So there's a show called Parenthood, maybe you've heard of it? It stars amazingly talented actors like Lauren Graham, Mae Whitman, and Craig T. Nelson.
If you've ever watched an episode of Parenthood, you know that the show takes you through the ups and downs of the mega-lovable Braverman family. You may also know that keeping up with this crew means for loads and loads of tears.
Trust me.
