a scene in the previously mentioned movie showed one of the film's main characters killing her father saying " He was a bastard, but he was still my father."

yuh know a thought like that CANT compute in my head. I can tell you I know nothing about my father. He used to drink a lot, he used to read a lot of papers, he loves ole time calypso.

He was selfish and weak. He broke a lot of promises. He put some woman before his own children and she took all his money and left him high and dry. He's very set in his ways and is of the opinion that the children are supposed to show their love for their father. STEUPS.
I've done well so far without my father. My mother was both a mother and father to me and for that I will forvever grateful. I am the woman that I am because of her. I have seen the good things she has done and followed her example and I have seen the dumb things she has done and vowed never to do it.

Parents...*sigh* they can really mess you up...
