I think Debbie said, "When it comes to taking care of people, he's[Michael]a fuckin Picasso!" to Em.
LOL, sounds like her. But she's right. We live in a culture that tends to undervalue people with that skill, to not see the "genius" in it. It's more commonly associated with women and we tend to undervalue so called "feminine" traits anyway. (Watch my inner feminist come out! down, down, girl!)
I grew up with a dad like Mikey. My dad is the nurturer of my two parents, the one you could always talk to, the cuddler, the listener, the accepting one and even the cookie baker in my family.
