A man confronts his grandson's speech therapist and says, "They are doing anything but speak." A boy overhears his grandfather telling his speech therapist that he has seen no improvement and becomes upset. Grandparents give their grandchildren super-soaker water guns and their mother says, "We don't do guns."
