I read that a lot of people don’t like Penny for her personality, but I really like her for all of the same reasons. She’s hypercritical and hypocritical, selfish and protective, romantic but cynical—she judges others for their faults and isn’t very aware of her own. But that makes her very human to me.

i would've loved to see more character development tbh, BUT i did love the discussion of mental health, socioeconomic disparity, vulnerability, and the focus on the bond or lack thereof between parent and child that

doesn't result in immediate change or forgiveness
