Quote from Frankie in Friends, Lies and Videotape

Frankie: I'm telling you, Mike, I don't know why we ever quit skipping. It was like our main mode of transportation in the third grade, and then for some reason, we all just stopped. And you know why? 'Cause society says that adults shouldn't skip. Crazy, right?
Mike: I don't know. I'm kinda with society on this one.
Frankie: You have to try it. It's amazing. I mean, sure, you look like an idiot when you're doing it, but you don't care because you're skipping. And it really clears your head. I was thinking about Brick when I was skipping, and I had this epiphany. We know our son better than anybody, so why should we let someone who spends an hour a week with him tell us what he needs or doesn't need?
Mike: Yeah. He's been going there a year, and all he's got is "I like kites"? Same me the $10 co-pay. He can like kites for free.
Frankie: Right? Our son is happy. He's content. That's why he doesn't try to make friends, 'cause he doesn't want them. So I'm not gonna make myself nuts about all of this. When Brick tells me he wants a friend, then I'll know there's a real issue.
Brick: [enters] Mom, Dad, I think I might want a friend. You know what I like. Let me know when you find him.
Frankie: And back to me. Ugh! I'm going out for a skip.
