Am I the only one who felt bad for Miranda during the dinner scene on her birthday?


I used to feel bad for Miranda when her birthday got ruined when she realized that Mrs Doubtfire was really Daniel, as a kid I used to think she was a good person and a good mother.

I don't think she was a bad person, but I honestly didn't feel too bad for her, because in my opinion, she didn't seem like the best mother. Her and Daniel both needed to change their ways. They obviously loved their kids, but they weren't doing what was best for them until the end.

She ruined her son's birthday and the climactic scene only happens because she wants to make a big spectacle on her own birthday, and insists on dragging Doubtfire along even though that was the one night she was "busy." So no, I don't feel sorry for her.

Yes, you are.
Besides, Miranda is really a terrible mother.
