Can we just agree that Scott Lang is one of the most well adjusted, emotionally healthy characters in the MCU? 

• Has a great relationship with his daughter
  
• Has a consistent, steady friendship with 3 people, who also get along with one another
  
• Has a good relationship with his ex-wife AND her new husband
  
• Even his parole officer would consider socializing with him
  
• Provides girlfriend with emotional support
• Genuinely cares about other people
