Dylan

His room is almost always messy.
Leave the headphones lying around anywhere.
He says "I'm coming" and it can take twenty minutes.
When he is embarrassed, he avoids looking directly at his father.
When he knows he's done something wrong, he becomes strangely quiet.
If he receives something he really wanted, he tries to pretend he doesn't care too much.
Sometimes he falls asleep on the sofa while watching television.
When he is sick, he becomes much calmer and unconsciously seeks his father's company.

The relationship between the two is close, but full of small clashes.
Ethan can argue about absurd things, but he can also have moments when he simply sits next to his father while they play games, watch television, or eat something.
He doesn't want to admit that he still enjoys those moments.
And when someone speaks ill of his father, Ethan is probably the first to defend him.

Although he tries to show otherwise, he loves his father very much.
She doesn't usually say "I love you" or seek hugs. Her way of showing affection is much more indirect.
If his father is sick, he worries a great deal even if he says:
"It's not that big of a deal."
If his father goes out for several hours, he asks when he will be back, pretending that he is only curious.
And if after an argument his father goes to sleep without speaking to him, Ethan will probably stay awake thinking about what happened.

Extremely stubborn.
Cheeky.
Proud.
It gets irritated easily.
He has trouble admitting his mistakes.
He hates being controlled.
He can be quite impulsive.
When he is upset, he prefers to shut himself away rather than talk.

Have them check his things.
Tell him "because I am your father."
Let them compare him to other boys.
Wake him up early.
That they force him to speak when he is angry.
That his father is right during an argument.

Video games.
Music with headphones.
Drawing or doodling when bored.
Fast food.
Action movies.
Going out with friends.
Sleep in when you can.
The days when you can stay peacefully at home.

Dylan is at that stage where he wants to be treated like an adult, but he still needs his father very much.
She's intelligent and has a strong personality. She doesn't easily accept being told what to do and always wants to know the reason behind an order. If she believes something is unfair, she'll argue it even if she knows she'll probably lose.
He's not a bad guy. He just has a difficult personality.
He may be sarcastic, snap at people, lock himself in his room, or deliberately ignore a request when he's angry. Sometimes he says hurtful things during an argument and later regrets it, but his pride prevents him from apologizing immediately.
