i did find it a good show but here what i did not like about it, John B works a part-time job for Ward Cameron, the Kook king of the Outer Banks. John B's uncle was living with him until he went missing, too, but for the last few months, John B has been fending for himself Who pays the mortgage and bills? Where does John B get his food? One scene shows Kiara begging her father to let her friends eat leftovers from their restaurant, which implies that the boys struggle to get fed. The only thing about John B's situation that makes sense is his limited wardrobe.The only characters who seem to have a mother are Kiara, Topper, Wheezie, and Pope - but their appearances are all very brief. Topper's mother appears only once, while Kiara's and Pope's only a handful of times, and they don't have many lines when they are around John B explains that his mother left when he was a toddler, though he doesn't offer a reason. Nothing is mentioned about JJ's mother. The Cameron family has Rose, who plays a minor role as Ward's wife and Wheezie's mother. As a stepmother to Sarah and Rafe, she isn't their favorite person. Whether or not this trend is intentional is unclear.
