i’m sure Maya will make it out okay, especially with her family not being dysfunctional

Every time I read posts about Maya's future, that one comment about how Maya is going to inevitably kill herself always comes to my mind

>especially with her family not being dysfunctional

Not really, we know from the last stream that her mother is the bitchy type that won't be proud of her only real kid unless she manages to accomplish something, so Maya is kinda left to her own devices.
Coco has 0 ideas on how to handle the situation if not for short term solutions which inevitably only serve to make Maya more dependent on others (such as making the presentation on her behalf).
Mymy has 0 interest in helping Maya and actively makes fun of her.
The father wasn't even shown!

Sorry but I see no way where Maya has some sort of happy ending unless a fucking miracle comes crashing down from the sky

i never said they were fantastic, or even very good, but they’re not dysfunctional. when i think of dysfunctional, i think of a household full of physically/emotionally abusive, angry people who cannot go a day without emotional outbursts and blaming others. Maya’s household is not even close to something like that. not to mention Coco and Mymy seem pretty happy with their current lives.

Perhaps you didn't get what I was going for. It's dysfunctional towards Maya for the reasons I have stated above. Well sure Coco lives a good life and by proxy Mymy, but why doesn't Maya then?

i think i understand what you’re going for, but i still wouldn’t call it dysfunctional. maybe a bit neglectful, which i guess you could argue is dysfunctional, but when i personally think of dysfunctional i imagine people who are outright abusive and cruel.
linguistics aside, how bad are Maya’s problems REALLY? most of it seems like your average autistic teenager shit to me. oh no, she’s lonely and has anxiety, the absolute horror. millions of people have gone through similar situations and didn’t end up on the streets.
maybe everyone is seeing something i don’t, but Maya doesn’t strike me as someone who is doomed, she might not be as successful as Coco and Mymy in the long run, but she’ll probably end up okay.
