Norwegian press: Ingebrigtsen brothers will refuse to race is Gjert is allowed in the stadium

Still believe the three. Parents can have a "favorite" that they are never violent towards and that child can have an extrem

I'm calling BS on your statement. Trying to fit the explanation to the outcome is called double standards lol.

have never got the impression martin was a favourite. in the documentary he appears significantly in very earliest episodes and if anything he paints the picture of a black sheep

When things make someone feel sad and depressed in later stages of life. They look for someone else to blame. When all They need to do is look inside themselves. Was Daddy rough probably, did he yell alot probably. Did Daddy help you to be a good runner probably. You have so much to be thankful for, and now because you cannot handle the frustrations of life, you want to blame Daddy?

He wasn't - he was marginalized - which is why he gravitated to the grandmother for affirmation. If anyone was going to be abused - it would be him for quitting on the now family industry of running. It is why Ingrid wanted to be a great runner, it was the only way that she would get Gjert's attention.

Martin is saying (without saying) - doesn't anyone know how to read between the lines anymore? - that the other brothers are full of sh*t. They have their own agenda, which has nothing to do with fear or violence. They wanted to control the narrative (which they didn't do in the series - who got the money for that?) to their interests (don't blame them). It is obvious from the series that they (the running boys) had little respect for their Dad as a coach. This is why the Nordas thing sticks in Henrik's (the alpha) craw - because it shows that Gjert can coach.

Ok then suppose this is true and the other three brothers have a "twisted" agenda. Who raised them? The Dad did a freaking awful job of three of his own gosh darn children are lying and manipulating a story like this....it's the parent's fault either way.......(I still believe the kids BTW, but if the other scenario is true, still, awful job on the Fathers part, sounds like he really messed up his family)

children are not always a reflection of their parenting.

Not always, sure. But it's usually maybe one out of a bunch, not the majority. Awful job for the Dad.

Letsrun.com, when are you going to change 'is' to 'if' in your thread title? Come on. This is just basic English.

Lol, come on dude what did you just say?? Children are not always a reflection of their parenting? That's like saying the sun doesn't always rise from the east lol!! Do you even know what you are spewing?

A proverb for you to ponder Mr Smartypants:

"For want of a nail the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the man was lost."

"The depths of the ocean starts with a single drop of water."

"A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step."

"A single picture speaks a thousand words."

All these proverbs imply meanings and consequences that tell or show us that no amount of influence of a parent on a child's upbringing IS TOO DAMN SMALL!!!

Jakob seems like an entitled brat. He reminds me of prince harry. Even the Same dynamic with the " influencer" wife

But that Mofo can run fast. And that's all that really matters in the end when he's on the track.

True. Track needs some drama as well. Perhaps He can start an affair with sha'carri as well

The nonsense posted on LRC is quite impressive, actually.

So, you believe that all children in any given family turn out to be essentially the same. Yeah, that's definitely true, in an alternate universe.

Thanks for using name to reply me as I was getting sick and tired of all the wussies hiding behind anonymity to tell me I'm so sick and insane! If I were really truly sick and insane, then at least I deserve a real Kalenjin warrior of an honorable man or woman to tell me so, not some wuss.

But yeah, do you have an issue with my unconquerable statements? If children do not ever reflect their parents even just 1% then the sun does not also reflect itself from east to west duh!

And the other proverbs just off the back of mind explicitly showing that the SMALLEST influence packs big/huge! Hence the most imperceptible (or taken for granted) influence also the same!

I want everyone on LRC to know what reputation I bring to it. An RF and EMF one, period! In RF and EMF theory, nano-sized stuff packs large energy relative to other much larger energetic entities and systems of this earth.

Yeah, she’s absolutely dreadful. Very, very disrespectful and entitled. But, a good match for the brat Jakob it seems.
