Okay genuine question here. Where was child BoJack supposed to go? I doubt be even realized the treatment he was getting was way out of the ordinary. Hollyhock got out early because of her mother who left the family early on, and had a decent upbringing, and could recognize the the bad - and rightfully so - walked away. BoJack could only look back and realize the things he’s been through. But he being as he is after finding and recognizing his past is definitely on him but I guess that’s for another time

This sub is progressing into stage 4 of ended-show-subreddit-syndrome
At least we are not in stage r/okbuddychicanery of ended-show-subreddit-syndrome
Tbh I see nothing wrong in going that route
Please don’t let it get to that
I can only read through so many 20 image pun posts
not as bad as r/BatmanArkham never as bad as r/BatmanArkham never let it get there. please. I love that subreddit but God dammit if we let that happen to this sub I will have a fit
What are the stages?
I have always noticed that sometimes in a family one manages to break free of the cycle of abuse. I’m glad my dad was one of them. All his brothers and sisters ended up alcoholics and addicts and who treated their kids like shit. His dad and his grandfather, and many before him were the same.
My dad told me specifically that after sitting in the dark hungry after his father spent his whole check on alcohol screwing his family out of booze and electricity, he vowed to never put his children through that and to this day he kept his promise.
I never went hungry, I was never left wanting, and he worked so hard that he can’t even stand up anymore just to make sure my mom and I were comfortable and happy. My dad wasn’t perfect, but I’m so proud of him for breaking the cycle and I appreciate and pay forward his sacrifice as an adult.
My husband says that when his son was born, he said - aloud so that he’d hear himself and make it more a fact- “It ends here”.
And he worked incredibly hard to make that true. I’ve never seen a father and son relationship as healthy as theirs. Boundaries, love, respect, and a lot of humor.
This might sound bleak but this is why I’m not having kids. I don’t trust myself to be a good father and to not be like my parents, my mother especially. I don’t know if I ended up as a good person, but the least I can do is just step out and walk away.
Also the stretched human wojak faces just about made me shit myself laughing so there’s that.
That’s why for me my reaction to the letter scene was being devastated at first then being like, know what, I’m not even mad though, good for her.
Ironically, Bojack is by far the best of the three, but Hollyhock will probably be a better mom to Bojack’s nephews and/or nieces
