I’m a freshman in high school and I love editing🤷♀️ I edit anything when I feel inspired and I try to post every other week on Monday at the least, if you have the time and wouldn’t mind spending a minute or two and checking out my channel, it would be greatly appreciated, and if you want, and like what you watch you could even subscribe, maybe. Anyway, have a good day! {disclaimer} I don’t own the scenes or videos or audios, I only own the editing.
You see… the scenes when Fiona was at Shiela’s calling out Monica of being a shitty mom who’s never there shows her family cares, but only if she puts in the effort. Monica should’ve took this as a mental breakthrough and changed her life for the better, but unfortunately she didn’t. Monica chose both her drug addiction and not getting the help she needs for overcoming her bipolar disorder over fixing her life and being there for her family and picking up the pieces. While I understand Monica does show love for her children and gives good advice by writing numerous birthday cards she never got to send over the years and giving Ian good advice saying “you can’t apologize for being you”, Monica forgot the simple aspect of just being there which speaks volumes. Fiona was forced to take on parenting duties at the age of nine instead of living a normal childhood and teen life. She had every right to be upset and angry with her, and Monica should’ve took Fiona expressing such as a life changing moment, but unfortunately she didn’t. On another note, while I don’t condone this, Frank and Monica seem to be perfect to each other given their addictions.
Frank; being in such hard denial and willing to excuse his wife's leaving is partly from wanting his children's to excuse his behavior. Fiona; Being a mother/sister to all her siblings made her forget to care about her own wants and needs. The saddest part is that there are families out there who experienced the same as them.
When she says “you were my mother too!” And instantly looks like a sad scared child again…the acting is so powerful…and to have a pretty healthy normal upbringing & being able to bring those emotions to that scene & make it *so* real…Emmy Rossum is incredibly talented & I will never understand how she never won an Emmy for it, she wasn’t even nominated! But William H Macy was like 6x! So messed up, makes zero sense.
Okay but where you’ve edited Fiona talking about what the kids accomplished and then showing how fucked up they end up becoming anyway is kinda heartbreaking…
And then Fiona just left too she didn’t get to see what became of the kids she raised she wasn’t at Ian and mickeys wedding she never met her nephew she just left Liam to fend for himself She didn’t get to say goodbye to the house she grew up in At the end of the show Liam didn’t even know if he had a place to live She was legally Liam’s guardian and she just left him because everyone else had grown up already She was the heart of this show
Anything after Fiona leaves doesn’t count in my mind. I don’t think she would have ever left in the reality of their world, but the show isn’t reality & in reality she wasn’t being paid enough or appreciated & I can’t blame her at all for moving on. But all the writing after her departure (for the most part) is ridiculous
0:45 I know this is supposed to be emotional, but look at how he just sits down when Fiona yells at him. This man knows that there’s a little bit of his mother and Monica in Fiona 😂😂😂
What really pisses me off is nobody really appreciated Fiona, she did everything she could for those kids, she dropped out for them for fucks sake and she never got a thing. She barely did anything for herself and when she did, she got shit on, when she made a mistake she got shit on, especially by Lip. Lip continuously fucked up and got himself expelled from college but did Fiona ever shit on him the way he did to her? No. She made a small mistake and Lip loses it. I feel like the only ones who really appreciated her were Ian and Carl (with the exception of Liam). I just feel like Carl didn’t show it but he definitely appreciated and cared for her you could tell, like when he overheard her talking to Sean and then brought her the money. Ian cared too. Ian cared for all of them but I feel like he was going through so much of his own shit mentally he didn’t have the time to show it. Fiona had every fucking right to leave, she barely did anything for herself, she gave her life for those kids, she deserved to live for herself for once and I’m tired of the fandom hating on her because she was amazing and such a badass, she did everything for those kids
Monica definitely could’ve been an amazing mother she just didn’t get the help she needed that doesn’t excuse her leaving that was a asshole move but it’s not her fault she did it
This has got to stop and the fathers need to stop with their psychological manipulations and I have spent months standing my ground on what is right not stuff that is bad and I am trying to break the cycle of abusive relationships!
@@stanleyyelnats3754he respected her authority (sort of) when there witnesses,otherwise he didn’t care especially when she left,’abandoning’ the ones he forced her into taking care of.she got out ,she needed to.yes she should have taken Liam with her at the very least given that she chose to be guardian of the kids until they were 18,but there wasn’t much of a choice tbh.she did something for her for once.
All of these I keep watching and i realise my family is like this my big sister had to raise me my brother was with drugs my other one ran away with his boyfriend we have a awful reputation because death have been on our hands all the time. If you go on the news page you can see me when I was seven I ran away because my brother had a dead body in his room my mother blocked off contact with my sister when she was 13 my oldest brother was 7 the middle brother was 3 and I was 3 weeks old. My father has multiple side chiks and doesn't bother to call so this is what I mean
That’s so sad that this is a reality for you…The show is emotional for me to watch and I had a healthy childhood. I don’t think I could watch it if I were in your shoes…
