00:00You remember the first dog we had?
00:03I went to the pet shop to buy one of those collars that have spikes on them.
00:07You turn on the leash and it hurts.
00:11But it only hurts when it disobeys.
00:16People think that those collars are cruel.
00:19I think it's the other collars that are cruel.
00:23Because they create dogs that misbehave.
00:27You know what I think?
00:28I think that I didn't hit you hard enough.
00:31So as a father,
00:35that is my fault.
00:36And I'm sorry.
00:43I hate my kids.
00:46May as well come out and say it.
00:48Blame it on the rain that was falling, falling.

01:17That's why it was so hard on us.
01:23But I suddenly saw how cruel it was.
01:27What was going on in that house?
01:32And it's never gonna end.
01:34You can never escape from it.
01:43And I was always gonna choose my brother over my parents.
01:51I see what happens
01:54when kids don't get the nurturing they need.
