It portrays a family with an older teenage son who comes and goes from the house as he pleases. The mother proposes letting him be and treating him as an adult, which does not work. The father grounds him, which humiliates him and causes him to stop speaking to his family. The message of the film is that there is a need for a middle ground between extremes, that take the teenagers' feelings into account. 0:08 McGraw-Hill Texas Films, Adolescent Development Series “Discipline During Adolescence”, 0:34 moving text about discipline, 1:02 a family leaving Sunday service and entering their car, 1:30 family speaking with another family, 2:00 family returns home and they speak with each other, 2:32 father and mother talk to each other, 4:58 the family’s older son comes downstairs and begins reading the paper and speaking to his dad, 6:04 the oldest son sitting at a diner with his friends and they talk to each other, 8:33 montage of the oldest son taking a girl on a date, 8:58 son arrives home late after the date, 9:16 family is having breakfast and the husband and wife have a conversation, 11:01 oldest son comes downstairs clearly tired and sits down at the table, 11:31 dad and his son have a stern conversation that evolves to an argument, 13:10 two girls hanging up a poster, 13:47 oldest son speaks to the girl he took on a date, 14:06 father reading a newspaper and him and his wife start talking, 15:28 the oldest son looking at job advertisements in the newspaper in his room, while the narrator questions the audience about whether the parents' response was appropriate. 16:08 Produced by Crawley Films Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed.
