About Shameless
You’ll find that Frank Gallagher leaves his eldest daughter Fiona to hold down the house, donning the proverbial apron and making sure her younger siblings do their chores, keep a clean(ish) house and stay fed. Fiona, in a difficult position being the eldest of the Gallagher children, takes the responsibility of child-rearing which often results in humorous outcomes.
One example of this in episode 4 when the middle Gallagher child Debbie, after becoming depressed with her Aunt’s passing, decides to steal a toddler from a birthday party. Fiona and the rest of the siblings devise a plan to return the boy to his family while going unnoticed by the increased police presence in the area.
My Thoughts
As a middle child, I never felt a responsibility to take care of my younger siblings. But I did become a mom at a very young age and wife to a sailor. While it was certainly my responsibility, I don’t think I was fully prepared for the task of being a mom and living alone, so far away from the support of my family. I got through it though and sure do wish that I knew then many of the things that I do now.
Have you ever felt a similar weight as Fiona feels, like the entire world is on your shoulders? One where the weight of a certain job falls to you, even though you are not the one designated to take on the task?
