“Well, Molly has become a Scot. Ever since Tom hit the repulsive Christopher, she has insisted on being as nice as she possibly can to the repulsive Hope. Every day Hope comes round after school and smells the place out; and the more she smells, the keener Molly is for her to return the following evening, and the more Tom is made aware of his own unpleasantness to his Hope equivalent. I am seriously beginning to worry about Molly’s mental health: how many eight-year-olds would want to spend day ...after day doing something so unappealing just to show that they are morally superior to a sibling?And now we are approaching Molly’s birthday, and she is insisting that she doesn’t want a party; she wants to spend the day with us and her brother and her new best friend. To our immense discredit, two of the five people involved are not so keen.‘She never gets invited anywhere,’ says Molly by way of explanation. They are very different, my son and my daughter, particularly at the moment. My son would make the same observation to justify the opposite course of action.MoreLessRead More Read Less
