Hi. I heard this idea in conection with ben sorer umoreh also,  not from R.Aharon zt'l but from some other rabbanim, but I forgot who they quoted  it from, so I didn't mention it. However I got an e-mail from my friend R. Bezalel Naor ( see orot.com) who quoted a somewhat similar idea from the Maharal in his chidushei agados to Sotah, in regard to ben soerer umoreh ( if I can find the e-mail I will beli neder forward it to you. I wanted to mention James dean though because the scene in that movie was a really good illustration of parents pulling a child in opposite directions. He then told them, "You're tearing me apart!" Glad you are enjoying netvort. Kol tov and have a good Shabbos, Josh
