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.

At least your spouse is home to take care of the kids, though.

That just means there will be more for her to clean up later. Weekdays the kids would be in school.

When we were married , my wife and I made an agreement – only one of us could be sick at a time. It’s worked for almost 30 years.

For mothers getting sick at any time is the wrong time.

Weekends are the only time I CAN get sick! Thankfully our girls are older (10 and 8) and are pretty self-sufficient, and love to serve.

Little ones love to help out even when you are sick. They are a blessing.

Lynn’s Notes:
This is another strip that brought in the mail. “Never get sick on a weekend” could have been the title of a book as stories of interrupted sleep, well-meaning remedies, and all the things a mom still has to attend to despite fever and chills, came rolling in. No matter what I was going through, the letters I received told me I was far from alone!

If you don’t want to get sick on the weekend, don’t drink on Friday!
