      @@Babbling_Wizard why specifically History? If you said math you'd be right. But if you're referring to Hitler and people like that, Hitler was abused by his father who I'm pretty sure was Jewish. Either way his hatred of Jews brewed from his family and the culture he was around, his ideology has been around for ages. Technically the only way you could be "born evil" is if you have a mental illness that causes you to have no empathy

    He was abusive right to the very end. Even blames Craig the victim. Constantly apologizing saying he loves his son then does it again then apologizing then does it again and so on.
    Father's are supposed to protect their sons not hurt them. Being the very threat the sons need protecting from instead of keeping them safe shows the difference between good and evil.

Say you rape 6 women and you're caught, the DA can ask for the max on each count that could be anywhere from 10 years up to 30 years per victim. This guy who beat his kids got 45 years for each kid he beat, that means he has to do 45 years for each victim not all three at the same time. The guy will die in prison.

    I had so much anxiety watching this scene. It's like someone create a character arc based on my upbringing. Without trauma dumping here, the similarities between what Craig went through and myself is eerily similar. My father was an Italian boomer from Brooklyn. He came from a large family (one of six boys) and according to my aunt (my dad's older brother's ex-wife), each one of them had “hand trouble.” That was the way she described them having abusive tendencies. In other words, my father was never suited to have children yet he did. He got easily overwhelmed and responded with his fists. Even after his toxic personality alienated every single one of his children (including two half siblings I didn't know I had until I was a teenager), he still maintained he “did everything right” as a parent. I don't care what anyone says. No parent does everything right yet my father, thanks to his narcissism, went to his grave believing that he did.

      Are you serious? How do you think he got the bipolar diagnosis in the first place? It doesn’t just show up does it? That boy has been through trauma his whole life probably, or after his mom’s death, and then his father started to beat him. His bipolar symptoms showed through the past few seasons until his diagnosis, but if you pay close attention in the first season, you’ll see the symptoms were already there since the train episode. Saying he was toxic because you don’t understand how disorders work is beyond me. Trauma makes you do stupid sh*t. It makes you say stupid sh*t. Makes you do stupid actions. That’s what Craig did and we didn’t know why, and were worried about him until it all made sense. Later seasons just showed how he wanted to cope with his trauma and everything, but learned from those mistakes. And what was he doing before that tho? Learning. He has owned up to his mistakes time and time again. His ending with Ellie was like a closure. Like he had finally found peace. You can’t call a person who went through such trauma toxic. He’d been through a lot and all he needed was help. He was better in the end, was that not enough for you? Cause it sure was for me.

    I'm honestly surprised that Albert didn't launch into a full lecture about not going anywhere near Joey or Angela ever. I would've probably written something in the script like, "If you see either of them anywhere, you are to immediately turn your back and walk away! Don't even acknowledge their existence! You understand?!?!"
    But that's what I would've expected at the time if I was Craig.

    This is what I miss about older television, is that even teen shows addressed or displayed real issues. Whether it was That's So Raven, Zoey 101, Degrassi, Gilmore Girls, or any tween/teen show, they at least addressed serious issues with society or our young lives. Now, shows just have shock value but never seem to sit down and say, "this is why you don't do drugs", instead we get fucking Euphoria and all these shows that expose young minds to drugs, sex, and violence incredibly early on.
