The same goes for this guy. He said something that was true. When you are taught since young age of something wrong it's really hard to correct it. It was not about Ephram not being able to play. It was about his wrong habits. Habits that Ephram had learnt since young age. Things that he had almost encoded in him. That's really difficult to correct because to him it's like second nature. What he said about posture is also very true. That's something that you learn very early on and it's really difficult to correct such thing if you've used to do this for most of your life. __________________

^^ Yes, it totally happens in real life. It was realistic on the show.
Yes, Harold's view of Ephram was way bigger than the purple-haired boy of the doctor that annoyed him. I think that's why the scene between Harold and Amy on Thanksgiving was so profound. Harold telling Amy she needed to make a decision. You could also tell Harold was warming up to Ephram somewhat back then too. I don't think Harold at that time thought Amy would turn her back on Colin but naturally you could tell Harold was starting to see things pretty clearly even if his "plans" for Amy were still there.

But initially she was going to be really dark, and her part would be short-term. |

Harold, in general was a loving, caring father but he also picked really bad times to turn his back on his children. He treated Bright like crap for such a long stretch of time when Bright would screw up. He acted like he wasn't worthy of a father at times, it was so bad. Turning his back on Amy when she was at her lowest with the depression as well. It's ironic that Harold was like this when you compare Andy as a father. He was a horrible father in New York but completely changed when they moved to Everwood. Even with the gross Madison disaster, Andy made so many mistakes with that situation as we know. But we could never, not even for a second, think he was doing that out of spite. He tried to make the situation go away because he loved Ephram and wanted the best for him. His love and loyalty went overboard in this case but he still made those mistakes out of love. I have to wonder how Harold would have reacted if Bright would have gotten Madison or someone like her pregnant. Quote:

In this case however Amy could have talked to Harold if he was willing to listen. The problem was that he wasn't. And Amy was not that close to Rose like she was with Harold. At least not at that time. She became closer in Season 4 I think. Quote:
On the other hand we have Harold who seems to be the very opposite of Andy. The dedicated loving father. Problem was his dedication wasn't always directed in the correct places. Harold's dedication sometimes turned out to be the bad thing for his kids. Harold's strong feelings towards Amy is the thing that stopped him from being supportive whens he was depressed. The conclusion is that balance is needed in both cases. Every parent needs to find the balance. Both Andy and Harold had to do it. They started from different points, but had to end in the same place - the middle. __________________

Berlanti also demonstrated this when the abortion episode came up. Everyone expected Andy to be the one who could step up and go there... what a twist, it was Harold that went there. Balance, not being too set in your ways, environmental issues sometimes even changing your views from minute to minute. Extremes aren't good, things being set in stone aren't good. Balance, room to change and go with the flow is the best approach. |
