I don't know who's behind the channel, but I am very grateful for these movies. They are a big help for young men and they help preserve good values like discipline, respect for parents, friendship, hard work and character. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
@@alanlado1602 Yeah, I’m not agreeing to all that. It’s absolutely wrong to smoke cigarettes around children, but I realize that most people didn’t know just how bad cigarette smoke was at this time. Especially not secondhand smoke. They probably thought it was harmless.
Like father like son. Round & round it goes . Kids are representations of their parents upbringing . It takes work & some parents don't bother & blame it on mental illness . Watch super nanny she doesn't teach the kids she teaches the parents what they are lacking . Structure , patience, guidance & communication.
You can't just conveniently blame awful behavior on the parents. Example: here is a family with 3 children. Two of the kids grow up to be happy, well adjusted, productive members of society. The other kid is a drug addicted jail bird who beats his wife. All 3 kids had the same upbringing. Could it be that the problem child just made his own bad decisions?
The whole point of the movie, clearly from the framing of the story, is to portray Dave in a sympathetic light as an undeveloped youth with external sources of his developmental obstacles clearly portrayed. The opening scroll makes explicit that it is about the social pressures that cause problems. It is not a movie meant to shame teenagers or push on immature people the responsibility for correcting themselves. It is meant to make parents think more about what their children are going through and think twice about how you treat your children and what the consequences are. Instead most people react by joining in the chain of bullying by blaming the immature or pseudo-clinical namecalling trying to out bully the latest link even when it is a contrived fictional character used as a prop in a thought experiment, revealing their own emotional immaturity. The point of the creators was to ask the audience, What would YOU have done to help Dave to prevent this? Instead, the modern audience misses all the cues and projects their own intentions and just takes it as a horror show exhibit to dramatically exemplify bad behavior for the entertainment of morbid curiosity.
"Dave" is the kind of nut who will beat up a woman, the jealous posessive kind that tries to isolate her, she'll wind up in the hospital or worse- THIS is the age where all that crap starts, you could see by his actions on the sidewalk when he kicks his bike over and storms off. And then later he vandalizes the other guys car in a rage and gets caught! Dang, wish the film was long enough to see Dave get his punishment for vandalizing the car!
I think the reason why Dave is immature is because his dad is immature. His mom mentioned that Dave looks up to his father and wants to be like him. Well, Dave is just like his father.
Exactly! Which is probably why the camera zooms on the father when the narrator asks the question ”what could have prevented dave’s immaturity?" Dave and his father get frustrated and can only come up with desperate and helpless solutions: grabbing the arm of your child in a threatening manner to make him mature up; slashing a tire to prevent a date lol. Dave is a perfect copy of his father. I wish they’d have shown how his dad should’ve acted instead...
His dad is as mature as any dad in the day. You have to remember, they lived through the Great Depression, WW II, and maybe his dad got knocked off in WW I and/or his mom died in the Spanish flu epidemic, or his sister died of polio .Impossible for you to even imagine, eh?
I don't think your idea holds water, his father was acting the best a father could. And for that day and age I think he was being quite patient and tolerant with his son, who at his age should already face up and show more maturity.
@@alanlado1602but that wasn’t how it was/is. His Dad did try to apologize to his son, I seen that the Dad also got angry when his son continued to be stubborn. How did you think the Dad could have done better in this situation?
@@poetcomic1 lol, huge sarcasm. Why deny. His father reached that stage where he thinks his boy is a petty criminal. Actually this father is a disciplinarian but fails to give a role model for his son and fails to interact in a positive manner with him. Some father think they bring the money, and that's enough, it isn't for his boy.
It's hard to deal with rejection a lot of times, but being sore about it won't do anyone any good. It does take time to get over anyone or anything that upsets any individual. And yes, I see Richard from The Patty Duke Show(1963-66). 😁
Can we just applaud Canada for making emotional responsibility shows then and currently to this day . PBS kids shows I've noticed are filmed in Canada. At least they open a dialogue for mental health segments
dave has borderline personality disorder. The rejection sensitivity dysphoria, impulsivity, unstable relationships, and keying his ex's new BF's car gave it away
What a brat Dave is. He'll spend his life blaming everyone else for everything that goes wrong. His Dad's a brat as well, but he has a point about the car, it's fair enough that he doesn't let his son drive it.
This video doesn't really give much of a resolution and leaves it on a difficult part. If we can just have it so that we see what the solution is, then it would be very helpful.
I think the reason why Dave is so immature is that his parents were overprotective of him and not permissive enough. Their toxic parenting style is what stunted his growth. But, on the same token, I still think that this yelling and tire slashing is still unjustifiable. The dude is a criminal, and even I wouldn’t do that to anybody’s property, especially if I wouldn’t want somebody doing that to me. I’d be pretty upset if somebody punctured my tire!
@@needles1987 Wow! Sorry about your situation! You have my feels. I too was in the same predicament and still am. I turned into an age regressor because of that.
@@firstpeter31822 They would tell me that they would start treating me like an adult when I start acting like one, but they would never follow through with it. They wouldn't let me make my own mistakes. To this very day, I have anger management issues because of how they raised me.
@@luisreyes1963 Women are more depressed today then they were back then. Women today want the luxuries men have with none of the downsides. Women today don't want to live like the peasant men back then did, even though that's what the majority were like. Besides, why do you think feminism took so long to happen? Women aren't on the draft today and aren't fighting to be a part of it, even though men are. Feminism took so long to happen because women didn't and still don't want to deal with the possibilities of war, so they found loopholes around it.
@Roswold Ferrugia The racism isn't what made the decade so great, and I wouldn't call everything sexism. I can show you what I mean about the sexism if you want, but isn't it more odd that etiquette started dying when racism started dying? I can't wrap my head around that one...
This reminded me of my older brother growing up. He was complete doooch and pick on me until I got older I gave him a taste of his own medicine and talk back to him whenever he tried to screw with me. But he would explode like a day later or week like a crazy person. He's still that way 50 years later a big bark but no bite.
When that selfish Dave kicked the bike I felt so bad for it like what did that bike do the poor bike Dave should go to jail for that and the bike should sue
That looks like a grown-up version of Eddy monster.The dad should’ve been walking up the stairs with a belt, It would’ve been more of a reflection of the times and how they dealt with most everything and kids
Im totally the exact same way as dad about driving with my daughter. I was very selective with the use of my car because is she had an accident it would be the end of the world. 😂 my mom on the other hand was more like "here! Take the car! Just leave!" 😅😂 she would be 12 or 13 years old when this was made..🤣🤣🤣 this was made for her!😂
To me, born October 22, 1957, the very scene is at 0:15/19:45 is the most important! Depending on the exact time sequencing, I must have already reached 1 year of age, or somewhat before. At the very moment of egressing outside the school building, the SUN broke out of the covering Veil of Clouds to reflect SUNLIGHT on the Door's lower glass pane. These 2 seemed hurrying to get out to the parking lot beyond the steps down to pavement level. The young man is holding textbooks in both hands, either His own, or hers, or both. his Girl friend to his right has a MICKEY MOUSE like Bonnet on her tied up Hair. You don't see High Schoolers so dressed like that anymore, save at the prom. Who were these TWO? Are they still alive in 2022?
It bothers me that the film offers no solutions. Leaves you hangin'. I think the emotional insecurities of both the girl and the boy stem from their upbringings and family dynamics, and may be 'set' by this age. So is the boy destined for a life of crime?
I think they play this film & discuss the issues . Go Canada for making emotional responsible movies. Most PBS kids show that are about handling ur emotions are still made in Canada to this day.
Is there a video that discusses the solution to this set of conflicts? Especially regarding David’s emotional immaturity and his father’s emotional immaturity. It seems they both have a bunch of unresolved emotions or trauma. We see some of the stuff that David goes through but I believe the dad has gone through some stuff too to cause him to behave immaturely as well.
His father's emotional immaturity? Dave's father is the best character in the whole movie. He was honest and sincere in his desire to help him and was resolute to discipline his son because of his bad attitude, which is the best way to straighten up a man,
@@alanlado1602 I was thinking the father was emotionally immature as well because he seemed to try to get things done through pressure, intimidation, and coercion, rather than patience, kindness, and tolerance. An example of immaturity was when he got upset when the son didn't want to go to the game with him. If the son doesn't want to go, it is up to the son. It was not right for the father to get aggressive and angry over it and throw a sort of adult tantrum. The son has every right not to go to the game if he doesn't want to; a child is not a parent's servant or property and doesn’t have to obey their parents' every command. The scene reminded me of someone getting angry with another person when they don't forgive them. This shows a sense of entitlement because the person isn't entitled to the other person forgiving them; it is up to that person to decide if they want to forgive them or not. Overall, I thought the father seemed quick to anger and quick to snap. He tended to not be mindful of the thoughts and feelings of others, often overlooking them and what they might be going through emotionally and psychologically. I think one of the best ways to discipline others is to lead by example, through support, kindness, wisdom, and encouragement. The father did not demonstrate this type of behavior or attitude. Disciplining kids is hard work and being harsh and aggressive about it is not the best way to go about it. It is the easy, lazy, and immature way of going about it. The hard but right way of going about it is to do it with patience, kindness, and integrity. The immature person wants the quick and easy solution to something rather than putting the hard work in, but the mature person is willing to put the work in. Lastly, an emotionally immature person doesn't take into consideration how they might be affecting those around them. A combination of all of these points is why I found the father to be emotionally immature. The reply is long and lengthy but I hope you understand my viewpoint. May God bless us and guide us.
@@shaheer_ghaziI agree with your assessment. The father getting upset at the son not wanting to go to the game showed me you were right, and where Dave most likely got his rage from. These are really good skits to learn about what not to do.
@@shaheer_ghazi Indeed! We were told a number of times that part of the issue was "too high expectations". And even when he does confront his son, he treats him like a 5 year old, ironically. "Let's go to the game together!" instead of something that might build comradarie. Also, he was a boy himself once, and apparently Dave had been dating the girl for years, he should know some of the pain of what that is like and sympathize with his son. Instead they both push each other way, leading to the situation where it ends up.
People here in the comment section are being so harsh on Dave. But I actually feel bad for him. He just wants to livet he life like everyone else, but his father always makes him feel depressed and immature. And absolutely noone is talking about how the girl had dumped Dave for a random guy instead of helping him out. This shows how lowly we have fallen as a society, where the depressed has no place at all to live normally
In The ALBERT Chronicles, is this Door Scene at 0:15/19:45, showing these 2 EGRESSING OUT, the MALE Adolescent holding the Books in His clasping Hands, His GIRL Friend holding Her PURSE, the earliest Recorded Moment of Action, realized by the then Infant?
You know I thought Dave looked so good looking in the thumbnail. I surely hoped he was going to be the good guy.. I guess you cant have both all the time. But I can definitely see who he got that attitude from, and who empowered him... not so good duo of parents
"How did Dave end up in this situation?" Well, not through 'emotional instability', that's for sure. His girlfriend left him for someone else without ever thinking to address her grievances with him before she set up a date with another guy behind his back. His so called friends are all gossiping about how he isn't any good at the one thing he's passionate about. His father is controlling and, seeing his son upset at the loss of his girlfriend, decided to throw his support to the kid that snatched his girlfriend out from under him. Dave is not the problem. "Why can't he just accept life as it is?" Why should he accept the people he cares about steamrolling him and kicking him while he's down? He shouldn't have slashed the tires, but if you tell someone they're selfish and unstable and good-for-nothing all the time, eventually they'll believe it and their behaviour will reflect it. Everyone in his life thought they could do him dirty and expected him to take it and were shocked when he retaliated. Then they brand him as crazy. It's classic gaslighting. Much more, Dave will end up in the doctor's office, looking down the sharp end of an ice pick and everyone'll say what a tragedy it was.
@@needles1987 The foundation of ‘Woke Culture’ is victimhood, whether real or feigned dearest one. Has nothing to do with awareness of social injustice, but everything to do with ego. Its promoted a culture where everyone wants to be a victim and when everyone wants to be a victim, a significant section of them will naturally invent crimes to suit their agenda. It’s a great injustice to actual victims who have very good reasons to feel victimized. They deserve every bit of our empathy and compassion. However, in Woke Culture, people who do not deserve it see the empathy and compassion that is accorded to victims as an incentive to pretend to be victims themselves. It’s narcissistic and immensely selfish. And I believe it will eventually lead to the ultimate end of the progressive supremacist movement that has held the reigns for so long. JMO.
Poor Dave! My heart goes out to him! No one understands him. That girl who dumped him was a superficial b××××. She even had Jim waiting around the corner as she was dumping him. Well, in my version of the ending, Dave's dad did go up to Dave's room and they fought and it was like Rebel without a cause and Dave stormed out of the house. He was caught and punished, but the next day at school that lovely sophomore girl approached Dave and they got super friendly. She had her own car so she drove Dave home and Dave announced he was in love. Much to the happiness of his parents, who excused his punishment! Dave and her started going together and he became the envy of all his friends. She encouraged him to try out for track which he excelled at over football and he became a track star! Everyone loved him! Meanwhile, the girl who dumped him got pregnant by Jim and they were both thrown out of their homes, became high school dropouts and were forced to live in the ghetto. Dave graduated with honors went on to college and became a high powered attorney and married that lovely sophomore. They became millionaires! Karma is a b×××× and I'm team Dave all the way! He's better looking than Jim anyway.
Dave has bad stars. Afflicted 5th, and 11th houses. I 'm thinking Saturn and Venus and maybe Uranus involved. This is long term stuff. Dad's better off laying off of him for a few years. Mental age 11. That chick dodged a bullet.
Dave obviously has borderline personality disorder. He's extremely impulsive, has rejection sensitivity dysphoria, and slashed the tires of his ex's new boyfriend's car. His relationships at home also seem unstable
Dave clearly has impulsive Borderline Personality disorder. The rejection sensitivity dysphoria, the unstable relationships, stabbing the tires of the guy who took out his ex's car, and his dad about to go spank him gave it away.
Agreed! Dave is so cute and she wasn't even good looking. Why was he broken hearted over her? He probably ended up doing better..like in my version of the ending lol.
Exactly! Nobody is going to love you as much as Jesus Christ, and nobody is going to be able to help you like a professional doctor! This poor kid needs help to get right back on track!
These videos are really helping me get my life together
That’s kind of sad.
Not sad at all. Pretty cool actually!

Is there a video that discusses the solution to this set of conflicts? Especially regarding David’s emotional immaturity and his father’s emotional immaturity. It seems they both have a bunch of unresolved emotions or trauma. We see some of the stuff that David goes through but I believe the dad has gone through some stuff too to cause him to behave immaturely as well.
His father's emotional immaturity? Dave's father is the best character in the whole movie. He was honest and sincere in his desire to help him and was resolute to discipline his son because of his bad attitude, which is the best way to straighten up a man,
@@alanlado1602 I was thinking the father was emotionally immature as well because he seemed to try to get things done through pressure, intimidation, and coercion, rather than patience, kindness, and tolerance.
An example of immaturity was when he got upset when the son didn't want to go to the game with him. If the son doesn't want to go, it is up to the son. It was not right for the father to get aggressive and angry over it and throw a sort of adult tantrum. The son has every right not to go to the game if he doesn't want to; a child is not a parent's servant or property and doesn’t have to obey their parents' every command.
The scene reminded me of someone getting angry with another person when they don't forgive them. This shows a sense of entitlement because the person isn't entitled to the other person forgiving them; it is up to that person to decide if they want to forgive them or not.
Overall, I thought the father seemed quick to anger and quick to snap. He tended to not be mindful of the thoughts and feelings of others, often overlooking them and what they might be going through emotionally and psychologically.
I think one of the best ways to discipline others is to lead by example, through support, kindness, wisdom, and encouragement. The father did not demonstrate this type of behavior or attitude. Disciplining kids is hard work and being harsh and aggressive about it is not the best way to go about it. It is the easy, lazy, and immature way of going about it. The hard but right way of going about it is to do it with patience, kindness, and integrity. The immature person wants the quick and easy solution to something rather than putting the hard work in, but the mature person is willing to put the work in.
Lastly, an emotionally immature person doesn't take into consideration how they might be affecting those around them.
A combination of all of these points is why I found the father to be emotionally immature. The reply is long and lengthy but I hope you understand my viewpoint. May God bless us and guide us.
@@shaheer_ghaziI agree with your assessment. The father getting upset at the son not wanting to go to the game showed me you were right, and where Dave most likely got his rage from. These are really good skits to learn about what not to do.
@@shaheer_ghazi Indeed! We were told a number of times that part of the issue was "too high expectations". And even when he does confront his son, he treats him like a 5 year old, ironically. "Let's go to the game together!" instead of something that might build comradarie. Also, he was a boy himself once, and apparently Dave had been dating the girl for years, he should know some of the pain of what that is like and sympathize with his son.
Instead they both push each other way, leading to the situation where it ends up.
I don't know
People here in the comment section are being so harsh on Dave. But I actually feel bad for him. He just wants to livet he life like everyone else, but his father always makes him feel depressed and immature. And absolutely noone is talking about how the girl had dumped Dave for a random guy instead of helping him out. This shows how lowly we have fallen as a society, where the depressed has no place at all to live normally
why is the volume SO LOW
"SHES ONLY 14, YOU'D NEVER KNOW IT" ahem ... she looks 20 to me!
Does anyone one know the title of the music at the very beginning?
Percy Kid Pester..the Dad used to be on CBC tv in Canada on a kids show and played a black capped villian.
That's Ed McNamara?
6:38 Mary Wickes Jr. LOL
Dave is cute but crazy as a roach.
Dave Dave you don't stick around to rip off the whitewall
The boy is a walking 🚶♀️ red flag 🏃♂️💨
That girl Jill is a homely dog. Her friend that shows up at the table at the diner last was gorgeous.
It's too bad you can't hear it. I'm sure I would've enjoyed it a lot better.
So basically incel women-hating Reddit mods have always existed 💀
Anybody else think Dave looks like and talks like Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christenson)?
In The ALBERT Chronicles, is this Door Scene at 0:15/19:45, showing these 2 EGRESSING OUT, the MALE Adolescent holding the Books in His clasping Hands, His GIRL Friend holding Her PURSE, the earliest Recorded Moment of Action, realized by the then Infant?
I think Dave's big hair is causing brain wave disturbances.
So she literally made plans to date another guy while she was still with her boyfriend and broke up with him when he asked her about it?
Posted in the wrong aspect ratio -- all stretched out sideways. Should be 4:3, not 16:9
You know I thought Dave looked so good looking in the thumbnail. I surely hoped he was going to be the good guy.. I guess you cant have both all the time. But I can definitely see who he got that attitude from, and who empowered him... not so good duo of parents
Wait ... Betty broke up with Archie to date Reggie?
Jill looks familiar to me, like I’ve seen her in a TV show.
She was in As the World Turns.
BPD 😢
This guy reminds me of Nate from Euphoria 😭
Emotional Maturity for kids these days
Give credit where credit is due, not all 6-year-old boys know what impertinence means.
“She’s only 14” “..you’re telling me WOW” why’d your steady leave you? Cause you’re a creep or?…
Dave’s a nut job and stalker ....needs a good shrink lol
yup! he has untreated borderline personality disorder
"How did Dave end up in this situation?" Well, not through 'emotional instability', that's for sure. His girlfriend left him for someone else without ever thinking to address her grievances with him before she set up a date with another guy behind his back. His so called friends are all gossiping about how he isn't any good at the one thing he's passionate about. His father is controlling and, seeing his son upset at the loss of his girlfriend, decided to throw his support to the kid that snatched his girlfriend out from under him. Dave is not the problem. "Why can't he just accept life as it is?" Why should he accept the people he cares about steamrolling him and kicking him while he's down? He shouldn't have slashed the tires, but if you tell someone they're selfish and unstable and good-for-nothing all the time, eventually they'll believe it and their behaviour will reflect it. Everyone in his life thought they could do him dirty and expected him to take it and were shocked when he retaliated. Then they brand him as crazy. It's classic gaslighting. Much more, Dave will end up in the doctor's office, looking down the sharp end of an ice pick and everyone'll say what a tragedy it was.
Was he going to go to boarding school?
Poor Dave.
At the end, is the dad going upstairs to whip his son or ream him a new one?
Dude needs to run away and join a commune.
The guy playing Dave is doing a great acting job. He typifies the ‘woke’ generation today. A childish miserable lot.
You saw these films when they were new, didn't you?
@@timothyhh No. Born in 1992
That's not what woke means.
@@larkatmic "Woke" means aware of social issues, such as racism and inequality.
@@needles1987 The foundation of ‘Woke Culture’ is victimhood, whether real or feigned dearest one. Has nothing to do with awareness of social injustice, but everything to do with ego. Its promoted a culture where everyone wants to be a victim and when everyone wants to be a victim, a significant section of them will naturally invent crimes to suit their agenda. It’s a great injustice to actual victims who have very good reasons to feel victimized. They deserve every bit of our empathy and compassion. However, in Woke Culture, people who do not deserve it see the empathy and compassion that is accorded to victims as an incentive to pretend to be victims themselves. It’s narcissistic and immensely selfish. And I believe it will eventually lead to the ultimate end of the progressive supremacist movement that has held the reigns for so long. JMO.
Poor Dave! My heart goes out to him! No one understands him. That girl who dumped him was a superficial b××××. She even had Jim waiting around the corner as she was dumping him. Well, in my version of the ending, Dave's dad did go up to Dave's room and they fought and it was like Rebel without a cause and Dave stormed out of the house. He was caught and punished, but the next day at school that lovely sophomore girl approached Dave and they got super friendly. She had her own car so she drove Dave home and Dave announced he was in love. Much to the happiness of his parents, who excused his punishment! Dave and her started going together and he became the envy of all his friends. She encouraged him to try out for track which he excelled at over football and he became a track star! Everyone loved him! Meanwhile, the girl who dumped him got pregnant by Jim and they were both thrown out of their homes, became high school dropouts and were forced to live in the ghetto. Dave graduated with honors went on to college and became a high powered attorney and married that lovely sophomore. They became millionaires! Karma is a b×××× and I'm team Dave all the way! He's better looking than Jim anyway.
Wow.
This actually made me feel better. Honestly, the little movie depressed me!
jesus christ lmfao
Dave has bad stars. Afflicted 5th, and 11th houses. I 'm thinking Saturn and Venus and maybe Uranus involved. This is long term stuff. Dad's better off laying off of him for a few years. Mental age 11. That chick dodged a bullet.
Dave obviously has borderline personality disorder. He's extremely impulsive, has rejection sensitivity dysphoria, and slashed the tires of his ex's new boyfriend's car. His relationships at home also seem unstable
@@sheagaier7582 Yes those things are ruled by 4th, 5th, and 11th houses.
Then, his dad beats the shit out of him and he finally learns the lesson once and for all.
you can't beat out borderline personality disorder.
Dave clearly has impulsive Borderline Personality disorder. The rejection sensitivity dysphoria, the unstable relationships, stabbing the tires of the guy who took out his ex's car, and his dad about to go spank him gave it away.
Good theories, people in the 50s didn't behave like this. Girls didn't break up.
that girl is mean
Ugly too.
I think both are "emotionally immature", which they ARE kids...
Agreed! Dave is so cute and she wasn't even good looking. Why was he broken hearted over her? He probably ended up doing better..like in my version of the ending lol.
She's such a dog. Not even remotely attractive! The only pretty girl was the friend at the diner that showed up late.
@@poe250 Do you realize these people are actors ? you are judging an actor over the character she is playing, do you realize that is immature ?
That’s called hypergamy
He desperately needs two things
Jesus Christ
And a professional therapist
Exactly! Nobody is going to love you as much as Jesus Christ, and nobody is going to be able to help you like a professional doctor!
This poor kid needs help to get right back on track!
The sad thing is he already has Jesus Christ…..no doubt in my mind….and he’s still the way he is.
yup! he def has borderline personality so he def needs DBT
@@melindahall5062 thats borderline personality for you!
Arse whupping is what comes next
Stuff like this, makes me glad I decided not to have children.
😂😂
i think the high waist on Dave's pants was the root cause
Man! You are better off! For the rest of your life you'd be explaining your wife isn't a mongaloid.
These are the baby boomers that the smartphone glue generation love to despise.
Actually, they are more Silent Generation people.

The girl is the main source of the problem. Shw should have been tagged as a crazy girl.
For breaking up? Let her live jeez
@OldTimeTv Another great movie to learn from & to appreciate... What a great choice of movie topics you choose ✌😇🎟
