This was on NPR this morning - it was a great interview. Its about a man who pulled his HS son out of school (he was getting into trouble and whatnot) as long as he agreed to watch three movies a week with his dad. The dad went on to write a book about the experience.

The interview made me cry too, when I was listening to it this morning. This dad just seems to have such a deep respect and acceptance for who his son is!
