I actually think Britt seems to have a rather messy home life. How can we expect a 12 year old in a seemingly strange household to act like a 25 year old? Maybe she has genuine reasons to fear her mother. I've seen other posts where she has expressed this.
I guess I don't mind a 12 year old acting like a 12 year old nearly as much as I mind 15 year olds saying things like "kids these days" (as though they know any other days) or trying extra hard to appear mature.
She's a kid, let's back off.
I don't expect her to act like a 25 year old - if she's 12, she should be acting like a 12 year old, by respecting her parents, being decent to her animals, and not sitting unattended for hours on the Internet. I agree that her home life is messed up, but apparently I wasn't supposed to say that on a post. I guess the only way to really find out what goes on there would be to have SallysSlave62 join this discussion
