Yikes. The old “a working mother is a bad mother” trope. One would think Mr. Detorie would be a little more evolved in 2019 – women can be doctors and lawyers and still love their kids and be good moms, Rick. I really doubt we’d see a similar strip about a kid not recognizing her dad because he dared to use his brain and get a medical degree.

Little smile on Ruthie’s face:" Got one up on Cylene’s!"

I think it’s more about Cylene being a pretentious brat.

That last panel is actually pretty sad.

In a way sad especially last strip, for Cylene’s mom not in her life much, Ruthie knows her mom is there, I was there for my kids, as husband worked.

Cylene’s mother must spend a lot of time with her. That is where she got her snobbish attitude from.
