Wooden acting from Spears and much of the cast and the fact that boarding school is not conducive to a psychologically healthy childhood (no love or guidance from mom or dad).
Nope. The show doesn't even come across as a positive memory in 2018. Terrible.
Not sure if you're trolling or if this is an honest post.
In case it's a real post; the boarding school is a literary device to get the kids away from the parents and adult supervision for the most part. The kids can be as psychologically healthy or unhealthy as the writers decide. It's not real life.
It's like in the Harry Potter universe, the lack of parents and adult supervision allows for the kids to have adventures and drama and solve things on their own. They realized that tweens and teens don't really want to watch a show about kids that have no agency since their parents keep butting in so they get them away from that with a boarding school.
Dan did the same sort of thing on iCarly with a girl living with her older, but immature brother and both of the parents out of the picture.
But she has a point about Spears ! She had zero acting skill and you can tell she only got the role by being the youngest sister of Britney.
