I’ve always loved this moment in Jaws.

It adds so much authenticity. Thanks for watching!

You’re so right. It’s the intimate moments our children long for and as parents our actions are their guides. I heard this quote when I was pregnant with my daughter 5+ years ago that has stuck with me over the years as a good reminder to be better than what I preach.
“Not everyone has role models, but everyone has examples.”

Great quote. Absolutely. And thank you so much for leaving a comment, it's great to hear.

Deep-Well Said-Great choice of movie scene to engage with us in a dialogue about important moments in parenting and hopefully alerting us to do a little better in the future. An example of how the visual media can be more effective "than a thousand words." Hats off to you "Dad after Dark"!

[@DaddyDaughterMovieNight]

Kind words. Thank you very much for watching!
