Almost. Almost. Friday.

Success vs. Happiness is a pretty common thing to struggle with during adolescence. It naturally follows that parents want their children to succeed, a major problem being that some parents have high standards that their child isn't reaching. That sorta' thing; in my case, my reaction is over-the-top and aggressive.

I call it an archetype because you see the idea perpetuated throughout generations, but I suppose the term blurs the lines between reality and fiction a little too much. :P
