In this situation, there is a dedicated and nostalgic father who wants to provide his son with an upbringing that mirrors the idealized childhood he envisions. One of the key elements of this envisioned idealized youth is a love for video games. The father is determined to introduce his son to the world of video games, believing it to be a significant part of his own cherished memories.
However, as the father starts implementing his plan to introduce video games to his son, things don’t go as smoothly as he had hoped. Instead of the expected enthusiasm, his efforts lead to a backlash from his son. The son may not share the same enthusiasm or interest in video games as the father does, and this creates tension or conflict between them.
This situation forces the father to confront the stark reality that his son has different interests and preferences, and their generational gap has resulted in distinct worldviews. The father’s aspirations and expectations, rooted in his nostalgia, are shattered as he realizes that his son’s experiences and values are not identical to his own.
