to think charlie and lolas parents are crap?

[addictediam]

Who puts a 6yo in charge of a 3yo? Lola is very sick and Charlie wants to go and play with some friends but has to look after lola. Why is that his job? what happened to their parents.

So aibu or (as I suspect) am i getting too involved! :o

I suspect Ruby is a child bride in some polygamous community (what is with those clothes?) and Max is really her child.

Bec- just spat tea onto the keyboard. :o

Invoice for replacement on its way to you

C and L's dad seems more hands on- he is the one who takes them to parties and the library.But, during the course of tv series, Charlie has two birthdays- yet stays the same age. That bugs me

Going back much further, to my childhood, I always wondered why Bungle (the big, camp bear thing on Rainbow) used to go behind a rock at the beach to put his swimming trunks on, because he was shy. He didn't wear any clothes at all the rest of the time!!!!

wineoclock if it comes to that I think I should invoice Mumsnet for 'loss of earnings' due to how much time I've spent on here today when I should have been working!

See I recon Charlie and Lola's mum is just off screen mumsnetting

Well what about Rosie? Surrogate Mum at such a young age

Apparently the first rule of writing for children is to get rid of the parents as quickly as possible.

I thought Charlie was about 9 and Lola was 5. She is at school anyway.
MY PARENTS would leave a 6 year old in charge of a 3 year old! Thats how I got left on the bus!

Hey, at least they're not starting fires every five minutes like that pyromaniac twat Norman...
