Teen Wolf - 30 Day meme

Day 6- a touching moment

There are several I could bring up. One thing this show does very well is craft layered relationships between characters that goes a bit beyond the easy stereotype interactions. It also acknowledges that kids really do love and need their parents who love them back -> even if they kind of baffle each other.

Scott's not really set up for success. He just moved in with his mom from a dad she says they're much better off without. She's never going to be up for mom of the year. She's young, works long, irregular hours as a nurse, and is a little overwhelmed with Scott. She tries though, you can see that she wants to make it work, but she's lonely, she doesn't know why Scott's suddenly acting out, and they obviously don't have any kind of cushion money-wise.

This is a clip from the prom episode. Scott's picked up a suit from God knows where with a jacket held together by duct tape. His mom's with him in his room, and they actually have a really nice conversation where he's talking about Alison and you can see that they do really care about each other.



The other 30 days.
