For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for June 04, 2009

This is a really valuable episode; there are lots of kids who have problems with unfamiliar bathrooms, but they think they’re the only ones.

Good grief. Bowel movements, menstruation, unwanted pregnancies and other bodily functions just take the fun out of being a highly developed intellectual organism.

LYS but poop jokes make a 5 year olds world go round.

Maybe if Michael uses his bathroom, Lawrence will feel more comfortable about using Michael’s bathroom.

On the nail, Macush!

Although this may seem innocent to the young tikes, I smell disaster.

burglary missing children etc….

Coffee - this was the early 80s … it wasn’t AS BIG a deal then, but you are right … now a days it is.

Good grief! But luckily Michael can use the bathroom at Lawrence’s home anyway. Michael, help yourself to get over with #1 quickly and then go back to bed NOW!

it was just as big a deal.. the media just brings it to our attention more often now

I see two potentials for conflict here:

If Lawrence’s mother believes she’s home alone, she’s liable to get mighty concerned over the sound of multiple toilet flushes in what is supposed to be an otherwise vacant house.

If Lawrence’s mother is NOT alone… hmmm… let’s leave that option alone for the moment….
