I wonder if, had time passed and members changed, Charlotte would have been the next MA.

didn't they say that charlotte was starting to come out of her shell a lot? i remember she was a lot bouncier and outgoing and i think MA would have been too embarrassed at that age to do a lot of the things charlotte did. but i do think charlotte would have been a good secretary for the bsc. she's really studious (spelling?) and thoughtful and organized.
i could definitely see that whole group of friends (charlotte, becca, haley, vanessa, danielle, etc) taking over the bsc when the girls grew out of baby sitting though. i think they naturally work well together and with the exception of charlotte, they all have younger siblings. i could see danielle taking the president's job easily.

Speaking of Mary Anne/Charlotte, I wonder if they modeled Charlotte's character after MA in those early books...shy, quiet, studious, but always described as pretty with chestnut brown hair and brown eyes. Only child, mature for her age. Makes me appreciate the fact that Stacey was Charlotte's favorite sitter, who was opposite her in so many ways.

I did always like when Stacey and Mary Anne spent time together--i..e., at Sea City.

I always pictured the babies of the series growing up and starting a club, if only to restart the series. Andrea P, Lucy Newton, Laura Perkins, and I'm blanking on other babies in the series right now! Marnie, Emily Michelle, they're too old. That's what I picture as well Lucy as president, Laura as vp, followed by Skylar Korman, Tara Gardella (from the first mystery book), umm Hope Felder (from book 32; not yet born).... Uhhhhhhhhh I'm actually drawing a blank on the others. Squirt could replace Logan.

Oh I have a list!: Lucy Newton Laura Perkins Andrea Prezzioso Squirt Ramsey Lynn Benedict Hope Felder (she had yet to be born actually Mrs. Felder told Kristy that she was pregnant in The Secret of Susan) Tara Gardella (From mystery #1) Ricky and Rose Salem (From #52) as for the positions I can see: Lucy as President Laura as vice president Andrea as treasurer Tara as Secretary Hope as Alternate JP (squirt I can see it since his name really is John Philip), Lynn, and Rose would probably be Associate members as well. Ricky would probably be the one much like Anna. I'll help when you need it but I don't want to be part of the club.

It would have been neat if time had passed and the whole thing had been passed down. Gradually, I mean. For instance, a couple of the 8th graders found they couldn't continue, and a few more of Mal & Jessi's classmates joined. Eventually someone else would have a phone of her own, Jessi become prexy, and so on. A few years down the road, Becca, Vanessa, and Karen would join, maybe Hannie as well, and so on. over the course of all that time, the original founders would have grown up. Maybe the series could have ended with Emily babysitting for Claudia's first child!

^That is a really sweet thought, Wenonah, Emily baby-sitting for Claudia's first child. I love the idea of one of the charges taking care of the child of one of their sitters. I do still prefer to think of all the characters as forever the ages they were in the series, I would enjoy reading that type of story.

I'm planning to write a fan fic about Karen Brewer and her friends taking over the Babysitters Club when Kristy and her friends goes to college. I might put the story on here. Anyway, I'm going to have Karen be the president, Nancy be the vice president, Hannie be the secretary, Natalie Springer be the treasurer, and Addie Sidney be the alternate officer. The associate members would be Vanessa Pike, Margo Pike, Ricky Torres, and Bobby (I don't remember his last name...he used to be Karen's bully).

Wow, some of these lists were interesting as I wouldn't have expected the answers. Lucy? Laura? Squirt? Hope Felder?!

Now I'm kinda picturing Karen trying to start the BSC back up only to find out that the Stoneybrook parents had figured out how to function on their own after the originals disbanded. (If the BSC officially quit at 14 then Karen would be 8. It would be five long years before she was 13.)

I actually wrote (well started) a fan fiction with them being in the next generation BSC. So I have an entire version of the club written out and ready to start. I just don't have the time to write it, much less publish it.

I'd love to see the clients form their own club. In the fanfiction I wrote, I mention a twelve-year-old babysitting some younger kids, but I don't specify them. But it takes place seven years after canon, so it's a five-year-old. I had Claire in mind, but it could've been Myriah or someone else.
