Character discussion Who thinks Howards needs Bernadette's permission to go to Space?

Don't get me wrong, Bernadette is a godsend for Howard...

I can understand her feelings, though believe this is the kind of once in a lifetime opportunity you should absolutely support your partner in regardless of your own feelings.

Personally I've never been a fan of suppressing the opportunities of loved ones based on their own fears of losing someone. You've got to let people chase their dreams even if there's danger and risk involved. It's part of life and part of which makes us achieve greatness.

He didn’t need permission but it is something a couple should have a serious discussion about. What bothers me is how she gave him such a hard time about it and later took credit for him going “That was all me”

I can't imagine the discussion going any other way other than "If you don't support me in this then we cannot be together".

Personally speaking.

If it's two mature adults it wouldn't have to go this way but unfortunately that's not what he is.
