Post-parenting elegy

A fair description of how parental expectations of peer relationships with grown children are elusive, perhaps unattainable. No resolutions are suggested and you are left wondering what might happen in episode 2.

What’s the point?

Waste of time!
Depressing and no story.
I kept expecting something but it fell completely flat.
