You know how they call Sitters-In-Training SITs... I really hope they did not abreviate Teachers-In-Training in that book LMAO! Ahahaaha, I so never thought of that. LOL!

I thought Cruddy Carrot was really funny. I didn't like the Barrett/DeWitt family. I thought the Barrett's were okay, but for some reason the DeWitt's always rubbed me the wrong way.
I never liked it when the Arnold twins would fight. They seriously had no idea how to deal with their problems and ALWAYS needed a baby-sitter to help them out. But I always thought Gozzie Kunka was really amusing.
I liked the tension between Nicky and Linny in Babysitters at Shadow Lake, even though they never really fought. It was really interesting since they really didn't know each other that well. It was kind of like Laine and Claudia in Stacey's Mistake. Just because you're friends with people doesn't mean they'll be friends with each other.

^ Agree about the Dewitts. Had forgotten about Nicky and Linny but also agree with your statements on them. I remember the tension betwen some of the other charges, too, in Mystery Train. Who was that? I know the boys were all friends with Derek but can't remember who else even went on that trip. ;D

I like the Dewitts okay alone (though we never see them alone ;D) and the Barretts alone but rarely like them when they're together. The combo is growing on me, though, and there are some subplots with them that I've liked more lately. ;D

I don't have much of an opinion on the DeWitts...none of them seemed to have much personality.

^ I thought Lindsey might have had potential in Math Whiz but they never developed her character. I would have liked to see more of all the Dewitts without the fighting so we could have "known" them better. I felt like Taylor was especially a mystery, though I got the feeling he did look up to Buddy and wanted to get along but followed Lindsey and fought with Barretts out of loyalty to her more than anything. This isn't based on much, though, except my assumptions. ;D

Yeah, Lindsey was really the only one that stood out to me.

I remember a lot of conflict between Madeline (I know I didn't spell that right ;D) and Suzi, too, now that I think about it. I wonder if Marnie and Ryan will get along well since they're pretty much growing up together as siblings.

I liked the fight that was Adam and Jordan vs. Byron because you hardly ever see the triplets fighting.
