While I agree to an extent, I also just think it's also documenting life as we all know it as both parents and children. Albeit in it's own clever storytelling and excellent animation way. The fact this is somewhat novel should probably be odd, but just points to the fact that adults have been "creating children shows" instead of just showing them what childhood looks like, stuff they can relate with, stuff parents can related with, it's all relatable because it's so - real. It's basically animated reality TV in a way and we all know how novel that seemed when it started.
When I learned that some of my favorite TV shows of my childhood were only made to sell toys, it was kind of shattering, but then I see it in everything now. Paw Patrol find a dinosaur land - aka - you need to buy your kid 8 new vehicles and the new dino characters, up next, Paw Patrol goes to space! Adults making TV shows always have a weird ulterior motive and the programming tends to reflect it.
