*** Except that, even when they are right about her irresponsibility, they\\\'re still being uptight and judgmental about it. Hence, the impasse in Lorelai\\\'s relationship with her parents and why they will never get along with each other...well that\\\'s my take on it anyway. Ex. In \\\"Richard In Stars Hollow\\\" where Richard spends the day with Lorelai and criticizes her eating habits, her clothing choices, the way she interacts with her co-workers, and her relationship with her daughter. Now, while he may have had some legitimate points about all of these things (notably, Lorelai being okay with Rory accepting a car Dean made for her, without asking whether or not he had it checked by a mechanic) I think the point that the writers were trying to make was that neither Richard nor Emily respects Lorelai as an adult capable of making her own choices, which is especially egregious considering that by the age of 32 she\\\'s [[SelfMadeWoman raised an honor student, bought a house, worked her way up from a maid to executive manager of a successful inn, and is putting herself through business school]].

I just removed the \\\"Except that,...\\\" part from the YMMV page because it\\\'s natter, and I\\\'m not sure how to integrate ot. If someone else knows how it could work.

In general I restored a bunch of content that was deleted recently because it all looked perfectly valid, especially for a YMMV page, and just needs to be cleaned in case other people see some issues with it. Just don\\\'t delete it wholesale!
