Netflix's Sex Education: 13 Questions That Must Be Answered In Season 2
7. Will Eric's Relationship With His Dad Strengthen?
Eric comes from a religious African family with an overly concerned father. At first it seems like Eric’s father doesn’t accept him being gay, but it’s more that he’s concerned that Eric’s flamboyancy will get him hurt one day. Unfortunately, his worst fears come true when Eric is attacked whilst dressed in drag.
Hopefully Season 2 will explore their relationship further, causing it to develop and grow stronger. Eric seems to have a big family, but we know little about them so it would be good to see more of their dynamic as well as their culture and religion.
Struggles with religion and sexuality, alongside racism, are very common for young people. It would be great for Season 2 to dive into this further.
