    This shows us how important and special parents really are. My mom, as a single mom, has taught me, sang to me, held me, got me into a nice school, got me mental help, supported me, cared for me, tolerated me when I caused trouble, helped me, been there for me, for so many years. I owe her so much.

    • @Alpha1990Q

    • @KazukiHizushi
      @KazukiHizushi Před 10 lety +14

      Say, the father did not prioritize his son, but he did give him the essential needs... Food, a house, clothes and education... He may not have given him the attention he needed but that's because he had work therefore he's tired and needs time and effort to keep on giving him the things he needed... He wasn't successful maybe because he wasn't so smart and all such... Obviously something must have happened to the mother given she's not there...
      If you only think that this was all about the trophy, then you must be a REALLY dense person...
      Think about it, if say, he decided to have a great relationship with his child... Would the child have gotten the things he needed? Education? Food? A house? Clothes? No. He would've spent most of his time building a great relationship with his child and barely any time at work, it's effort and time consuming...
      For you to say this... You must be quite close minded... I don't mean to offend you...
      But molomosk123, if he was a foolish father... He wouldn't be so smart to name his donations after his son and to teach him that I quote "Being rich is not how much you earn, but how much you give". They may be "vague" lessons but for what's worth he understood it by himself, it's best if he learns it eventually rather than being spoon-fed all the answers and walks of life...
      With no actions or examples, really? So you think everything he did was just talk? You mean he didn't work his ass off to help his son have a better future? You mean he didn't strive to make other people feel better about themselves given that they were in a worse condition than themselves?
      If he took his child to his many outings,if he made him involved, do you think he would have time to study, to go to school, what about his school? What about his childhood? Is it just going to be the father's workplace?
      I can't believe people are this close-minded, so dense... There is more than meets the eye...

If you let a child do as they please and don't teach them to respect every person and don't punish them for bad actions, then they are spoiled bc they will have the mind set that the world revolves around them and they can do what they want with no repercussion. The 'spoiled' you are talking about is the 'get whatever you want' spoiled, but there is more then one type of spoiled. Anyone can be and is spoiled in one way or another.

    The father was very generous but a bit callous with his son. I felt very sad for the boy when he came across his father's message that said, "someday you will be a great man. This really warmed the boys heart, thinking it was for him but his father coldly says, " it's not for you". I would have given it to him & made another one. Still, a lovely story but let's not forget to encourage our own kids, even if they are able bodied and seemingly don't seem needy. They have feelings too.

      Vlad Vladyslav I don't think I missed the point at all. There is an old saying, "Charity begins at home". This boy was motherless & to a degree also felt fatherless. You can't buy love. You said it yourself,care about the other persons feelings. He didn't seem to care enough about the most important other person in his life, his son. I am not negating that the father thought only of himself. Surely it was good that he helped others, but he was blind to the needs of his own son. We all do the best we can & sometimes miss the mark. The word sin actually came from an old archery term meaning, to miss the mark. Wishing you a blessed day.

Albeit my birth surname is in Thai as it was changed to in over a century ago as always a thing supposed to be here, I'm proud to be one of Lim family, and so proud to believe like his father does.
    In Buddhism, You become a rich person because you donated in past lives. If while you donated you've made wishes for only to be rich, you'll get very rich, but your mentality won't develop as a result of those donations because mental development wasn't what you wish for. You maybe very rich but that doesn't mean you're the happiest person. In contrast, if while you're donating you think only to make people happy, you'll become a marvelous person whose heart is of gold and who would become a refuge for mass of suffering people from then and even in the further lives. The Buddha himself started his journey to become a Buddha via giving his all to people.

      Saqi Saud - not all americans have it easy. so many are living in poverty here... I think the message of this film is beautiful and universal to the goodness that mankind is capable. Let's not drag it down with racist or anti-american bigotry. There are wealth and selfish people in all parts of the world, yes some more than others.... but you're entitled to your opinion. It's funny though, I thought I'd see nothing but nice comments here, shame its devolved in to this kind of talk.

    I almost teared after this. It was so emotional and relatable. I’m 13 years old, and my dad is going to pass in about 7 years. This made me think of the sacrifices he had made just for me and my sister to be happy. I really hope that something can cure is illness and he can then live longer, as he was a good man, that strived to be the best in everything he does, although nothing is really perfect.

    Yes this father was a failure.... not because he was poor and had a physical hard job. He was wrong by not teaching his son to be proud of himself, while he was still alive. A father is supposed to teach these values to his child , while he is still alive , and not let him discover it , or guess it, when It is too late. Why did he hid the charity work from his son, instead of showing this good example of " success" ? How could a little boy understand why the father was taking his pocket money ? This where the father failed. No wonder why his son did not visit him.

  • @9f81rsd00

    The moral lesson: a gross lack of communication can mess up your son's emotional development. Seriously, showing your boy what you've been doing all this could've really helped. Instead, he hogs all the emotional gratification (of helping others) all to himself. Then he decides to surprise his boy with the truth. Posthumously. He could've used the selfless acts as common ground for building a closer relationship with his son. Then there's the motivational card: "It's not for you." Dafuq!? Could've he said something along the lines of, "This isn't for you, I still need to make another." Or maybe give that one to his kid then make another. Sorry, I know I'm spoiling this for everyone else, it's just that this story could've gone a whole lot better, the kid could've had a much, MUCH better childhood, if only his dad actually thought this through. Keeping his sickness a secret, that's fine, but the least he could've done is shared his joy (helping people) with his kid.

      the problem is that people do mistakes in real life , they really do; and this father wasn't a perfect father, he was just a normal perso who makes a lot of mistakes , hidding his truth from his son was a mistake , that doesn't make him any less than a great father ...
      however , the son didn't show any sign of gratitude to his father not even a little and this was the real tragedy in the senario .. if only he cared more of his father he might have had the chance to be part of the good work his father did ..
      saddly the world is not what we think it should be , the world is what it is and that is the wisdom of life ...
      such stories happen every where all the time , and this is a great film that spots the light on this hidden part of humanity that cinamas normally don't just because it doesn't sell tickets !

    • @9f81rsd00
      @9f81rsd00 Před 7 lety +23

      You favor the father a little too much. You fail to mention that the son himself made mistakes, errors, common to any human being and more so for a child who takes what he sees: a father who neglected him and spent more time and effort helping other people. His father never made any attempt to enlighten his son on the gravity of his own actions, choosing instead to deny his son a proper explanation. Now his son is left with a lifelong regret of never having truly reconciled with the father. And THAT is the real tragedy. How can he show gratitude when the father never made any attempt to show the son the value of his actions which would have warranted said gratitude... IF ONLY THE FATHER MADE ANY MENTION OF IT. I respect your defense of a father who meant well, but I'm sorry to say that the father made a VERY BIG mistake in how he raised his son. The proof is the regret on the kid's face. The world is what it is... unless WE CHANGE IT. I can be a real cynic sometimes... but I'd be a miserable person if it weren't for the fact that I understand how positive feelings trump negative ones any day, and this particular father left his own kid with regret, grief and guilt. And that's a shitty way of saying goodbye.

    • @AarBearCares
      @AarBearCares Před 10 lety +6

      I've learned over time that giving in "silence" is the way to go. You don't give solely to be seen in the news, magazines, radio, etc. Even if you never make it on any of those mediums, it still doesn't matter. When you are doing something good for someone else, you don't need to advise it to people. You give...because you are selfless. That's it. =]

    • @kpandong
      @kpandong Před 10 lety

      *****
      Oh yeah. Definitely. lol I didn't mean that the only way to be a selfless person is to give in silence. Of course it could be in "silence" or using the media to your advantage. My post was a reply to how the original poster phrased the message. I didn't believe it was always about the hearing yourself in the news, radio, newspaper, but how you use those resources to your advantage. =]
      Also, what I meant by "silence" wasn't really silence, as in by yourself or ONLY solo. You could be by yourself, but when I meant silence, I meant not showing off that you are giving or helping others. There are some instances when people just don't understand you as a person, just like this video, only to find out that all this time you have been using all your resources to give back to those who really needed it. That's what I meant by silence. I think we both are talking about similar things, but are just saying it in a different way. Haha!

    Being "poor" is not a mark of "goodness"

      I do not think he neglected his son. He and his son grew up with what they needed. He provided him with adequate food, shelter, clothing, and an education. They did not go without. They just didn't have as many nice things as other people. I think you just misunderstood one of the biggest points of this short film: materialism is not a sign of success or even wealth, and going without them is certainly not neglect.

    • @rayniermarkbautista5803
      @rayniermarkbautista5803 Před 10 lety +11

      Noel Zee Do you have kids? A real parent won't gonna think that way.
      The kid was the one who supported his education. Besides, the kid will never hate his dad if he is receiving the attention that he needs. If I am on that old man's shoe, I would be a full time dad and make sure I would satisfy my son and provide the remaining time and money to aid others.
      Trying to give other people/kids aid while your only child feels miserable is not a normal thing a parent would do.
      I am a parent myself so I know what I am talking about.
      The video is not even realistic.
      If the old man informed his son what's going then his son won't feel miserable during his childhood

    • @noelzee4207
      @noelzee4207 Před 10 lety +15

      Yeah, I really don't think you'd make a good parent if you think that the onus of being one means giving your kids lots of stuff.
      In the video, his father did help pay for his education. He told him to ask him when he needs money.
      His kid felt miserable because he was young and foolish. He didn't understand or appreciate what he already had. He was selfish.
      I think you and many others are taking this video waaaaay too seriously, anyway. It is a message about giving to others -- not a PSA on how to raise your kids. Relax.

    • @Don123q
      @Don123q Před 10 lety +16

      Noel Zee He did neglect his son. at about 0:50, his son thought that card was written for him and was so happy, and then his father said, "that's not for you". Couldn't the father have written one of his own son? This has nothing to do with money. And what good is it to keep your good intentions a secret until your death? That his son had mistaken him was inevitable and his own doing.

Her siblings have turned away from her when she came in direct contact to her sister when she had Covid. That same sister turned the others against her. She's just plain upfront about things.

      By neglected I mean the father never motivate his own son, but keep motivating others. He is there but he is just there.
      In my opinion, it's precisely because the father never explained/communicated his behavior that the son thinks his father is poor and not cool.

      Koru Lee sometimes u learn better when realising it on your own, rather than being taught or told by someone else. in this case, he learnt what an inspiration his dad is only after he was gone. i believe this has much more impact than if he were to be told by his father. imagine if he is constantly being "taught or told" by his father how he should behave, he wouldn't have the desire to be rich, he wouldn't have the desire to be successful. he may seemingly have neglected his own child, but his actions spoke much louder than any words could carry. and because of that, when his son realised it, he decided to carry on his dad's legacy with the clown. if his dad wasn't an inspiration or if he did not truly understand what his father has been teaching him, he wouldn't have the courage to be a clown just like what his dad was.
      neglect? irony? i think u need to look deeper, and understand just how profound the love for his son is.

    Great message, but it’s sort of making the audience an emotional hostage. Why did the father tell the son, “That’s not for you” when he saw the card saying he’ll be a great man one day? The way he said that would make any child feel bad. That was deceptive. It would’ve been better had the father actively included the son in the “giving life” he was leading. Yeah, the son had a negative attitude, but where is the footage of the father actively teaching the son those values? What gave him the negative attitude? How did the son go through his entire childhood with such a great man...and see no evidence that he was great? Something about the way this story was told leaves questions.

He always yelled at me for not focusing in studies for not being good in studies, always compared with other students, basically he was a verbally abusive person & sometimes physically everytime he use to say you are good for nothing, you can't achieve anything in life, you will nothing in life. In my case were in a good condition but still we struggled bcuz my have father have two jobless brother & their family to look up, sometimes they used to get the nicest things & we would shop from small shops lived a lower middle class life, I didn't buy gadgets, computer or any costly things that kids use to buy in childhood. don't have any complain bcuz somehow I was still lucky that I was getting the basic needs, care which some kids like orphans don't get some even get the worst childhood like stepkids & slum area kids.

    Well I am from India and we celebrate a festival here called 'Diwali' which is like the Americans' Christmas when it comes to decorations and buying sweets and the like. Everybody tries their hardest to make their home look good, wear high end clothes and stuff. The rich celebrate it quite good, even the middle class people celebrate it fine but poor and homeless people aren't fortunate enough to celebrate it in a good way. I got my first pay at a new job after being unemployed for 3 months and my father asked me to give him 2000 rupees for a new pair of clothes and I was fine with it. When I told him that I will go along with him he refused multiple times then I asked him why he was refusing so much? He told the truth that he needed money to buy sweet for an institution which takes care of handicapped children. He wore his old clothes and chose to buy sweets for the children instead. I not only felt proud about my father but also myself for not thinking about spending the money for children. I did not tell this to many people in real life because it didn't feel right to expect people to praise you by telling them yourself. I am saying this here because my dad is a big inspiration for me. The joy of giving is surely something which is out of this world.

    Help other people but neglect your own son, isnt that another form of selfish ? Not that saying helping people is wrong but help until your own son hate u,abandon u and look down at u is just pathetic . Yes at the end his son know what his father did but dont u think is too late?You dead and left ur son in regret , what is the point?

      The point is that a lifelong lesson is learnt and a man has been changed for the better. *That* matters. The world is not merely made up of mash-mellows, strawberries and Disney cartoons with their "happily ever afters".

    • @fRe3eezY

      U alos miss the point that his father tried to give his son money. He never neglected him. His son grew up to be successfull in this movie. So his farther done his dutie. You are exaggerate with your comment and you missed the point. As explained his dad was a selfless man, and would had the son returen home for example, i am sure his dad would have told him. But being selfless he lived his live not to make him self look better, he did it all without wanting anything in return. And again, he clearly looked after his son, also offering him the money for university, which his son didnt take. You must also consider that the view of his son, shows something about his caracter! not asking his dad about what he does etc.

      Alexander Grosse No no no my friend u miss out my point.Remember the part when the boy saw his father writing the card "u will be great man" ?Instead of give the card to his son and write a new one,he take back the card and say "is not for you",that could be the most hurting act a father can do to his son and believe it or not a small thing like this can be the last nail in the coffin .
      We cant treat every children like adult , most of them dont even know what is good and bad ,they will only care what will benefit them the most .Yes, the father did give the son money but in education part,he fail.You see just giving all fancy word about "more you give out ,you will more happier " are not helping at all, is like you throw all ingredient to a boy without teaching him how to cook,you need action to back up your teaching,strengthen it and sharping a positive thinking for your children .You mention his father try to give him money when he going Uni, but he did not accept ,why?Cause he dont want anymore relate with his father ,why? Because he think that his father are poor and unsuccessful,why?Because the father give out the massage "helping other make u poor and unsuccessful" .
      Lastly about the son character ,in Chinese we got this phrase "养不教,父之过" ,if u translate it basically meant "To feed without teaching, is the father's fault".You might say the father did try to make him a better man,but sometime a wrong example of teaching are worst then did not teach at all.

    After watching this video, I learned a dad is a very important person in your life for if it was not for him you couldn’t be where you are now. Learn to appreciate your fathers for whatever good they do and do not forget them after being the successful person you have always wanted to be in life.

    I am a Daddy's Girl, I admit he made me cry but he made me laugh more, I admit he was always lecturing me about things but he teaches me more about how to be the best person I could be, I admit that he was a bad boy before but he became a good father, he forgot all his bad habits just so he can fulfill his duty and responsibility of becoming a good Father. And I'm proud to say that I don't like my father but I loved him so much and I always will. And I'm afraid that he's getting older and weaker. I won't waste a second laughing with him. But I will never forget saying I love you to my father every morning, noon, afternoon, night even dawn I guess. And I would always give him haircuts so he wouldn't waste a small amont of money for cutting a small amount of hair. I would do everything for my dad. Because he is my hero, my boyfriend and my life. So I thank God for giving me such an amazing person. I love you Dad💛
