19 分钟I can remember it like it was yesterday.
My dad is in his chair.
I think every father has their designated spot in Thouse.
My dad was in his and I'm in my parents' living room.
I'm probably 17 and I am upset.
I am disagreeing vocally with a judgment call he had made.
I don't remember about what.
It might have been how late I could stay out my curfew or whether I could or could not go to a friend's house.
I don't know.
Whatever it was,
I was very upset about it and we had had some back and forth and he eventually said no. No,
Jefferson, the answer is no. And what did I do at the age of 17?
I pushed back again.
And this is what he told me.
He took a breath and he said, you don't have to like it.
I mean, he smiled even doing that.
He said, you don't have to like it.
You just need to understand it.
