Also, I don't have anything against the show being actionfied, I know darn well it's all about that, but some of the family moments they have had i found to be a bit sour, and more so than they had to be.

By the way your saying pysical assult, youre sounding like he just goes around kicking the **** out of them on a daily basis(that's just during training). It's just a slap over the head, you mean to tell me you never did that whenever someone said or did something stupid. I do it to my cousins, doesn't mean I'm mean or abusive, I'm just setting them straight. Thats what Splinter does. I'm sorry if he's not Danny Tanner enough for you.

As for that thing with the Shredder, I already said, the only reason he had them go back and fight the Shredder, is because the turtles already started the fight. So they had to go back and finish it, otherwise The Foot would have hunted them down(which they eventually did, but thats another story).
