Well, this. I like that, in general, they began to raise more adult topics, most likely because they realized that they would not be taken to Disney+ anyway. But I generally think that the popular LGBT slogan of recent years is wrong, that in order to be "honest" or "yourself", you need to make a coming out. Approximately one fifth of minors after coming out to their families end up on the street, especially those who belong to ethnic/religious minorities, like Viktor and Rahim. But now it is considered that you are a fake if security is more important to you than openness. It is clear that it will be the parents' fault if they do not accept the child, but this moral superiority will not help the minor much to survive without a home.
@Noordzee: for many people, keeping such an important part of their life to themselves and not confessing to their loved ones is very difficult and also very harmful to their psychological health. Of course, if you know that in your culture for belonging to LGBT people are shot or tortured-you need to hide or run if possible. But if there is a chance that you can share with your loved ones, and they will accept you - isn't it worth trying? Again, you need to take into account that teenagers can not know absolutely everything that is going on in the head of their parents, how should they guess that the coming-out will end badly for them? Plus, the world is becoming more open every year, and there are more and more chances that the older generation will be more tolerant. The very fact that now more and more often they say that you need to be honest and "yourself" already indicates that many more people did it, and as a result decided that it was worth it-even if their parents did not accept them and kicked them out, and had to look for a home with friends, etc.And those who eventually accepted - were able to build a much more open and close relationship with their relatives after that, and it was definitely worth it.
it's getting better with each episode. At the beginning of the series, I thought that I was already closer in level to "Sex Education" than to a light teenage melodrama, and by the end it already looked like a serious drama. I like that everyone can be understood in principle, and it is difficult to condemn even for not doing the right thing. Benji really tells Victor all the time that he should not hope for anything good in his relationship with his mother - but he himself has burned himself enough on this topic, and does not want Victor to suffer, and this is how he tries to protect him. Lake probably shouldn't have told her mom about Felix's mother's situation. But she's just a teenager, and she can't do in such a difficult situation without adult support at all. She worries about her boyfriend that next time his mother will not just break the plates, but maybe break them on Felix. At the same time, although Felix is right that he has become dependent on the decisions of a social worker, but he himself is held hostage in this stalemate, where the mother demands respect for herself as a parent, but at the same time she is not able to behave like a responsible parent. And it's really time to save Felix, he doesn't have to do it all by himself.
It's nice to see how Victor's mom tries to understand and support him. In vain he is so harsh with her at times, she also needs time to accept all this…
I don't understand Benji at all this season, he puts too much pressure on Victor, imho. You should be happy for your boyfriend, and not make him a pride icon-activist. Give him some damn time, and enjoy the time together…
And I'm glad that Victor began to behave more adequately, while Benji — less adequately. Some kind of balance began to turn out))) And then in the first season it was somehow insulting for Benji.
It's understandable that Lake didn't betray anyone. In fact, what she told her mother is the only right decision in this case. Felix's mother, and even more so himself, clearly need professional help. The task of child protective services is not to take the child away from the parents, but to take care of the child's well-being if the parents are unable to do so.
But here you can understand Felix - he trusted his girlfriend so much that he brought her to meet his mother, having kept their difficulties secret all these years (even Victor did not know about them!). And when it all ended with CPS, it's clear how he feels.
And about "did not like" - no, he just starts to see mom in a different light after this frank conversation. On the contrary, he is glad what understanding and care she shows here.
It has already become a tradition how Benji behaves like an asshole every episode, and then apologizes, and everything is fine. At first I thought, okay, that's nice, he admits his mistakes. But it's getting kind of suspicious...
Aah, my sunshine Felix 😭💔 all these years he tried to be strong and finally gave himself a slack, burst into tears on the shoulder of Vic's mother 🥺 at least everything would get better for him 🙌🏻 now they will obviously start to bring him with Pilar :( okay, let's see what happens Benji doesn't seem as cute as he seemed at first, every episode there are small bells that I don't like; ( and Rahim in a Blackpink T-shirt is just a top 😁💓
Как-то незаметно этот сериал перешёл из guilty pleasures в умную и берущую за душу историю. Финт с Рахимом вообще классный: не успел Виктор оглянуться, и уже сам ролевая модель)

Rahim is cute, I wonder how his branch will be opened further
Felix and Lake💔
