Yes, that is a painful scene! I also don't like the parenting of Don's kids after the divorce... Betty turns really cruel! The first 2 seasons she showed some empathy towards Sally, but that changes radically in seasons 3 and 4. It is very difficult to watch those scenes for me at least now.

The feminist issues in this series can be painful to watch. Some days I get upset watching the demeaning situations, the women have to go thru!

But the sum of the show is positive IMO. Certainly does illustrate how far we've changed in just 30-40 yrs!
