This show has been amazing, for all ages. This tackles so much that children do not get to see in Media more often then not. The main cast are a family of born and adopted children, some of which are caught in the throws of trying to figure out if they want to fallow there born culture or there adopted culture. This a story about coming to age and coming to terms with who you want to be, and how hard it can be for children born of another culture to relate to immigrant parents who had different upbringings.
On top of this, it pays respect to war veterans who struggle in the after math of a war, and how everyone deals with these things differently. Some are angry, some where there scars with pride, and others feel deep shame. Not only that, but on top of this they also have a female veteran with a disability caused by her time serving as a main character. They expose children to the day to day use of prosthetics for those who need it, and how to respect those boundaries, and how to respect the boundaries of your war veteran parents.
This is more then a story about giant robots, this is a story about children growing up in the shadow of something terrible they don't understand, but there parents, born and adopted, help them navigate there lives together. This is a story about family, about healing, about growth and change. This is a story about how yesterday may have been terrible, but today will be better, and tomorrow even more so.
