There’s something completely unnerving about seeing your parents upset. I suppose it’s because they’re supposed to be the strong ones, but that’s not just it. Ever since people are kids they use their parents as some sort of measurement for how bad a situation is.

If they laugh and smack the ground saying “Bold ground,” then you pick yourself up and get on with it.
