Families TV Show 1
Storyboard Text
- One evening, as Amanda’s parents, Stan and Joyce, are visiting Christopher and Amanda, Genesis returns home from a weekend spent at his biological father’s house.
- You have pink fingernails too!
- It's beautiful!
- Look at the pretty fairy I drew at Dad's house!
- Back in my day, it was unheard of for a male to have painted fingernails!
- No, your father’s right. And don’t even get me started on your weak family structure, which encourages your son's behaviour...
- Dad! We don’t want to put any negative ideas in Genesis’s head. We want to support all forms of self-expression.
- ...in the first place! You know, it’s a shame that traditional family values have just gone out the window!
- Exactly! Your mother and I have been happily married for 47 years, and that is how modern families should be! One father, one mother, and several children - not this other step-parent, step-sibling kind of baloney! When I was a boy...
- Five-year-old Genesis runs into the living room where the adults are visiting, waving a paper around. Genesis shows his mother a brightly coloured picture that he has drawn.
- Genesis runs out of the room.

- But your dad wasn’t home very often, so you barely knew him. We want Genesis to have a good relationship with all his caregivers.
- Stan continues, "My mother’s role was to be a housekeeper, and that was final. Women are gentler, more patient, more loving, and simply best suited to the emotional nurturing of their kids. On the other hand, my father was in the workplace because men are more tough and aggressive. My father was the head of the household by funding the family, making the most important decisions, and disciplining the kids."
- Stan continues, "This was a similar family structure to when my own father was a boy, and when his father was a boy. At that time, the role of motherhood first became sacred and ideal for a woman. Men were still the money earners who supported their families financially. And, Genesis would have played under the supervision of you, Amanda, as his mother, and not Christopher or Brad."
- Chris leaves to put Genesis to bed.
- I raised you and your four siblings with equal love and care, and you still have a relationship with your father, so it is obviously the superior family structure.
