Like Father Like... wait your my son?

Raising children is not easy, it’s freaking hard. Kids can’t help but have certain issues as a result of parenting, because nobody can parent perfectly. Then there is the whole problem with technique, because no two parents are exactly alike. So naturally when the two couples in Like Father Like Son met their biological children for the first time there was some major differences between the parents and their children. Parenting methods did not change yet they were dealing with different children. Who knows what kind of effects that could have. One might be quick to be horrified by the parenting methods of the richer father, his words often seemed poorly chosen with both children. A good example of this is when he said that the other family loved kaito (or however it’s spelled) more than he did, which broke the little kids heart no doubt. Let’s wait a second, this may have been the wrong thing to say but what were his intentions in those harmful words? They were not to intentionally harm the boy for the fun of it, I think we can agree on that. His words may have been chosen to make the boy want to live with the other family more and move on quicker. I am not trying to defend any of the hurtful words of the character as right, but rather sharing that he struggled with parental skills, and was trying his best.
