Prodigal (2001)

David Gallagher: Simon Camden

Quotes 

• Annie Camden : [to her kids]  You know what's really unfair? What's really unfair is that your father and I have worked around the clock for 20 years to give our children a good home, to send our children to school, to buy them the clothes that they want to buy, and yet those children, the very same children that we sacrificed ourselves for over and over again think that they should decide who gets what and when they should get it.

  Simon Camden : No...

  Annie Camden : Don't speak. I will give your sister Mary anything I want to give her, anytime I want to give it to her because I love her and I am happy that she is home. Mary needs us. She needs her father. She needs me and she needs you. And I've got some news for all of you: we need her. We need to embrace each other and support each other because that's what families do. And until you're ready to do that, you know what? You can just live out here! You've got a change of clothes, one week's allowance and some school books. You're more or less on your own. Until you're allowed the privilege of telling me that just how much you regret you're total lack of respect for me and my decisions. And then at that time, if I like what you have to say, I just might let you back into the home that your father and I created. Until then, take care of the rebellious one known as Ruthie. You can come in and use the toilets. Nothing else! Not the kitchen, not the laundry, not the shower, not the phone and not the TV. Enjoy.
