Some Spoilers!!
I just started season 4; and Grace seems awfully standoffish toward her mom. I was wondering if there was any specific reason for this I can't remember...? Jackie and Kevin divorced at the end of season 3; but is there anything else that Grace would be mad about, or is she just being a generally stubborn teenager?
Serious question, so reasonable answers only please! Thanks. :)
I'm not sure that there's a clear answer, but rather the viewer has to interpret. There's some of Grace becoming a teen who pushes her limits and denies all her parents' warnings and there's some of the much built up resentment against her mother over her addiction and betrayal of the marriage. Most kids go through a shift in perspective of their parents as they start to look at things more critically and realize their parents are not the perfect authorities they thought them when they were little. They see their flaws. In the case of Jackie, those flaws were bigger than what most kids have to accept.
shareGrace knew her mother was a liar, I believe. I may be mixing my seasons up, but I think she knew something wasn't right with her mother.
