Ron Thompson

Ron Thompson is one of the protagonists of Disney's 1989 film Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.
==Personality==
Ron is rude, arrogant, worrisome, and selfish and can be blunt at times. He enjoys fishing and baseball. He is also a bully to Nick, but during their adventure, he warms toward him and finally becomes his friend. He is tough, but when Antie, the ant he befriended, died after being attacked by a scorpion, he broke down and cried. He's also known to be smarter than he gives himself credit for and has very creative ideas: such as being able to construct a booby trap in his backyard, using a crossbow, that fires a suction cup arrow, marked with superglue, rigged to Russ' fishing rod, to catch intruders. As well as improving on Amy's earlier idea, which involved using a piece of cookie to lure Antie, by rigging it to a stick, which is then placed in front of the Ant, to make it follow it, while attaching a blade of grass to it, so it can tow Amy, Nick and Russ Jr..
