I agree, kids are awkward and sometimes they stick lines in Henry’s mouth that are cringe worthy but I don’t think that’s Henry/Jared’s fault. So for example, the pizza line from The Queen is Dead got a lot of attention here on our forums. Some people thought it was really terrible of Henry and that he needed to grow up and he was being really childish, ect. And while I could see their point of view: my complaint was that it was bad writing. The line fell flat and made me roll my eyes at the writers not Henry.
I think if we get another few season and Henry is allowed to grow (and Jared along with him) the negative feelings will abate.
