If the clients . . .

If the charges formed their own babysitting club, who do you think would be in it? And if it was modeled after the BSC, who would be in what position?

[wenonah4th]

We've talked about this before, having younger sisters in some positions.

I've always thought it was possible that Karen would start one, for some reason. Maybe because Kristy did? I dont know why really. I just thought it was possible. I'm not quite sure who else would be in it though

[toshemeup]

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.

[booboobrewer]

Yeah, my first thought is always Karen, though I like the idea of the babies. K seemed really into the idea of starting a club when Kristy explains to her in Kittycat Club.

[msstock87]

I always think of Karen too starting her own club. She liked to do a lot of stuff Kristy did. Also she did start the kittycat club and after the kittycat club she started a fun club.

[sparklymouse]

Karen kinda sucked at running the kittycat club though. I still think her attention span was too short to run a BSC type club. Something would come up that she wanted to do that would conflict with meetings or a job and that would be the end of her club. She would definitely not be like Kristy in the way that the club was Kristy's number one focus. Maybe Karen would be a Shannon-like associate member that liked to help out but also had a ton of other things going on.

Did we ever hear about the Fun Club again? I don't think so...I always thought that sounded like an idea that would fizzle out fast.

[otempora541]

I know this idea is popular in fanfiction, but I see Vanessa Pike inheriting the club and filling it with her friends: Haley Braddock, Charlotte Johanson, Becca Ramsey just some names I can think of the top of my head.

I can't see Karen having the patience to deal with small children. I could imagine the next generation having her as a sort of, behind the scenes person, but I can't see Karen making it a succesful club.

[helsieboo]

Interesting one.

I think Claire Pike would be president and I think that she'd do a good job, possibly a bit bossy. Myriah Perkins would also be in the club; she'd be a good VP or perhaps she'd be secretary. Suzi Barrett would be in and also Jenny Prezzioso.

I think it was only mentioned one more time in LS #5, early in the book when Karen kept getting headaches (and hadn't been to the eye doc yet). Her mom mentions how busy Karen is now with school and meetings of the Fun Club. I believe that was the last time we ever heard about it.

Re: the Fun Club. I bet Lisa was thrilled that she no longer had to entertain a bunch of kids who weren't even really Karen's friends.

[cokiemason]

i bet lisa was thrilled when the big house months rolled around, too i can't see karen having a club. i think she'd want to... but she definitely doesn't have the attention span, and she's too bossy-- kristy is bossy too, but karen is bossy and all 'me me me!'

[Kylie90210]

I think it depends on the ages. I think the older kids might take it on first (Vanessa, haley, Charlotte, etc) and then the younger kids eventually.

[digigirl02]

I like that idea of having the legacy be carried on throughtout the next generations.
