Of course, I still identify with the kid, especially with my overt distaste of all things Boomer, but as the father of a thirteen year old, I can also sympathize to a certain degree with father. Lord knows the possibility of having your son turn into Dee Snider would be pretty terrifying and could drive a man to all sorts of tantrum throwing. The lesson here, of course, that when we act based on our fears, we can sometimes make those very apprehensions come true. Is there nothing Twisted Sister can't teach us?
