Charles getting beaten by his abusive father has always stayed with me, since I was a young child. It's even more terrifying in that we never see his dad. Stephanie was in an awkward position, but she did the right thing by telling Jesse, meaning that Charles was in a safer environment.

My own beloved Grandma had died around the same time as I watched the episode where Papouli dies, so it helped me start to heal.

Through all the sad episodes of full house there was Danny to talk to his family members about what's going on and he makes it all better RIP Danny one of the best TV Dad's ever

[sockygaldamez]

What I loved about Full House is that they would never shy away from talking about serious issues every episode would always teach you lessons on what they were and how deal with them that’s always been a great show and still remains one of my favourites ❤️❤️❤️

RIP Bob Saget, one of my favorite TV dads growing up 🥺

[meagan]

Forgot to mention Papouli in the entry of losing a loved one. That episode gets me every time. 😢

This show was so good in so many ways. And seeing some of these issues in Fuller House, especially with Ramona and Jackson. This a great show that needs to come back.

I legit almost cried after seeing the Alzheimer’s episode and Danny saying he only will get worse until he dies, I was very surprised how low on the list was. Please make more Full House episodes, I love that show so much.

I knew the Charles' episode would be number 1 It was so heartbreaking for Steph to realise that because of her Charles won't be with his dad anymore an idea she can hardly fathom as being better for Charles.

My gosh, the Thanksgiving episode always gets me, as someone who lost their mother, at a young age, I can feel the girls pain. also Jesse‘s emotions are valid as well.

Kind of recently, I left my favorite stuffed animal on a plane, that I've had since birth. My mom went to get it and I was bawling in the car. I'm a little embarrassed, but I absolutely adore her and will never be embarrassed by loving her.

Whenever I see people say Michelle manipulated uncle jessie I always think "have you had a family member that you want sticking around?" "Did you handle it well at Michelle's age?"

[davidpumpkinsjr.]

Unlike a lot of 80s/90s family sitcoms, Full House never dealt with serious topics in a heavy handed way. It was always presented in a way organic to the show and the characters.

i remember growing up on this show and ALL of these issues still make me cry after 20+ years. I'm planning to show my own kids this show via streaming services and let it help them as they face similar issues growing up like peer pressure and bullying

[keirarees]

I grew up with this show, as a kid a lot of these stories went way over my head but now I understand them. My Dad taught me many of the same ones, as did my Mum. The Alzheimers one hits home now with my Dad’s diagnosis 10 yrs ago, but I always get a lump in my throat and cry whenever the girls talk about their Mum.
Special mention to Danny Tanners amazing Dad talks, may Bob Saget Rest in Peace.

Maybe do a video (or a community tab post) called, "Top 10 Relatable Julius Moments on Everybody Hates Chris":
Being cheap
Picked up extra work after getting a week off
Naming examples
etc.

I don’t know if this counts as a ‘serious issue’ but the episode Wrong Way Tanner is really good because it teaches Michelle (and us) that even if you make a mistake and even if you’re picked on or belittled for it, shouldn’t let it get to you because everyone screws up and embarrassed themselves from time to time. I know I have!! 😂😂

[samuelcollantes]

Happy sunday afternoon, Kirsten, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well

[Kpopkng]

The one of uncle Jesse moving out now hits home for me because every time my younger sister has to go back to Chicago for college my heart breaks and I never want her to go

[usvidragonslayer]

I like this show so much. Serious topics and all.
