Didn't Claire have this same talk with Theo when cockroach and him had tix for dance mania and Theo insisted cockroach go and cockroach insisted he go.and then Theo said it again and cockroach said okay and Theo was pissed. Same scenario.
I do get what you’re saying. This was part of her charm & character. It all balanced out with the rest of my he individual siblings & overall family dynamic. Perfect.
Vanessa was my least favorite character she always was starting trouble for her siblings. And either Vanessa or Denise put in her head Elvin is going out to be with "gorgeous"friends was weird and he couldn't be trusted while she was home with the kids. Also he said he cancel and stay home before he went out. So he was considering Sondra's feelings but Sondra also gets easily manipulated
