After watching this movie, what impressed me the most was not Mr. Rogers, but the relationship between Lloyd and Andrea.
As a full-time mother, Andrea is very hard to take care of children every day, so her husband Lloyd persuaded her to find a babysitter at the beginning, but she said that she was afraid that the babysitter would be bad for the children, so she decided to take care of the children by herself. I thought that only Chinese babysitters would abuse their children. It turns out that parents in the United States also have such concerns.
Furthermore, when asked about his wife's occupation, Lloyd said that Andrea is a public interest lawyer, and I only knew that Andrea is so good. The US lawyer's license is notoriously difficult to obtain. If Andrea can pass the exam, it definitely belongs to Kochi, and she chose to be a public interest lawyer. Helping those poor people in lawsuits shows that she is still very kind and has a sense of justice. Although it belongs to people of color, it is definitely very good. Even such an excellent person temporarily gave up his career for the sake of his family and chose to be a full-time mother.
But she's also very fun to be a stay-at-home mom, and I remember one scene when Lloyd was watching a tape of Mr. Rogers' show, and Andrea came over and asked Lloyd to hold the baby, and what I remember correctly was Your turn. It means that even in taking care of children or doing housework, the husband and wife work together according to the division of labor. It is not because Andrea has no income for the time being, and Lloyd is the shopkeeper. He also has half of the children. He also needs to accompany the children every day.
These bits and pieces are very worth learning, the equality between husband and wife. Lloyd was angry and didn't accompany his emergency father. Andrea made the right decision for her husband. She stayed for her husband and stayed in the hospital to do her duty as a child. Once again, it shows that husband and wife are one body, and both people have to pay and take care of each other more.
Later, Lloyd apologized and cried bitterly, saying that he finally understood that his wife and son were what he really wanted. At that time, even Andrea, who was still angry, still chose to hug her broken husband. At that moment, I thought, this is really love.
