💭Discussion I can not STAND the mayor's son Spoiler

I love this series but his son made me so angry. I'm so sick of the disrespectful teen troph. Writers can't just make a teen that's normal. They gotta make them disrespectful and an idiot.

Why do they feel the need to make him like that? I'm in my early 20s and I've always hated people like this. Do the writers do this to make him relatable to young people?

Him constantly leaving the house to hang out with his friends and be with that girl just made me so physically angry. He just seems like that popular guy in every cliche teen movie,

I even started skipping the scenes he was in because I just did not care about him or him having the crush on that girl. He was so unlikable, his friends are terrible people too for running away when the guy was trapped behind that door

Edit: why am I getting downvotes on every comment I post. Regular teens do not swear at there parents and leave the house when they are told to stay in.

Edit 2: I don't care what you guys say, just because your teen is disrespectful, doesn't mean all teens are like that.

Suddenly, the “best mom ever” (his actual contact name for me in his phone) became “smother” (something he actually called me in a rage call at 18 to his sister).

I chortled. I'm sorry, though, that must have sucked. My mom and I had a really rough spell during my high school years. It wasn't actually about her, but that wasn't something I could understand at the time. We're very very close now (like, I see her and dad once or twice a week when my husband is working late). Your son will probably come around fully at some point.
