*bursts into the ted lasso tag covered in blood*
THE WHOLE GOAL OF BEING A MANAGER OF PEOPLE IS TO COACH THEM TO THE POINT WHERE THEY NO LONGER NEED YOU! GOOD MANAGERS KNOW THEY ARE SUPPORTING CAST AND NOT THE MAIN CHARACTER! IT’S A LOT LIKE PARENTHOOD BUT IT’S NOT A SUBSTITUTE! TED MISSED HIS KID! HE WANTED TO BE THE STABLE AND LOVING PARENT HE NEVER HAD! HE CHOSE TO DO BEST BY HIS SON BUT ALSO BY HIMSELF! JUST BECAUSE YOU LOVE A THING DOESN’T MEAN IT’S MEANT TO BE PERMANENT! GOODBYES CAN BE SAD AND HARD BUT STILL THE RIGHT THING TO DO! BEING A GOOD COACH - AND PARENT - IS ABOUT KNOWING WHEN TO LEAN IN AND KNOWING WHEN TO LET GO!
#the discourse saying ted's move back didn't make sense i hate it i hate it i hate it#ted was always motivated by changing people and he did that#he didn't have anything else to prove at richmond#but he had a hell of a lot of prove to himself and henry#and like any good dad he recognised that uprooting his kid to suit his life wasn't putting henry first#going back to kansas was the only ending where ted could be selfish and selfless all at once and finally find that balance in his character#i'll die on this fucking hill tbh#ted lasso#ted lasso spoilers
