There’s something really wholesome about Opie not being good at tantrums. Like deep down, he respects his Dad too much to go through with it. “Don’t get your clothes all dirty.” Sits up with a pout.

That spoiled brat was frightening in his intensity and vehemence. What would he be like when he got older?

Let's hope the trip to the woodshed would do him some good.

He only wants his bike and doesn't care what happens to his father or anyone else for that matter. Only his wants and needs matter to him.

[@chrispnw2547]

When Andy told the father (present and not MIA) he was responsible for his boy's actions and if he would not do it, maybe he should lock the father up, I was beyond shocked. It appears something has gone wrong in America. Many parents refuse to take full responsibility for their children's behavior or condone poor behavior. If we held parents fully responsible and jailed them for not doing their job, I suspect things may change.

[@LuvvyDuck]

I loved Opie's line: "I don't wanna say. After all, he IS one of my own kind!" It's really funny because it's so natural and innocent, like any one of us would have said. :D

The best portrayal of a father/son relationship. Andy was a model that it's a shame more dads didn't follow. He was a no-nonsense disciplinarian, made Opie work and insisted he be respectful, but ALWAYS was patient and explained why and also listened to his child and respected his feelings. Opie knew the rules[that become laws as we age]. and he feared punishment[police and jail], but not his father[society]

[@muzkat101]

I have to feel that the majority of viewers who find this video on KZbin today, are drawn to it because of the changes in parenting children from the past to how 'hands-off' parenting has become today, and of the nature of the story and the parallel of this old story as it should have been handled then compared to how parents and teachers have become soft on children in today's society in America. This parallel has much to do with how we as a society today; how we have been manipulated into coddling other's emotional outbursts rather than they being punished for their 'entitlement' mentality and behavior, rather than how they should have been handled long ago 'behind the wood shed'. But no, we (as a society) have been forced into submission to become sensitive to their 'special' needs rather than punished for their impudent, foolish, and impetuous behavior and outbursts. This has done more harm to children today than good. And I feel that it is time we stop coddling these types of children and childish adults for their whimsical behavior and lack of parenting, and finally take them all behind the proverbial woodshed for a change. This also goes for the 'modern family' that enable this style of foolishness in their households too; those parents that enable their children toward becoming society's problems later on in life. There is nothing wrong with a solid reminder from punishment when handled appropriately; I am not talking about child abuse, but of a child that does not learn the value of his or her role as a child without facing real consequences for their actions. Rules are in place for a reason, and there are consequences for breaking the rules. But in today's society, it seems as if rules are meant to be broken for the sake of their 'special needs' and 'entitlement mentality.' A child that passes through life without having to face the real consequences of their actions unpunished is destined to undermine the established set of rules and values that hold and bond us to the virtues of respect of discipline and behavior. Ultimately, an undisciplined child is bound to develop behavioral issues that later upsets and disrupts the balance of a proper society by enabling new laws that forbid punishment, and the child's misbehavior becomes normalized and protected. However, our society today is forbidden to discipline or punish these children and adults for their emotional outbursts and misbehaviors, but where in the past, by peer pressure and good parenting, their behavior would have been checked long ago behind the woodshed. I say, we need to preserve and protect the value and virtue of a good woodshed.

I was a SLAVE growing up so the idea of getting an allowance was quite foreign. If I didn't do my chores I got punished, severely. $0.25/wk for the times was pretty damn decent, and Opie should be thankful: some kids don't get paid.

[@TheLimeSoda86]

my dad always said i give you food in your belly and a roof over your head so doing chores was expected.

[@Agent1W]

Steven Thiel The funny thing about that is that when you become a parent, food and shelter is supposed to be guaranteed. If you're a dad, you're on the hook to pay for a kid's freight until he's of age, whether he does his chores or not. You're *especially* on the hook if the marriage goes down south and with it comes vaginamony and child support. It comes as no surprise when my dad gets bogged down in debt, borrowing against his harder abilities to earn, that no matter how much I play Johnny-on-the-spot with my chores, it would not ease the debt burden by a single dollar. But as it is written, "A slave is not greater than his master." Ultimately, such a fine example has made me the man I've become: a poor, fledgling man who has virtually zero debt but only has enough to put food in his stomach and a roof over his head. My dad would be proud of the way he raised me.

Mr. Wingler, would you like to continue this father and son discussion in quiet? Huh? I said, would you like to continue this in quiet? There's a real nice woodshed outback. Good old-fashioned woodshed? Real nice one.

[@jtblcksheep3376]

The irony of Andy saying “in quiet”. Trips to the Woodshed are anything but.
