But in some episodes, like this one, one of the kids (in this case, Frankie,) behaves like such an egregious s**tface, that I find it painful to watch. I should say that I have sympathy for Sam, which I do, but I feel like her character simply didn't set any boundaries for these kids, and she generally lets them talk to her however they want, act however they want, and do whatever they want. They keep doing it because there are never any consequences for any of their antics. I hope her actual daughters are better, more compassionate, more thoughtful humans than the characters that are loosely based on them.
