If only those were the only ways he forced everyone in his family to agree to support his personal preferences
For the lessons you’re maybe thinking of, I’d give credit to my mom. She wouldn’t let us have things like chef boyardee (had to look up the spelling. lol) because she’d say it wasn’t as real but then would instead make legit pasta with store-bought ingredients. Whereas my dad would just prefer Burger King instead of McDonald’s for some reason. Dude just hated things that were popular and happened to be right a couple of times. Bonus points if kids really wanted something he didn’t care for - then he happily rubbed our faces in how we were dumb for wanting what everyone else wanted.
All said, they were immigrants so advertising def had to hit different for them
lol. That’s an overly-generous way to look at it.
