Then he slams his head on the table and adds, "Ugh, when will that guy ever start to loosen up?!"

Luis told his son, "Come on Theo, why won't you start thinking on the positive side of school like your sister Kenzie?"

Theo rolls his eyes as he sarcastically responds, "Oh, that's because she believed that there's always something good in everything."
