Damian: what is “tough love”
Tim: it’s when you love someone in a tough situation. Like, when you’re six years old you love your parents but they leave you alone while they’re in a different country for months at a time
Duke: no that’s neglect
Steph: it’s when you do something bad so they punish you by, like, locking you up in a closet all day
Cass [nodding]: or shoot them
Duke: that’s also a type of abuse
Dick: oh! is it insulting someone when they do the right thing? Like “you went to bed at a decent hour? Good job you filthy little slut”
Duke: i think that’s just kinky
Steph: hey, Jason! What’s ‘tough love’ mean?
Jason: what? Uhh, isn’t it when you tell your kids they shouldn’t sell hard drugs?
Duke: that’s just good advice in general. Surprisingly given your answers jason is the one i trust most with raising a child
