Maria is a kid who sees things her own way- and expects the world to see it her own way too! Her friend Joey is more practical. He helps keep her grounded, though that’s as easy as handling a Thanksgiving balloon in a hurricane. Sue is special and she knows it- better than anyone. She’s writing her autobiography now, but she’ll live it later. Bob takes things slower. Ms. Payne is their teacher- she enjoys her job, she truly does. She’d enjoy it even more without the students.

Definitely knowing that your mom may have been right, the pain will fade away but knowing that your mom was right will hunt you forever.

This is always such a shock to kids. How could their parents, who have lived longer and done more things, possibly know more than a kid who’s only been here a short time? Especially when other similarly inexperienced kids seem to have SO MUCH information that MUST be true?

She’s going to feel that for a few days.

If she’s a typical kid, she’ll do everything she can to keep her mom from finding out. Covering up injury marks was usually what we did first.

Yup, when we were kids it was nothing to go to school all bruised-up, Do it TODAY and Child Services will be up Mom and Dads butt before you can blink.

Calvin would either be intimidated, or way competitive.

She might have to go to the hospital. Mom is sure to find out.

The third panel is great!
p.s. The hardest day will be when you’re past your teenage years and you realize she was right about a lot of things! :-)

I learned a lot about drawing WHUMP panels from Charles Schulz. He was a master at it.
