"I went to visit my father to tell him that I was going to go to college and become an architect - that was my dream. I was like, yeah I graduated from school, but it's not like you showed up for that. But all he was worried about is whether or not I wanted money from him"

About this Quote
This quote speaks with the detach between Jake and his father. Jake is proud of his accomplishment of graduating from school and wants to share his dream of ending up being an architect with his father. Nevertheless, his father is more worried with whether or not Jake desires cash from him. This recommends that Jake's dad is not interested in Jake's dreams and ambitions, but rather in what he can do for Jake. This disconnect in between Jake and his father is likely due to a lack of interaction and understanding in between them. Jake's daddy may not comprehend the importance of Jake's dreams and ambitions, or he may not have the ability to supply the psychological assistance Jake needs. Whatever the reason, it is clear that Jake and his dad have a strained relationship.
