Hey, guys! I am finally wrapping this up. Part of this segment is sad and makes me really hate Karen even more than usual. Stay tuned! ( Read more... )
For some reason, the adults find seats and leave Karen to help Andrew get ready in his classroom--for fuck's sake. *head desk* You know, I have a hard enough time with the adults being useless in the BSC series. I just think things like this drive it into the pathetic department. No adults anywhere, eh? No adults to supervise that the kids are actually getting dressed, no adults to make sure there's no problems whatsoever, no adults to tell a child that the pants he's wearing are gonna fall down, UGH

My poor baby. I hate this chapter.--I agree. I'll admit I'm not somebody that can laugh it off right then and there if something embarrassing happens to me. Things bother me and I'll tend to dwell on it. I think it tends to be worse when it's something like what's about to happen to Andrew. People are pretty cruel imo. All it takes is one kid to basically start a wildfire when it concerns teasing somebody after something like this happens

I'm largely against Karen with her butting in on Andrew's play (the bunny aspect of the book she handled as best as could be hoped for) but now I'm just seeing it as an utter failure of parenting. Seriously, did none of Andrew's parents ask him about the play? Give him a chance to talk about the problem with the pants and either tell Karen to stop pushing that pair or get the kid a safety pin or something? Do literally anything beyond noting the fact that the kid was still breathing

'My sister Karen helped me. She has been in many plays.'
Shut up, Karen. SHUT. UP. You FORCE your way in, then don't do what you're supposed to. If you were an adult, I guarantee you you'd be blacklisted up and down the entire east coast.
And still, you hear nothing from the parents.
Remember, Richard is the parent we're supposed to hate, and we're supposed to like the other parents and LOVE Karen, and you know we're supposed to side with Karen in this bullshit book.
"Sometimes it's hard being me."
Oh bull shit. She's a spoiled little rich kid who gets to take vacations all the time and gets everything she wants. Her life is so easy and full of privilege that I don't even feel bad that her parents are divorced. They both married other people who love her and Andrew instead of treating them like outsiders. As far as families go, Karen has it made in every way.
It's a good idea in theory, and certainly a realistic one for a seven-year-old, but again I have to wonder about the suitability of it. Rabbits need hutches if

Karen can be in charge of getting Andrew ready for a play, but the Pike triplets can't wipe up their own goddamned milk.
*head, meet slamming door*
