Scott Triggered Some People

And I agree with him. Listening to the women on this podcast need Lorelei to be “right” about Rory’s moral dilemma and Lorelei’s self righteous reaction was VERY annoying. The dysfunction of R & L’s relationship shows up in the confrontation scene about Dean. This is a classic case of too little parenting too late and the parentification/emotional incest of Rory all her life, along with Lorelei’s need to be top dog. THIS is why Rory appears disgusted by her mother and wants to get the heck out of Dodge to Europe with her g-mother. The problem isn’t that L was right, it was that she had to be right when her daughter was vulnerable and clearly messed up from a lifetime of parenting her own mother (which is a form of abuse, btw, and probably caused R to make a poor decision that hurt her in the first place. These women sound like they’ve been cheated on and have bitterness about the “other woman” - and, sorry, that just isn’t R in this scenario. She needed a mother who was supportive and understanding in that moment, because she never really had that — not really, despite how close they seem. Kudos to Scott for his empathetic understanding of childhood development and generational trauma.
