** When Dawn says she could have handled it, Sharon says she knows that. However, as she adds on, she is still her mother and "sometimes [she] wants to take care of her".

* It was a low blow and rather mean, sure, but the scene in "Claudia and the Phantom Phone Calls" where Kristy berates Mary Anne for Richard's OverprotectiveDad behavior (to the point of calling him "crazy") causes Mary Anne to snap that Kristy wouldn't know anything about dads since her father left. While a TearJerker on Kristy's side (and Mary Anne [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone instantly regrets it]]), it does show that [[https://screenrant.com/netflix-baby-sitters-club-best-times-mary-anne-spier-overcame-shyness/ the shy Mary Anne has her limits and isn't afraid to stick up for her family.]]

* Cynthia Summers' costume design has garnered major props from fans and reviewers for her modern and stylish yet realistic take on the girls' personal styles. Specifically, all the girls' respective fashion choices at the Brewer wedding are an accurate and glamorous reflection of their personalities.

* In "Jessi and the Superbrat," Jessi considers quitting ballet to pursue Internet stardom because, after failing to get a leading role at her new ballet school, she feels that she's not any good anymore. Her mom, Janice, calls her out on this]], making it clear that her daughter is ''not'' quitting ballet after the family made many sacrifices so she could attend the ballet school she ''begged'' to enroll in for three years. Janice further says that, while quitting due to a lack of interest would be one thing, given that Jessi's wounded ego has much to do with her sudden choice to quit, that's a poor reason to quit after years of hard work. Jessi recognizes her mother's right and that she's behaving like a SpoiledBrat because she didn't get the role she wanted.

** This leads to Mary Anne herself joining in and saying Watson's right. She straight-up reminds Kristy that she's always done more in her relationship with her father than he himself has since they were young; naming various times over the years when her father claimed he was coming to visit (such as for recitals or birthdays) and how Kristy would get excited to see her dad only for him to cancel. Dawn also says how her father, while in a different state, can't see her as much, he always puts forth the effort to see her as much as possible however he can and she loves him for it.
** The above makes it clear for Kristy that simply being there for your kids in their day-to-day lives is the bare minimum for parents. She finally accepts she shouldn't spend her life waiting for her father to show up when he clearly isn't going to. This leads her to truly accept Watson as her dad. The situation even sparks Watson's idea to ask the kids if he can legally adopt them as his own children, much to Liz's joy. When he waits for Kristy's answer, she simply replies with her first-ever "I love you" to Watson, much to the latter's happiness at finally earning Kristy's love.

** This leads to Mary Anne herself joining in and saying Watson's right. She straight-up reminds Kristy that she's always done more in her relationship with her father than he himself has since they were young; naming one time in elementary school when Kristy canceled a soccer game she trained hard to participate in because her father said he was going to visit her, only to cancel the day of. Dawn also points out that being there for your children and being active in their day-to-day lives is the bare minimum for parents; her father simply isn't doing that and she shouldn't spend her life waiting for him to finally show up when he clearly isn't going to.
