Because he's stupid enough to think that he can be waved through on his own say-so. It's clearly the fault of someone else that he's not treated like The Protagonist Of The Human Race.

Whereas the author, Lynn Johnston, has simply never taken her kids driving through the Anointed States and because of that, knows nothing about what it takes to drive kids out of one country and into the other.

Because doing so would have cost money and also reduced her status from "adult worth taking seriously" to "Mom".

As I have said before, Lynn impresses me as being a mean-spirited and slow-witted child with a kid's idea of how adult life works. When she blathered about the generation wheel turning at fifty, she meant it so she thinks that if people see her kids with her, they're going to take her strip away and make her give back all the money!

We must also remember that Lynn is the same out of touch imbecile who thinks that seat belts and child proof caps are excessive because she never drank drain cleaner or got decapitated in a traffic accident back when she was Lindy. She's not going to realize that children didn't up and start to get kidnapped in the eighties because of the woke mind virus. Five-O used to impose a press ban to keep the Elly Pattersons of the world from causing a panic.

Lynn's Comments:

Today's exercise in name dropping needs something:

The last panel is a tribute to my hero, cartoonist Len Norris. His drawings of police and border guards always made me laugh out loud. I learned so much from him.

Said thing is to have 'learned' replaced by 'stole'.

He seems too sensible a person to be an acceptable mentor.

I think part of the problem is the new paint job on the car. That is highly suspicious
