Klingon respect bluntness in friendship and I feel Riker was a true friend trying to get Worf to fight for his life. I also understand Worf too, Doctor Toby Russell was the hero of that episode to me, regardless of how antagonistic Beverly Crusher was.

the irony is that everyone is getting on the Federation hypocrisy spoken here ... but Worf really was the one being the hypocrite. Riker was correct .... Worf did not want to ask his young son to hand him that blade, watch as he impaled himself with said blade, remove said blade from his father's dead body, and wipe the blood off with his sleeve. Worf DID NOT want Alexander to go through that, after having JUST seen his mother's broken body on that same ship maybe a year prior. but it WAS his place, by the letter of the tradition.

While I can understand why this issue would be a bit polarizing, I have to say I love Riker here- excellent dialogue, and I think more fitting for the circumstance than Picard's generally more inspirational/aspirational speeches. Showing respect for his culture but making it clear he will not let Worf do this with no resistance. And the subtle (to a degree) insinuation that this is a cowardly act, without saying so directly in a fashion that would cut Worf deeply. And I think its important to bear in mind, that Riker isn't stopping him from doing anything- he doesn't contest his right to end his life, just makes sure he'll pay the price for it and not shield himself from his son's grief, that he'll have to confront that prior to committing suicide.

The events of this episode had a major part in helping Worf become the kind of Klingon he is during DS9, one of many. He honors Klingon tradition, but recognizing his deep unwillingness to be rigid makes him glorious and it’s potentially inspiring. Riker realizes that Worf wanting this is actually him being selfish and hypocritical. If he was really like his people, he wouldn’t even consider Alexander’s youth as a factor, but he does, because Worf is not like other Klingons, in a good way. In the end, he ultimately decides to fight for his life over ending what’s traditionally considered a disgraceful state, so his friends don’t need to be drag into his suffering and his family can grow under his witness as the Son of Mogh and a Klingon. It’s moments like these and his experiences as a Starfleet Officer and a Klingon far from a home where honor is still fickle, with his primary exposure being their legends, that shape Worf into the ultimate Klingon.

And then you remember that TNG also had episodes like The Child, Code of Honor, Justice & Shades of Grey and you come to realize that the first couple of seasons in every Star Trek Series (with the exception of TOS) is subpar at best and outright terrible at worst. For the record I'm NOT defending Discovery or Picard (both have a LOT of issues) I'm just saying that while there were good and even great episodes there was also a lot of crappy ones too. I'm only bringing this up because I've seen a lot of comments going on about how bad the new trek series are and how the older series were so much better forgetting that TNG's first season is one of the worst seasons in ST History and even TOS had it's questionable episodes (I mean has anyone ever seen Turnabout Intruder?)

@@MasterofSpiders I don't think the writers "didn't think of him", I think they didn't care about Kurn because it didn't serve the story and message they were trying to convey. A writer's job isn't to make sure everything remains 100% consistent throughout the series, the writer's job is to create an entertaining story for us to enjoy or maybe create dialogue around. Consistency gets thrown out the window pretty often throughout Star Trek's various shows, TOS being the biggest offender of that. Gene Roddenberry himself often wrote scripts that contradicted scripts he wrote beforehand because the entertainment value of the episode was more important to him than consistency.
