Do they know Lucy's haircut makes her look 40?

[@wstine79]

It matches her mental age.

[@JackMensahBonsu]

Well she is

[@bigbearkat2010]

Well I mean it kind of makes sense really. She's already going to have an uphill battle being taken seriously as a woman minister alongside the inevitable questions of nepotism (what with her being the daughter of the previous minister). Calling to attention her age would just make things worse.

[@missmoxie9188]

@@lh9591 yes but why

[@lh9591]

Her hair was a very popular look at the time. The center part, chunky highlights, piecey layers flipped up. See also Meg Ryan in Kate and Leopold, or Ashley Simpsons hair in this episode- curled out layers.

Well said I think he might even be crazy as I was watching a bit of an episode of the show, 7th Heaven : on television years ago and I remember that he said no one is perfect except the holy trinity then, comes back here thinking he's part of the royal family blaming the a so called natural superpower instead of blaming let's say um , nature - what a hypocritical narcissistic mygonistic stubborn and delusional womaniser

[@malloryweeks3306]

God doesn’t give you anything that you can’t handle. Eric should already know this

[@AmbyJeans]

Mallory Weeks I think the point the show was trying to make is that even a "Godly" man like Eric has his moments of doubt and times when he's angry with the "Lord."

2:58 do CPS officers often take families accused of child abuse to the door of the people accusing them?

[@missmoxie9188]

RobDon good point

[@Hannah-gd3kc]

I know many social workers( family and their friends) and the answer is hell to the no

[@katiechisholm]

🤷🏻‍♀️ they might in some places. For instance, you know how mandated reporters are required by law to hotline if there’s any suspicion of abuse? Well, it’s supposed to be anonymous, but around here, it’s not. Idk how they’re able to pick and choose what rules they decide to follow, but it seems to vary from place to place.

[@Kyavata]

With CPS and DFACS you never know what the hell will happen, but you can rest assured it won't end well.

[@arg3824]

Yeah, that seems really dangerous. If the parents actually are abusing the kids, they would immediately know who to keep their kids away from in the future, and that kid could lose contact with someone who could help. I mean, everyone should keep their kids away from Reverend Camden, but that's a separate issue.

[@stanthemn]

As someone who grew up watching 7th Heaven, I can confidently say that the 7h Heaven episodes are the best in this series because they capture the ridiculousness of the show down to a T

[@maxhydekyle2425]

I had to watch this show so much as a kid, I never noticed how creepy and weird it is. It's like one of the leads was a creep or something.

[@evangeline77x]

@Amy Sternheim The father was accused of statutory rape, I don't remember if it was proven. One of the actresses (I think the middle daughter) said he made her uncomfortable on set.

[@Lostinmyhead23]

Princess Sparkle Pixie I believe there’s audio of him admitting to this but because the statue of limitations he was never convicted of anything

[@hoskins445able]

Look up Stephen Collins. He played the dad on 7th heaven. He admitted to molesting 3 incredibly young girls and I think he even did a 20/20 or dateline interview about it

[@Pantsinabucket]

If you’re a late 20s to early 30s or even 40s developmentally disabled person, your parents are likely gone and if they are that greatly increases your chances of not having a support network. In those situations, a traveling circus group that pays them well and is focused specifically on them and emphasizing their value and creativity sounds like a golden ticket.

[@mattharrelson7462]

The "I'm A Man: How to narc on your friends and family Podcast" sounds like a winner to me.
