Which Odyssey parents would you prefer?

If you were a kid in Odyssey. . . and didn't want to be an orphan!

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Which parents would you like?

June and Bill Kendall -- Ok, so he's a flake who likes women with month names...

What whole Jack incident?

-Jonathan
When Pastor Barclay shared that Donna went to a ceremony to see a guy.
Ah, I remember. Though he figured stuff out at the end of that episode.

Good call.

*laughs*

I was looking at that thread and thinking, "That looks familiar. I didn't know I'd posted in here." I eventually figured it out though.

Anyway! Back on topic. I voted for the Rathbone's: FREEDOM to do what I want and sleep in!

But Doris will still make you pick up your laundry. :(

I wouldn't like them as parents because they don't provide the kind of guidelines and moral standards that kids need to be presented with. I'm not saying that parents should be stifling, but Bart and Doris seem to border on not caring in a lot of ways. Some older eps, like "Missing Person," portray a more loving father who just has a hard time showing that he cares, but those eps are by far the minority.

Yes, they aren't Christians, that is so sad.
And their son is a jerk.

I picked Other because all (or most) of these families have good qualities. It's really hard to decide which one! =P~
