There seem to be several troubled kids that the BSC sits for. Who do you think is most in need of therapy? I had a hard time deciding between Sean and Mel because both of them seem like the biggest future threat to society - potential serial killers But the other ones have major problems and need some type of help, I think. Any others I'm forgetting?

I picked Norman. He's going to be really jacked up because of his family and how they treat him. But you can make a good case for ALL those kids.
I also think that Karen is going to need therapy one day. She lives her life KNOWING she can get whatever she wants and she do whatever she wants without many consequences. Real life is going to smack her in her face, she won't know how to deal!

It was hard to chose just one of those kids. I could see all of them maybe needing therapy someday.
I chose Norman because of how his family treats him about his weight. I always felt so bad for him.

Real life is going to smack her in her face, she won't know how to deal! I'd read that fanfic. I voted for Sean, but Lou could stand it as well. I have no idea who this Megan kid is, though.

Oh, man, Sean. I would have been on the fence about it before Mary Ann and the Library Mystery, but starting fires? That's the first step to serial-killerdom.

What happened with Kerry to get her on this poll? The only thing I can think of is when she stole Tigger and that just seems to pale next to Creepy Mel and Arsonist Sean.

Yeah, I didn't know why Kerry was on it. (I guess because I had never read MA and the Search for Tigger.)

Even then, I don't think it was so terribly messed-up of her. I mean, Mary Anne did leave a baby kitten alone in an unfenced yard; I would have seen him and thought, "Wow, that kitten needs someone to take care of him!" And keeping him in a box was obviously not a good call, but she was only nine. Stupid, yes, but I don't see it as a sign of a disturbed child.

I agree that Kerry's not disturbed at all but put her on there for another choice. Since I thought I remembered someone mentioning that stealing the cat was disturbed, I thought maybe someone would pick her. I know there are others I forgot who are much worse.

I voted for Lou, but I think Jamie Newton needs to be on this poll. I think he's really showing early signs of OCD or some sort of anxiety disorder.

Nicky seems okay for now, but with his brothers' bullying, he'll need therapy eventually.
And, you know, Byron, with the whole latent homosexuality thing.

Jamie Newton? he's too young for this. I don't think Nicky will be all screwed up. He'll probably be a bit of a loner, but I don't think he'll be too jacked up.

I agree about Jamie and Nickey. I think that Jamie's pretty much just a normal but very active 4 year old and Nickey is just the usual "odd one out" in the family who is a target for his siblings. As for those on the poll, Norman may be the most likely to be reached and helped - Lou might be somewhat reachable too. I think Mel and Sean may be beyond help but someone should at least try - they are menaces to society. Sotypical, I just noticed you have 900 posts. Congrats! Pretty soon you'll be sitting for Rosie

I voted Sean. Poor Norman could use someone to listen to him about his family issues, but a good friend would serve that purpose.
