Cool. The power of the mind, eh? Nothing can stand in the way of love. Except sharks, sharp rusty objects and cliffs.

Well I've read it about three times now and i'm still lost. Was Dick comparing himself to himself, or to Rick? It says the story was wrote by Rick and Rick says he sucks as a father compared to Dick, but then he goes and talks about himself in third person by saying

And what has Rick done for his father? Not much-except save his life. Then the story talks about Rick again for about a paragraph and jumps over to Dick .

Can someone tell me who the story is really about?

This video is at the bottom of the Article in the first link, I think it's best to read the article before watching the video to give you some background on it

That's sad.
But honestly, i dont see why they should have even kept him alive.  43 years of living in hell for the kid.  43 years of having to take care of someone who's  your size.

Yea, it's all touchy-feely.  But i bet his life would have been much better if they aborted the infant than have to care for it for its entire life.

It's a double-edged sword.Â
