Current Episode Discussion VII

[di marco]

Phil is warped, he thinks treating his son the way he was treated by his father, pushing stuff on him that Ben doesn't want. Ben is not like him, never was.. Phil has got to realise that he is also a Beale

i dont agree with phil trying to force ben into doing what he wants and i think he should accept that ben wants to do dancing rather than playing sport etc. however i can understand why phil got angry last night, imo ben was behaving like a brat, not coming to eat his dinner then refusing to eat it

yes I agree with that but I don't think the punishment fits the crime..

no, i think phil did go over the top the way he dragged ben at the end. i think it was understandable him shouting at him but i dont think he should seriously hurt ben. although i also think ben needs to grow up a bit and stop being so immature, refusing to eat your dinner is quite a childish thing to do
