I suppose that every era has its own issues to promote via TV shows. Once it was Sexism, cigarettes, rock band life style. These days it's feminism (sometimes to a radical extent), racism (up to a reverse degree) and as this show that touches the subject of teenage psychology and the destructive consequences.

I'm a bit old fashioned in my choices of a movies and shows. I believe that people should be judged not by their race or gender, but by their talents in various fields. That's why the pure fem fests and reverse racism movies bother me a bit. I simply refuse to feel guilty for being white, pretty successful male, with a happy and functional family. And I had to work very hard to get there. So I believe that those movies distort and misrepresent the reality and in some case even ruin entire genres with those attempts.

This show is about teenagers and I think it's suppose to provide some sort of a lesson. Though I believe the lesson is incorrect and unsuitable for young generation. Instead of teaching the audience to be better and learn to deal with all the hardships that may come their way, as quoting Forrest Gump "S... happens", it indulges into a weakness of juvenile teenager who surrendered, blamed everything on everybody and ended her life. Is that the lesson that we want to teach our children? Not me. Shows of this type misguide and can lead to much bigger problems, when they will be required to be stronger and better, but they just wouldn't be able to do so.
