Anyone still watch Young Sheldon?

Yep.

seaexplore Don't watch it. My DH has been gone almost a year - there is part of the episode where Mary is speaking at the funeral. Tore me up!!

Hugs to you, seaexplore.

Sheldon never really showed much emotion other than annoyance at others, that is part of his character.  She could not see his internal struggles, and he could not see or relate to her internal struggles.  Who was really there for Missy?  She was just really starting to connect with her father and he is very suddenly gone. Her Mom was dealing with her own, very natural feelings and was not there for Missy.  Mee Maw was struggling and Georgie was suddenly taking on a role he was thrown into.  I feel like Missy was feeling very much alone.  Let's think about what her future looked like also.  Mom stays angry, we see that in TBBT.  Georgie has his own family and we know there is tension there so they are not with Missy.  Not sure about Mee Maw.  I am totally speculating here, but her teen years were probably pretty lonely.  I am also going to speculate that Sheldon continued to receive a lot of attention from everyone.  I totally get her feelings and struggles.  

I also have a very strong opinion that you are not allowed to tell others how to mourn.  Missy was young when her dad died and did not know how to process everything.  Lashing out was her way.  

And I do hope that if this pea ever has a need for support, the rest of the peas will remember this thread. I'm appalled. 

How simple it would have been to post that instead of what you did.

You know what I do if Im reading a post that goes in a direction I find upsetting whether it was part of the OP or not? I close it and dont go back to it. There are numerous topics that one person or another could find upsetting.

Once the thread turned to the death in the show that anyone who watches knew was coming, it wasnt a big stretch to think the conversation could turn to illnesses and deaths we have experienced.

It wouldnt have cost you anything to just exit the thread when it turned in a direction you found upsetting. Instead you chose to shit on someone who told us horrible news that she hadnt felt up to sharing previously.


That being said, Im sorry you are going through a difficult time.

Aren’t you sweet.

I almost didn’t comment on this thread because of peaches like you.  

Thankfully I’m a big girl and it takes more than you to hurt me so whatever. Feel free to block me or whatever if you feel the need to be rude.

For everyone else- I’m ever so thankful for this community of loving and kind and supportive people for whatever anyone is dealing with in life. Thank you for being my friends who live in my phone. ❤️

eta: I’m sorry you too are dealing with a crappy hand samantha25 but I was relating to the loss of a spouse and what I’m dealing with and why I’m having a hard time watching it.  If you know anything about BBT and YS then you should have expected this thread to discuss things like the loss of a spouse/loved ones because that’s EXACTLY what this season is about.

Thank you.
