What a poor example this TV series portrays to the public. The stereotypical portrayal of a mother who enables her children to stay dependent upon her, and takes on yet another child as a lover is offensive. While it may seem progressive to show a woman taking a much younger lover, Julia Ormond’s character uses zero discernment in doing so. It’s obvious the character has done no post divorce introspection and instead acts like a wounded bird who is gullible beyond belief. And is the ending supposed to show a happily ever after with a disturbed young man who is totally financially dependent? He has a good mother substitute and she has a new little boy. What a disturbing message.
