I’m catching up on old seasons - and I’m a bit confused why most of the parents can’t visit? Is it really a visa issue or do we think it’s more for show dramatics? I don’t think I realized it was so difficult to just come for a week or something

    Yup! Visitor visas for the US are hard to obtain, expensive, and can take a long time for most foreign visitors. I honestly didn’t know either until a couple years ago! But for example, my family from mexico has to show that they are financially stable and well established in mexico, so US officials can feel comfortable enough that they won’t just try to stay in the US. Among other requirements!
