Gil (Steve Martin) and Karen Buckman (Mary Steenburgen) have a son
Kevin (Jasen Fisher). They fret so much over their son that he has to
seek solace in therapy. His psychiatrist Helen Buckman (Dianne Wiest) is
beset with her own problems and is anti-male to some an extent. This
leads her teenage daughter to get married to her boyfriend (Keanu
Reeves). At the same time, her son seems to be getting too detached from
her.
Then, there are Nathan (Rick Moranis) and Susan Merrick (Harley Jane
Kozak), who have too much expectation from their children. On the other
extreme is Larry (Tom Hulce), who has no interest in the life of his son
(Alex Burrall). Parenthood focuses on the ups and downs that all the
