Since its debut in 1979, For Better or For Worse has touched comic strip readers as few cartoons ever do. Cartoonist Lynn Johnston’s eye for detail and her uncanny sense of what real parents and children struggle with daily are a big part of her success. The world has watched the Patterson family grow up in real time, and to many readers, the Pattersons feel like family!
Parents and children alike will relate to the obstacles that the Patterson family faces. Curfews, parent date nights, babysitting, pets and distractions are all hurdles that the Pattersons must overcome in order to enjoy each other as a family. They face the same obstacles that real life families do, which is what makes them so loveable.

So much for the “I’m sick, can’t go to school” scam.

I’ll never forget the my kids’ doc looking at my own sore throat during flu season and telling me to stay away from my 6 month old baby and three year old. Good luck with that, doc.

The worst thing I ever caught from my children was chicken pox - at age 26!!!! KNow what, you get much sicker than the children do when you are older!!!!!

When we’re sick we need compassion more than the “Don’t spread it!” lecture. I would have cried too!

My four year old always gets sick, and she is the saddest child at that time. Always wanting hugs and for you to rub your back. The next week, I had it!
The least little thing hurts their feelings when their down. Just like us adults!
