My Thoughts On “Young Sheldon’’
Disclaimer: I’m not done with the series yet, im commenting based on how far I’ve watched the series .
I started binge watching the series “Young Sheldon” this year , and i think it’s great , i love how they touch upon real-life subjects like science , religion , family dynamics, romance etc .
Well, the main characters, which are Sheldon’s family , I would like to list what I think are their strengths and weaknesses.
MOM(A.K.A. Mary Cooper)
Strengths
- She loves and cares for her family
- She is respectful and kind to her kids.
- She doesn’t judge her children harshly or forces them to follow her religious beliefs .
- She’s a caring and emphatic individual , like that time when she actually showed care and compassion to Mrs Sparks even when they had their differences.
- She has a forgiving heart
Weaknesses
- She codles and babies sheldon a lot .
- Sometimes George doesn’t get an input and she thinks she can make all the decisions on her own especially when it concerns Sheldon.
- She practices some sort of favouritism towards Sheldon , she might not actually have a favourite and might just be worried about Sheldon because of him being a sensitive and *special* child .But , from the outside looking in , it sure looks like it .
- Sometimes, she makes it all about Sheldon , sometimes, I think she might have forgotten she has two other kids though.
DAD(A.K.A George Cooper)
Strengths
- He is a hard-worker and a very diligent man .
- He his patient I.e even when his kids are being cheeky/rude to him.
- He does well with tolerating his wife and trying to please her sometimes.
- He doesn’t shy away from correcting /chastising Sheldon , like that time he put their fridge apart to try and “fix” the sound coming from it 😅.
Weaknesses
- He is basically addicted to drinking beer , which is probably a bad idea for his health , he is already an over weight man and had a heart attack onetime , excessive alcohol intake is probably not a good idea.
- Some times when there are major issues he prefers to leave it for Mary to handle it , if he isn’t made to .
- He doesn’t really spend time with his daughter as much as he should , although he made up for it by taking her to dinner and teaching her baseball.
- He can be petty sometimes, like that time he was upset because Meemaw didn’t give him the recipe to her brisket .
‘’Georgie”(A.K.A Georgie Copper Jnr)
Strengths /good qualities
- Basically, his strength is "Strengh,"he is quiet strong and athletic.
- He has great hair 😌.#Just my opinion.
- He’s quiet good looking .
- He looks out for his siblings shows he cares for them, especially Missy , i loved that moment when he helped Missy with her homework and hung it up on his wall after she received her score .
- He seems like an independent young man , he held down about two jobs working for his neighbour who is a mechanic and later working for his meemawh’s boy friend .
- He’s a fit guy who loves working out
Weaknesses
- I am gonna say it straight at one point I kinda saw him as being pervy , that episode were he pretended to want to get baptised , so he could get baptised with his crush and ended up getting punched in the face for kissing her without consent?!.Yeah it really serves him right ✅️.
- He can’t seem to take a hint or “no” for an answer, it was obvious after her conversion that Veronica didn’t really want to be with him but he kept pushing a little too much, even getting close under the guise of a “friendship” .
- He seems obsessed with girls, and “you know what”.
- He lies to his parents even when it’s not necessary and he has been caught
Meemaw(A.K.A Connie Tucker)
Strengths/good qualities
- Takes time out of her day to spend time with her family 👪, having dinner with them every night .
- She cares for the kids.
- She actually gives them good advice sometimes.
- She looks good for her age 😁.
Weaknesses / negative qualities
- She’s addicted to gambling.
- She smokes .
- Sometimes she bickers uneccesaily with George
- She lies alot.
Missy (A.KA Melissa Cooper)
Strengths /good qualities
- She’s a quiet attractive young girl .
- She has pretty hair.
- She’s confident .
- She can stand up for herself .
- She’s strong both physically and emotionally.
- She is quiet friendly and gets along well with people , (polar opposite of Sheldon).
- She can be pretty sweet and sensitive, too, like the time she gave Sheldon a hug when he was crying .
Weaknesses
- I think she might have a bit of an anger issue.
- Can be physically violent, like the time she beat up a guy after a baseball game gone wrong or when she threw an apple at her crush .
Shelly (A.K.A Sheldon Cooper)
Strengths/good qualities
- Has an Impressive I.Q.
- He is knowledgeable on a lot of topics like religion , philosophy etc.
- He is a bookworm , he loves books 📚.
- He is Intelligent .
- Sometimes, when he is being called out for bad behaviour he thinks about and actually makes.it right .
- I’m probably a nerd for this, but I think he has a good dress sense ? I like the bow tie and shirt and how he neatly tucks it into his trousers .
- He is a neat and organised young man.
- He is confident although he overdoes sometimes .
Weaknesses
- He isn’t very emotionally intelligent;he has a high IQ but not a high EI.
- He is a little too blunt, which makes him come off as rude /cheeky.
- He is a “know it all” and feels the need to show off what he knows all the time.
- He can be insensitive at times.
- He tries to always get his way at all cost, kid almost can’t even take “no” for an answer.
- He is sometimes disrespectful to people who are older, like that time when he got a surgery and had to stay in a hospital he treated the nurse pretty badly , I’m glad he kinda made up for it later .
- He can be overly sensitive against the littlest things , he doesn’t like the outdoors and he needed his mom to take care of his “booboos” up until he decided to become more independent.
From what I have watched so far , I think that’s all I can say for now concerning Sheldon and his lovely family.
Remeber ;no human is without flaws , its all good as long as we all strive for ways to make ourselves better .Feel free to comment on anything you think I got wrong or I didn’t add 😁.
