Transcript:
Dad: NATE! Didn't I ask you to clean out the garage? Nate: Okay, okay... Keep your shirt on. Dad: Hey! I don't need to hear that attitude! Did I ask for attitude? Dad: I never spoke to your grandpa like that when I was your age! I was taught to be RESPECTFUL! Dad: And you what, Nate? Being respectful means knowing when to keep your mouth shut! Dad: I was taught that if I didn't have anything nice to say, I shouldn't say anything at all! Dad: I never would have DREAMED of talking back to an adult! ANY adult! Dad: When I was your age, I only spoke when I had something to say! Nate: ... And now he's making up for lost time.
