A divorced father angrily restrains himself form his wife and child, and takes out his emotions on all others.
Twilight rises up to help the son of the family by getting his parents to reconcile, but she soon learns that pride is a big pill to swallow, especially when she hears what happened and why the family separated.
Lessons:
-If your current arrangements are just fine, there's no need for any drastic changes.
-Taking away something someone holds dear can be quite a cost to pay
-Forcing someone to swallow their pride and become someone they just don't want to be, may only strengthen their stubbornness.
-Some people cannot be persuaded to change. They cannot be bought, badgered, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some people just carry the grudge forever.
Excelente.
