Claire wasa appealing character onModern Family , mainly because she was relatable to viewer . She was n’t the cookie - ship’s boat interlingual rendition of a mother . She had flaw and she broke down from time to clip .

When Claire wanted to introduce an former supporter of hers to her family , she was necrose when her Kyd were out of mastery and her husband was hold out a fake mustache .

“No Honey She Said You Couldn’t A-D-D Because She Also Knew You Couldn’t S-P-E-L-L.”

Haley Dunphy transformed over the year , but it take her a while to become an unionize , ripe grownup . When it come time for Haley to employ to college , she had to answer an essay question that call for her about hardship that she confront develop up .

When Gloria and Jay first got married , it take the extended family some time to get used to the new dynamic . Gloria was far younger than Jay and had a fun - have intercourse Word who was far too mature for his historic period .

Claire , especially , did n’t trust Gloria because she thought she was a " gilt digger . “Claire did some ugly thing to Gloriaat the beginning , which included endless burns at Gloria ’s expense . After Luke and Manny got into a fight at school , Claire vented to Phil in the car about some of the things Gloria said at the principal ’s berth .
