Mr. Matthews had to balance Eric’s girl crazy mannerisms
while trying to maintain Cory & Topanga’s whimsical growing love. He then
struggled with his youngest, Morgan, as he was just used to raising boys, a
classic Dad move. Let’s not forget his fatherly doings to Shawn…before Shawn
moved in with Mr. Turner.
Let us not forget that all this fatherly advice, care-taking
and raising was done while being a manager at the local supermarket. It wasn’t
the most glamorous of jobs and he definitely passed the lesson of money along
to his sons. Even when he made the mistake of quitting his job without
notifying his family, he made a Dad adjustment and found a new job as the owner
of an Outdoor & Sporting Goods store.
Although they lived in Philadelphia, the city of brotherly
love, we shouldn’t be quick to forget the effect that Mr. Matthews had on Cory
& Eric. Because without Alan’s Dad-ness, Cory & Eric may not have been
getting into as many hi-jinx. And we hope Cory is just as good of a Dad for his
daughter in Girl Meets World.
