It still bugs me that everyone was so ready to write off MC as a lost cause when she was, like, 6. Who tf sees a 6 year old being a bully and DOESN’T immediately blame the adults around said bully for not correcting her behaviour?! Like, legit, are you telling me that a CHILD is to blame for the adults around her not, ya know, teaching her properly?!!?!?! Just strikes me as everyone enabling a bully, and then blaming the bully when the consequences come back around. Sure, the kid should learn to be better, but that kid is still A KID. Unless the kid is showing outright sociopathic behaviour, it’s 100% on the parents to be better parents.
Also, I’m pretty sure the bad behaviour was all just “my mother died, my father remarried” emotions and MC lashing out as a result.
