This was perfect, literally the exact kind of stuff I love. About a regular family dealing with regular life stuff. The parents had certain hopes and dreams for the kids lives, the kids had other plans. Everyone means well, but emotions run high and things sometimes come out in not the best way, and everyone’s hurting. 

I’d love to see this performed as a play or turned into a movie. If just reading the script was this good, I’m sure acted out it would be even better.
