Mike was right - they should’ve let Axl deal with the situation himself. His mother gave him the checklist for what he should’ve done before going on a long trip - Axl is the one who didn’t listen. All this did is teach him that they’ll help him and save him no matter how impulsive or ungrateful or mean he gets.
You say that, but I wonder how many (good) parents would abandon their children with little to no resources to help themselves. Also, isn't parental love supposed to be unconditional (no matter how impulsive, ungrateful, or mean they get)? If your love for your child is dependent on their mood and behavior, maybe don't claim to be a loving parent
Unconditional love doesn't mean that parents are devoid of feelings. You can be angry, hurt, disappointed, feel unappreciated as a parent and still love your children. What you're talking about is coddling and no, that's not a loving thing to do to a child. Letting Axl deal with his own mess isn't 'abandoning'him, it's letting him get out of the mess he created, aka, be an adult. Tough love IS unconditional love.
I’m with Mike on this, he didn’t care about his mother advice, but still she’s the first one he calls to bail him out. If he’s an adult like he claims let him clean up his own mess!
I'm in this phase of my life. Being a teenager was difficult, but the other side of it is much more difficult. I thought I'd have it all figured out by the time I was 25-30, and maybe I did for a few years, but then my overconfidence dropped and it feels like I've been treading water ever since.
Didn’t she say to Axl something like: you’re my favorite- when he returned home? Was that a later episode & this video is an old episode or is the video the later episode & the one I mentioned is the old episode?

Sometimes you only learn through pain.

Season 8 christmas episode after he comes back home after not talking
The ENTIRE time I though Axl was Freddie Highmore. I was even sure of that until I checked
he is not a SURGEON
I don't see willy wonka 😂
Got a little face blindness eh
I'm with Mike on this: perhaps Axl should have dealt with this himself
The reason sue is a drama queen that's why
lol map. Kids they are such contradictions. I would want less stories about people in the past to
Why didn’t he just use his phone
Axl is the favorite, she wouldn't pick up Sue from TN and she is a girl.
