Parents...shouldn't leave their kids....

Song: Superman
Artist: (Cover By: Boyce Avenue) Original Artist: five for Fighting
Program Used: Sony Vegas Movie Studios 9

Please...No critique this time. This is a really personal vent for me, I've had it done for a month or so but kept from uploading because I've never really uploaded vids this personal. Mostly, I vent about things my friends are going through or just plain emotion. This one is really specific. I hope you guys don't mind.

The song is the cover of Superman by Five for Fighting sung by Boyce Avenue. The quote is from the Harry Potter audio book when Harry yells at Lupin for considering leaving Tonks. I kept playing that scene over and over again...just listening.

The only confusing parts will probably be: Nala is not Kiara's mother, she is Simba's girlfriend while Sarabi is the actual mother. In the scene with Kovu and Simba they are not related, Kovu is on the outside looking in.

(Reason for Vent) I've never had a problem that my dad isn't a big part of my life. It's never bothered me, really. He has more of a fun uncle role than a fatherly role, and it works for our relationship so whatever. But I hung out with my friend for her 18th birthday and watched her talk to her dad when he picked us up and...he's so involved with her life...it just really got to me. For days I couldn't place why it bothered me until I made this vid. My mom was in the living room with me and I ended up bawling on her shoulder-- it freaked her out because I NEVER cry. I don't understand why it's so hard for him to be an involved father. It's really not that hard, but it's naive of me to expect any more of him. But...even heroes deserve the right to dream...

Thank you for watching and reading.

This is such a pretty video and such a great song <3 ^-^ And i'm sorry hon, that must be really hard. I know how much it tears you up. I have no dad and the stepdad who was with me since I was 1 ditched me and stole my brothers away from me when I was 13 and didn't even let me call or see them because of my mom and sister. Then my Mom ditched us all and moved states away. Not that it matters, she isn't and never was a mom so it makes no difference to me. My family doesn't much care about me :)

@CircleofLifex D: Oh, wow, dude! My whimpering looks like a little kid crying over spilled milk compared to that! I really hope something goes right and works out for you, to not have both parents...Without my mom I have no idea what I'd do. Good luck my my friend!

[stingerscorpi]

Wonderful job, what program did you use?

[bladethorn]

@stingerscorpi I use Sony Vegas Movie Studios 9 :) Thank you.

This is absolutely beautiful. And I know exactly how you feel. My dad was killed in the Mafia when I was 6 years old and I know how hard it is to see others enjoy their lives with a fatherly figure. Just keep your head high, and know it'll all be alright.

[bladethorn]

@DarkWolf267 Losing your father literally has to be worse than losing your father emotionally...I hope you're doing alright, and thank you :)

Hnng. My Dad used to hate my guts and then I had this complete emotional breakdown and he's trying to be a better parent now...but I have no idea how to like...have a Dad, if that makes sense? It's so jarring for him to try to be a part of my life now. Anyway, I can relate a lot to this and I know a lot of people share that sentiment. Thanks for posting it.

This reminds me of my dad...He literally signed himself out of my life when I was eleven.... Many sleepless nights.

@bladethorn You want to kick him in the face? I´ll give a frickin map to his house! xD

You don´t even want to know what I´d like to do to my so called father >.<

Aww, that´s so nice of you! T^T *sniff*

Thank you; have a beautyful Christmas too, buddy! =)

I feel your pain man, same thing happened to me when I saw my friend with her mom

[NinjanateKitty]

this is all happened when i was like 4 and i didnt understand now 10 almost 11 yrs have gone by and i understand all of it and ive grow up not having him i have no respect for him at all becuz i no what a dad is supposed to be becuz of my dad and now my father is trying to enter my life again and he is just causeing so much drama that i dont need becuz i just started high school and its pretty stressful and he expects me to want him in my life just cuz im his daughter

[NinjanateKitty]

aww i'm so sorry to hear about this my father is like this to but luck enough i have my dad (who is really my step-dad but i call him my dad becuz he is more of a dad then my father ever will be to me) my father cheated on my mom when i was very young then ended up getting a devorce and me and my mom moved out we went through a lot and didnt have a lot of money and my father never cared to come see me or anything and one day he even said he did have to see me if he didnt want to. . .

Im 14 and see nothing wrong with teddy bears ^^

[CircleofLifex]

[bladethorn]

@WoelfinStrikesBack93 ?! Excuse me if this offends you...but can I kick your father in the face? How dare he insult my friend ESPECIALLY in front of your brother?! That frustrates me soooo much DX Well, I love you and hope you have a wonderful Christmas; don't let your father's negativity ruin anything for you, my friend!
