Breaking the Cycle of Bad Parenting: Jenny was taught by her mother to look out only for herself and use people. Watching her young daughter drive other kids away by following her example makes Jenny realize that, if both of them don't fix their attitudes, they will both end up friendless. | |

My Beloved Smother | |
| Workin' Moms / int_b58c51d8 | comment |
My Beloved Smother: Several mothers in the protagonists' mother-child group evoke this trope. Characters often argue about various parenting techniques. Protective mothers of the group critique those with lenient attitudes to their children. Sometimes they're even sceptical about vaccines and certain methods of breastfeeding. Kate's mother becomes overbearing when she starts babysitting Charlie. This leads to arguments about ways to raise a child. | |

Surprise Pregnancy: Anne becomes pregnant in season one, despite just returning from maternity leave. She accepts it at first, until she realises having two kids is already a handful and decides to get an abortion. After trying for a second child, Kate falls pregnant again... after finding out her husband was cheating on her. Needless to say, it's an inconvenience. She has the baby anyway, and the two eventually get back together. | |

Family Versus Career: This is a major theme throughout the show. Characters have to make sacrifices for both their family and their professional lives, which have both negative and positive effects for them. | |
