This video made me choke on my tears, I'm a teenager, and i see my parents not as vulnerable as this, fighting to impart her/his lesson in a stronger way. When they are old and vulnerable u look back and say,"oh y didnt i see my parents pure love for me!? They meant my good" and yes they mean our good but believe me, parents can give you alot of pain, Not only vice versa!!

A sense of loss still deeply felt...
I wonder who can view this without a tear and the empty feeling of just wanting to hug one's father just once again. If only that were possible. While this may be nothing more than an illustrative video, it strikes home. Who can ever know before we lose our loved ones, especially our parents, how our lives will change. It's a "hole that can not be filled" no matter how hard we try. Honor thy parents for the lessons that they teach are timeless and the love that they have bestowed is the source of who and what we are. B'H'

Why not read, study, and live by Torah?

When an elderly person asks a question 21 times, believe me it's not for attention. Many elderly don't remember that they have already asked the question a second ago. It certainly isn't intended to be cute! It's sad and tragic and if these elderly people knew that they were repeating themselves so often, they would be horrified. I think the message you should learn from this is that just as a parent has (or should have) infinite patience for a young child, so an adult child needs infinite patience for an elderly parent!

a very moving, beautiful short
For those whom no longer have their fathers with them, it brings back all the memories they shared, and all the memories they have missed. For those who have children, it makes you want to create more memories, and enjoy those you already have. Grand children is an even greater blessing. Thank you for sending to me...

A Marvelous Father's Day Reminder To All
This should be made into a paid advertisement of sorts to be shown on a major television network just prior to Father's Day...or really at anytime of the year...to impress this painful reality to society, and to enlighten everyone. Often in the busy hustle and bustle of our life today, people react without thinking of the consequences of their actions and even miss seeing the pain that they have caused reflected in the eyes of their elderly parents. This points out the error of their ways and could remedy someones behavior and the pain all to often suffered by a loving mother or father...before it is too late in time to make ammends.

Taking Father For Granted
This made me sad. Also made me think. Though my dad has gone to the olam haba, I still have my mother, to which I am grateful to the Almighty. Now that I am in my 50's and my mother is in her 70's, I see things differently than when I was younger, and I have come to appreciate my mother more. Be thankful for your parents if they are still alive and show respect. Remember we are to treat others as we would have them treat us.

kids' questions
Reminds me of how much children at the park I work at ask the same question to me numerous times such as "when is the carousel open?, when is the carousel open?..." It's just part of a child's development to ask the same question over and over again not knowing whether he/she heard it the first time. That's how children will emulate the world around them...Now, if only children were a lot more grateful of their fathers and mothers, they would be less likely to take them for granted and a given in life...As our parents age, I'm somewhat reminded of what my brother used to tell my folks: "it's your nursing home I'm putting you in." All in all, always love and honor your mother and father unconditionally, regardless of the circumstances of the relationship.

Just understand and dont complain
Whenever we see something good online there are always annoying people (yes, that means some of you guys) commentating in a mocking rude way and mess up every bit of the meaning and the sweetness that is so rare in this world. Don't complain, don't criticize, dont insult, don't mock because you just don't understand that these little bits of heaven are special to others. This video is sweet, I never hug my mom and dad anymore, I wish I could.

Give your father attention...
When a child asks a question 21 times he is being cute. When a father asks a question 21 times he is being an old needy man that needs attention. While it's great to give your father the attention that he needs in a manner that is appropriate, it is impossible to consider it cute if he were to act like a three year old!

sooo touching

finally the son saw...
This is so good to see a son be able to admit his father means so much to him and to show it. 11 years ago my father, 91, passed away and I still miss him so very much on Father's Day.
