After reading what kind of trouble those kids of his got themselves into, no wonder Andy couldn't control TO! He raised two punks of his own.
What do you expect from a man who cannot even discipline himself to stay under 350lbs! The lack of discipline is what is ruining our society and making us a weeker nation. Nobody likes to hear that, but there is no way around it.
