Sometimes kids can suffer without even knowing they are suffering.

They killed dr Craig (is that his name?) I loved him! I wanted him and Mandy to get together! He deserved so much better! 😭

Those bumbles can, I'm told and believe, with proper care and love, turn into very nice people.

I never played a bricklayer, so 'Life with Father' turned out to be life with a kind of 'father' indeed.

There is no greater satisfaction for an actor than performing before a live audience, to cope with an audience from the beginning of a performance to the end.  First they may be coughing, rustling in their seats, flipping pages in their programs, and wondering if the play is going to be worth the price of the tickets.  And then you slowly but surely command their attention with your stage presence, your focus, and your conviction.  Finally it is so quiet you know you have their full attention.  You can let your acting impulses take over and carry you wherever they will, for as far as the audience is concerned you can do no wrong.

'Life with Father' ... was a snapshot of a family in the 1890s headed by a father whose impossible standards create humorous situations with all of the other characters in the show.  It was the first sitcom, if you will.  And America loved it.

I know, at this point, I must sound like some kind of idiot.  Did it never occur to me to tell my mother I didn't want to do this?  The kindest thing I can say on my own behalf is that I was a young man who, from a very early age, was taught to take directions from a mother I must have loved or feared very much.  Probably both.  This was the pattern of my life throughout my childhood, in the army, and even in college:  following someone else's instructions or suggestions without instigating anything myself.  I noticed that I was able to break the pattern when I finally learned to say no, and that became a life-long pattern in and of itself.
