What an end to the series.
Working in healthcare, this episode cuts more than most. I sit in the role of Mr Porter. I know why he acted the way he acted.
And that is not counting being a parent. I have watched this and the other series’s from the perspective of a parent. I never want to experience what the parents of Hannah Baker did. My son understood why I had to hug him for several minutes.
Afterwards we discussed Tony. He had a lot to take on and I wanted to get across that Tony did not need to keep all the secrets without talking to someone. He did not need to share the secrets themselves, but he could have talked to someone about aspects of them, and what it was like to keep them. For the secrets he kept, were in my view, secrets that someone his age should not have had to keep.
On a different topic, while I had a meeting at work, my son went out to meet friends in town earlier today. Sadly for him, not all were able to make it, but he will see them again on Monday, assuming that he or them are not ill (he was at home for two days last week). My wife and I had a discussion about how much money would be acceptable for him to spend. My wife and I disagreed, but he ended up spending the higher amount that had been discussed. One of is I guess did not consider inflation in what children would want to spend. Saying that, a lot of the money was on food and drink.
