Summary:
The behind-the-scenes look into the family lives of the Bronsons, the Nelsons, the Parkers, the Potts, and the Wilsons. Told from the points of view of both the parents and the kids, The Goodbye Year explores high school peer pressure, what it's like for young people to face the unknown of life after high school, and how a transition that should be the beginning of a couple's second act together - empty nesting - might possibly be the end.
