I was only saying TV shows are aimed at entertaining viewers in order to promote advertising revenue, not life lessons.

Redemption is not a fictional concept. It is a lesson in life.
The show’s intent wasn’t to establish a real life correlation between Adalind seeking redemption and having a better life or her unplanned pregnancy leading to a happy relationship. In the same way, anything Nick and the others did that contradicted expected police behavior wasn’t intended to deride law enforcement. It was simply what they were written to do in stories about a Grimm battling dangerous Wesen.
I think you misunderstood my point. I wasn't stating that Grimm was teaching life lessons. My point was that posters apply their own life lessons of redemption to Adalind's actions.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
