When one of my kids, the dancer, when he was about 14, he wanted to fly planes and he wanted money to fly planes.
And he sat down with us and he said, you know, all the kids in my school, their parents pay for these kinds of things.
It's like, you know, taking flying lessons.
It's extracurricular activities.
Parents pay for this stuff.
And I looked at him.
I said, if you want to fly planes, you can go fly planes.

I was hard and he got a job.
Actually, he now teaches dance, which is why he's at the Raptors today doing it.
