I’ve only watched the first three. This is a very strange series. I can’t wait to see how it plays out. The son is absolutely adorable, I don’t know if they explain exactly what it is that he has medically , and it breaks my heart to think of his struggles ahead. . The stuff with the cat is not funny.. I mean I know this woman has issues, but she couldn’t even bury it. She put it on the barbecue.😳😡😞 and she really thought her friend stole her coat? Why isn’t she in therapy anyway? It doesn’t look like they’re lacking for money .she might not be able to reveal her post traumatic stress to anyone she knows, but she can certainly talk to a therapist.
