(Exploring insecurity in season 3 episode 22 of “My Wife and Kids”

My Wife and Kids / ABC

On this particular episode of My Wife and Kids, J was cleaning the garage when she found a photo of Michael’s ex girlfriend in his memory box.

It sent her on the war path of drilling down to her worst fear; that Michael was still in love with his ex.

Nothing Michael could say or do, including a hilarious therapy session, could ease the tension in the house.

Every word that came out of his mouth, J flipped with her own projections. Her anger was a product of her insecurities and not Micheal’s feelings.

After a couple of heart to heart “Come to Jesus, Allah, Amen Ra’s”, Michael was able to convince J that the photo was only a momento of his youthful past.

He was able to soothe her worries about the health of their marriage.

Insecurity, jealousy and fear of rejection are emotions that a lot of people struggle with subconsciously.

Underneath the personality we try to portray to the world lies a shadow self.

That shadow contains all the pain and insecurities that have ever been forced down and the ones that haven’t been released yet.
