As the female lead, Kym's experience and personality should be the focus, but adding a dispensable feeling to her feels superfluous and diverts the audience's attention.
Losing control and killing his younger brother is the reason why Kym and his family have had a sensitive and conflicted relationship for so many years, but the director's explanation of this history is too complicated and confusing. The key to many people's incomprehension is that they do not understand this matter.
The part where Kym quarreled with his mother was an explanation, but it ended in a hurry, so the audience might have been pulled to the next scene before they could react. Kym already had serious psychological problems when he killed his younger brother. It is very dangerous for him to take care of the child, but his mother deliberately asked her to take his younger brother. In the face of questioning, the mother could not give a reasonable explanation, so Kym was in this matter. Maybe it's just cannon fodder. She was used by her mother, or at least her mother's dereliction of duty caused her to make mistakes, but the director did not give a clear explanation.
Kym was very wronged and hoped to be forgiven and tolerated, but losing Ethan was a big blow to her sister and father. They tried to accept Kym, but the wound was too wounded, and no one could be too reluctant.
Time is good medicine, they are already relieving, and there is still hope for the future.
Just like in our life, those pains and injuries cannot be healed without our intentions. Too many twists and turns in the past can only be digested slowly with time.
