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.

Keep kids busy and outa trouble. Todays parents especially with teenagers do not. As a result teenagers get bored and into trouble. Adults like to stay busy too. Have a great weekend.

I wish Elly could (have) known how wonderful the kids turned out thanks to her parenting. Also my mom, but then she does I hope.

You can tell when Lynn adds new material to her old stuff by the detailed backgrounds. She wanted to simplify, and has by not having such involved (and the were wonderful) storylines, but she can’t help putting in some of her previous style.
It is still good…

@lightenup - please don’t feed the trolls, when you react to their comments they get just what they want. Best to just ignore them.
