Brief Summary

The video narrates a story about David Mackay, who as a child was fascinated by a police show, "Cops," and faced consequences from his mother for watching it. As an adult and now a police officer, he finds his son, Timmy, watching the inappropriate show "The Sopranos," leading to a similar confrontation. The story explores themes of childhood behavior, parental guidance, and the similarity between generations.

  • David was captivated by the show "Cops" as a child, despite its inappropriateness.
  • As an adult, he reacts similarly to his son when Timmy watches "The Sopranos."
  • David learns that some behaviors are passed down through generations when he reflects on his childhood.

Childhood Fascination with "Cops"

David Mackay, as a young boy, was intrigued by the television series "Cops" that he stumbled upon while holding his police teddy bear. His fascination ignited dreams of becoming a police officer. However, his mother quickly intervened, deeming the show inappropriate due to its violent content, and insisted he watch child-friendly programming instead. This sparked anger in young David, culminating in him throwing his teddy bear in frustration. Following his punishment, he realized the immaturity of his actions and eventually apologized to his mother, learning an important lesson.

Parenting Challenges with Timmy

Years later, David, now a police officer and father, found his son Timmy watching "The Sopranos," a show filled with violence and adult themes. Disappointed, David reprimanded Timmy, enforcing a similar lesson his mother taught him by taking the DVD away and redirecting him to watch "Barney and Friends." Timmy expressed his disdain for the children's show and even used a curse word, further frustrating David. When David’s wife, Julie, entered the room, she pointed out the irony of David's frustration, reminding him of his own childhood behavior of wanting to watch adult shows. This realization brought laughter, highlighting the generational similarities between father and son. Ultimately, David and Timmy shared a joyful moment, reinforcing their bond despite their shared "adultish" behaviors.

I promise I will listen to you and won't do it again. >> I accept your apology and you are forgiven, David. I hope you learn from your mistake. Never do this again. >> David hugged his mom after he apologized and learned from his mistake. When David grew up to be a police

This is why you should not be watching The Sopranos. >> When his wife, Julie, came into Timmy's room to see what was going on, David explained about his frustration. >> I don't understand, Julie. Why is our

4:38 son, Timmy, acting so, um, adultish? Why doesn't Timmy play children's toys and children's learning shows like normal kids do? He's only interested in adult things. >> Julie thought for a moment and understood David's frustration. >> Well, David, I can understand you're frustrated about Timmy's adultish behavior, but weren't you acting adultish yourself when you were a little kid? >> Oh, that was one time that I was acting kind of adultish when my mom caught me watching Cops on TV and then insisted me to watch Barney and Friends instead. Well, okay. I will admit that I was acting like that, just like my son is acting same way. I guess my adultish behavior trait runs in the family. >> All I got to say is, like father, like

5:25 son. >> David and Julie both laughed. David happily picked up Timmy out from the crib. David and his son, Timmy, both laughed and giggled with joy. Even though David and Timmy both had adultish behaviors inherited in among them, they were loved as a father and son bonding. >> [music] >> Hey.
