly empty silences, censoring the feelings of familial or brotherly or friendly affection between them, even if they are strongly there.
