I met his father (Kurt’s grandpa) in 2007 at his home. I went to the shop that Kurt bought his first guitar. The guy working there said he gets a lot of people coming to see the store(it’s not the original location but same store) we talked to him for awhile and he pulled out a phone book and showed us Leland Cobains phone number. They said he is a friendly guy and will talk to his grandsons fans. I called him and asked if wanted to meet somewhere for lunch. He told us to stop by his house. We probably talked for 2 hours. Extremely nice man and something I’ll never forget.

God is good. Repent and believe the gospel. Jesus Christ died for your sins and rose from the dead. You can be forgiven. You must be born again. There was a woman who had an alabaster box of very precious ointment and she poured it on the head of Jesus. We need to honour the King. The Lord God. ”that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.“ John 3:15 KJV. The Lord Jesus Christ. Repent means change, change from sin. Turn away from sin. Love and fear God. Call on the name of Jesus Christ. Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you. He saved me. There is the lake of fire which is burning for eternity and there is heaven. I have eternal life in heaven because of what the Lord has done. Be ready for the day of judgement.

Watch the interview of the ex teacher of Kurt's. When Kurt got kicked out by his parents, Kurt lived on the teacher's couch for a year. He said what a good kid he was, did all the chores, polite, packed up his sleeping bag each day. The teacher said in that year he never heard once from either Kurt's mother or father.

Not sure why everyone is accusing him of "not knowing Kurt". You can tell by the look in his eyes, and the emotion and his voice that he realizes who Kurt was, and why his life played out the way it did. And he also is man enough to acknowledge & accept the somewhat negative roll he played in Kurt's life. You look at Kurt's mother's interview and she is a blank slate. No emotion, no feeling. Just yammering on about how they were "best friends" when Kurt himself even said that was not the case. Don Cobain seems like a truly sincere guy..

Don said he wanted to see Frances, and Kurt proudly recited all the latest things she could say and do. As for their own strained relationship, they avoided reviewing their disappointments in each other, but Don was able to utter the words that many times earlier had eluded him. “I love you Kurt,” he told his son. “I love you too, Dad,” Kurt replied. At the end of the conversation, Kurt invited his father to come see his new house when he returned from tour.

His dad was not perfect but it’s clear he loved his son and still feels the loss.

Don just doesn't seem to have it in him. He comes across as fairly average, almost monotone. Cant see him going into any kind of rage episodes or anything else emotional. Just goes with the flow.

What a Beautiful Magical voice, takes me to heaven ✨ thank you for passing th genes 🌺✨ #GrungeIsCobain #MissYouKurt

Montage Of Heck really made Don look like a horrible dad and made wendy always seem sunshine and rainbows. For example, Wendy when talking about Aberdeen in the movie said 'My kids loved that town.' It takes a singular braincell to know Kurt didn't like Aberdeen. Wendy got profit from Kurt and practically never felt guilty about anything with Kurt. Hell when Kurt got his first paycheck for Nevermind Wendy made Kurt pay her 10k. While you have Don who still to this day every day feels constant guilt about the things that happened with kurt and genuinely feels bad. Don also practically gets zero profit from Kurt, much unlike Wendy

Disappointing. Brett Morgen had this unique chance to let us listen to people who knew Kurt Cobain. Instead he seems really unskilled at bringing out pertinent details from those who knew Kurt. Really too bad because all these people have personal experiences with this fascinating person we'd all like to know better. They seem awkward rather than relaxed and flowing from an experienced interviewer, like Off Camera with Sam Jones who actually relates to the people and lets them talk freely, thus revealing interesting tidbits. Instead we learn next to nothing new we didn't know before the interview. :>\

They are so similar with Kurt. Eyes, nose, lips, the way how he talk

i think alot of the stuff , ie the way Don kobain treated his wife , no gifts, no I love you, no compliments really caused a deep hurt that wounded and the domino effect echoed into Kurt, it was this that caused a huge void in Kurt's psyche, hence the divorce was the last straw. kids learn from their parents, they also obtain coping mechanisms from them as well.

His voice almost sounds like Kurt

After seeing interviews from both of his parents, I just find it odd how much more shit Kurt spoke of his father than his mother. His father seems like a pretty humble guy. But his mother seems like a very caustic person. She even kicked Kurt out after he'd dropped out of high school, then she had the audacity to hop on his money train with Courtney. Meanwhile Kurt kept saying "fuck my dad" in certain interviews. Seems irrational and childish. Maybe things would have changed had he lived.

When you choose to have kids, you have to accept all the potential scenarios. You may divorce their mother/father and have to battle for custody. You may not be the parent you thought you would be. You may not be able to handle your child's idiosyncrasies or mental illness. You may not be able to relate to your child as deeply as you hoped. You may not be a happy family. If you are willing to take that gamble, consider it based on the potential losses, just as you would if you were gambling on a horse or football game with your life savings (though at least with sports, the odds are quantifiable). Yes, Kurt became someone his father could be proud of. But he suffered. And his father suffered in his own way. This is not a game you want to play simply because it's "the thing to do".

RoboTube is right, and drugs amplified all Kurt's darkness and inner feelings that made him feel like shit. If Kurt never got into heroin since 1990 ( the real year he tried it acording to people close to him) probably never killed himself. We never know. Wev'e got the music and that's all that matters.

I like Kurt’s Gramps Leland the best! He welcomed Kurt to stay with him any time he wanted! Kurt’s Dad and Mom I’m not impressed with. They appear to have given up on him and kicked him out of the House. Maybe he was difficult but he was also angry about the divorce. That hurt him and he acted out because of it. He went from a happy kid to an angry kid almost overnight. I know from my own parents divorce how much emotional pain it caused me. I no longer cared about school and let my grades drop. I almost didn’t finish high school because of their divorce. It really messed me up emotionally. So I can relate to the pain of divorce in a family. He ended up a runaway.

Dude it's just a divorce grow some balls.

Don is a good guy. People give him a bad rap because Kurt said some shit. I think Kurt was confused. Don just wanted what was best for Kurt. Wendy wanted what was best for her. Accepted child support from Don while Kurt was living at friends. Different men in and out. And she bad mouths don. I know as a child from divorce, One of the hardest things a child has to endure in a divorce situation is listening to one parent badmouth the other

+HDaviator i doubt a loving parent would forget the way their deceased child acted. These people are literally at a loss of words and the interview had just started. It was a simple question of how their son was as a person, and they could not even answer that. Saying that "people change" is like giving them an excuse for not knowing him at all

Most people look into Kurt Cobain's life way more than they should. He had the same problems we all have. He was a normal dude just like the rest of us. The only reason why people make him out to seem more interesting or "tortured" than he really was was because of the fact that he was in a band that sold millions of records and that's not something the average Joe just does. Other than that, the stupid "They never really knew Kurt" thing is blown out of proportion. Most parents never really do get to know their children through and through anyway, and with how fast Nirvana blew up, Kurt's parents wouldn't have been able to keep track of him with the amount of traveling he was doing. Stop romanticizing the guy's life as something out of a Lifetime movie. We all went through some of the same shit he did in his childhood, teens and adulthood. Most of us just aren't famous to be able to talk about it.

I get that vibe from his dad more than the mom. "There was no love in my family" His dad admits that he was brought up by a cold, stern father and was basically like that with Kurt. Those are the kind of fathers who leave all the bonding and "mushy stuff" to the mothers and would rather sit back and I dunno, do manly stuff. My dad was kind of like that with me. He would never want to go out to the movies with my sister and mom or go on outings as a family unless we were eating at a restaurant or something. He was always working or if he wasn't doing that, he'd just stay at home. Only time we bonded was over the tv, watching cartoons. Although, I wasn't born a boy (I'm trans btw). So maybe me being a girl had something to with the distance. I know that fathers sometimes find it harder to bond with daughters than with sons. Idk.

I can hear Kurt’s voice in his, soft and gentle too.

“You Know” seems like a staple with The Cobain’s

Kurt tried hard to have a father but instead he had a dad.

It's so odd to see the familial resemblance in the face and mannerisms

the real sad thing about this interview is Kurt and his Father never got to bury the hatchet and start over again as father and son . And there is no doubt in my mind Donald and Kurt would of been close in each others lives later on . so sad to see it never happen .

I think that it is coming from a father and a man who felt that his son was gonna do big things, he must of known that Kurt was very smart and talented even at a young age which he was. it is just a father that believes his child can do wonderful things, which most parents feel that way. and hope their child can do great things. he is not saying he knows what is gonna occur he just knew his son was vert talented.

There he is... "Mr. Moustache" (an older and more humble version of him I guess).

Wendy injected into Kurt hate for his father, now Courtney does the same thing with Francis.

Even the way Don and Kurt talk is the same

I have a conclusion after researchs. Kurt repressed his anger against his mother unlike to his father. Why. ? Because she and her family were more expressive emotional and supported him in Arts. Courtney is like his mother...when she gave him an ultimátum his biggest trauma came in to play. It was letal.

The thing is Don give everything that he had and Wendy was the one who left him. Don doesn’t possess capacity for some things but Wendy was selfish and ruthless when she left him.

He seems in regret for his faults as a father, Wendy looks like an ego self centered person. Kurt had a hard time with his boyfriends after the divorce.

Im glad they didnt end on a bad note and had some good conversations in the end of Kurt's life..

RIGHT ? i thought I was the only one who noticed their hypocrisy.

Don said that his side of the family wasn't loving. That explains quite a bit regarding the initial distance between him and Kurt. These dysfunctional cycles repeat themselves... but he should have tried harder. Kurt was his first born.

Chad looks so much like his Dad now.

Try to remember this is someone’s father. And no matter how bad one might have it with one’s parents, there will always be mixed feelings. And you will always go back and forth, sometimes even second guessing yourself, constantly over analysing everything. I know because I had a similar father. But unlike Kurt Cobain, I lived past age twenty-seven and my dad and I finally reconciled and we made our peace with each other. The only person who has the right to judge his father is God and Kurt, and that’s it. None of us have that right. I am sure that this man probably regretted a lot. His story is not unlike millions of others.

I had to watch this video of Don to understand a bit more of Kurt. Things start to make sense. In the end, we´re all victims, and survivors.

the way everyone defends his shitty parents make me sick, damn. like, if Kurt couldn't stand his own father it was for a certain reason, he knew his father more than everyone. and he was right, Donald was evil and still is.

people say divorce can be bad on children and things but think if Kurts parents stayed together we might would never have nirvana. Kurt would probably still be alive but the world would have never felt nirvana.

Guarantee you had Don and Wendy not gotten divorced Kurt would still be alive today. The divorce devastated him and caused all sorts of problems, from depression which led to seeking comfort in drugs, which was his downfall. Had he been in a stable, loving family growing up, he likely would have never ever touched heroin or chosen a person like Courtney Love to be with. He would have made better decisions.

Def can see kurts smile in don..or visa versa

God, it’s so infuriating that people say that Kurt dad is "not so bad", "not bad", or even "good".Annoys🙄 .What would these people say if he beat, insulted and kicked them out of the house? I wish all those who are on the side of Kurt’s parents, those who say that they need to be forgiven, to live with such abusive people for 18 years.🤬🤬🤬😤

Sweet bloke

I feel bad for Don. Like he said he was raised in a family with no love. You carry that with you. But I see a sensitive, softspoken man behind that. Much like Kurt. What a shame that they couldn't have figured out how to have a better relatiobship when Kurt was alive. Thats how it goes though.

I'm tired of disliking you🙄Stop making excuses for the abuser

Yeah you know

I am sad to say that it is simply ideas which are behind families being destroyed! I'm ecstatic to say that simply better ideas can save families and help them be happy! Ideas about what men should be like or what marriages should be like, help to shape people unless they get exposed to other models which are healthier. Obviously women have these same problems with role models. Don seemed to have had issues with expressing love, and his wife Wendy in another video said "Don never said encouraging words" that she was beautiful or that he loved her, etc. So she may have thought she was not loved and she divorced him. However he seemed like the nicest gentleman, who may just have been given a false idea about manhood from his father, and that father probably got the same thing from his father. But think how society as a whole sometimes seems to discourage men from being nice. First they are instructed "nice guys finish last". Great lesson there. Then they are encouraged to get all the sex they can... That another great sign of manhood..... so impressive. They are not encouraged to wait for the right person, as if a happy and faithful marriage was WORTH waiting for, [as women, up until lately, were encouraged to wait for the right man. She's now encouraged to grab all she can also, and if her birth control pills or uterine device fail her, she can simply cut out the offending baby, which causes many women immense grief]. Religions across the world have said that women are less valuable than men and have many ways of setting that idea out there. "Man came from God, and women came from man". Thanks religions for helping keep women in their lower places. Men in other countries have gone so far as to have the women's pleasure organ removed, her clitoris, so she never gets to experience orgasm. Jewish people for the longest time have helped to share their fabulous idea of cutting off a guys foreskin, which gives the women those cool NATURAL ridges that are added ARTIFICIALLY to condoms. Sometimes I think that the powers that be from ages ago, have been quite terrified of happy loving marriages and have conspired to take the pleasure out of marriage for women and for men. As we know families are the building blocks of strong societies... and if people are miserable and their kids are, well how much easier it is to sell them artificial fun, pornography, drugs, "being cool" , being rich, being "powerful", (ugh)and all the rest of things people do to find something so simple and that is acceptance and love. Why is Love a 4 letter word for too many people??? And how can Love be promoted as the best of joys in our world and what the world needs most of? Even God has become a "bad hombre" who actually would allow eternal torture of his children as if God could condone such an horrible idea. I think people create the hell right here on Earth.With better ideas, we could make Heaven on Earth just as Jesus said we could when he suggested his followers pray........"....Thy kingdom come on Earth, as it is in Heaven".

In Kurt's interview, after his dad married his step mom, he felt like he was the least importance on his father's list. But according to this interview, his second wife made him happy. Maybe Kurt was jealous because when Donald was with Wendy, he was stiff and strict. No normal child wants to see his father looks happier with another woman than his mother. Kurt also became more jealous when Chad was born.

Donald Cobain's description of his father seems to have little similarity to the personality that Leland Cobain shows in the you tube videos interviews he sat for. There is definitely some weird issues in this family and getting beat with a belt doesn't even count compared to the other issues I am perceiving. I detect lack of truthfulness from each of them, expecially Mrs Cobain, and just plain dysfunctionality. Donald Cobain's description of his father doesn't match up with ANYTHING I have seen of Leland Cobain on youtube interviews of him.
