Quote from Red in Kitty and Eric's Night Out
Kitty: You know, he used to love going shopping with me. Red: Look, Kitty, he's 16. Kitty: 17. Red: Whatever. The point is that when a boy hits that age, they don't wanna spend time with their mother. And if they do... They're weird. It's not a big deal. Kitty: Well, it is a big deal to me, Red Forman. It is a big deal! [pounds the table] Red: Okay. Kitty: Well, I just... I just wish sometimes, he, he, he would want to spend time with me. Red: Well, force him! It doesn't matter what he wants. As long as we're paying his way... We own him.
