I can't speak highly enough of this series.
Several aspects drew me in and gripped my attention. I started to notice the how realistic the narrative was, how each event in a very human and relatable way, led to the next, and how relatable and conflicted each of the characters were. So often the heart triumphs over the head, and what's *right* or "best" is often as clear as mud, and in the end, we can never really know, exactly, what really is "best".
The characters portraied the multifaceted and often conflicted nature of people, specifically the parents, and how our perceptions of what's right and best are so often rooted in the norms and values of the society we grow and live in. And one aspect I particularly feel humans would do well to work on: How we so often equate how we feel about something or someone, with absolute fact and/or truth; when really, it's just how we feel, and does not necessarily have any bearing on the truth.
I particularly enjoyed how that inner conflict, and certainty of belief in what felt right and just, was brought out in the last episode and how the overall situation left so much for each of them, and us the viewers, to digest and make sense of.
In the end, there is often no way to make sense of it all; and acceptance of the flawed nature of the human condition, and the embracing of whatever we can scrape together and call "our truth", is perhaps only the "best" we can do.
