"""Parenthood"

Quote:
Katims has indeed introduced a few modern issues to the show, including a stay-at-home dad, a working mother struggling to “have it all,’’ and an examination of Asperger’s syndrome through one child’s story line. This was a very personal touch for Katims, whose son has the disorder.
