Changed lines 42 from:

* Jiraya eventually becomes this to Naruto. The similarity of their relationship to that of a father and son is even recognized at one point by Naruto (Jiraya, meanwhile, points out that he is NOT a kid anymore and tells him to get back to training). Iruka, being actually responsible for most of the pre-ninja training of the kids, bounces between TeamDad and TeamMom.
