Talk:Mr. Barnes/@comment-24669562-20150523021558

Another character I really like. He and his wife are much nicer and more mature than their son, although now I wonder if they really run the household or let Binky run them (I say this because in "Thank's A Lot Binky," Binky has a fit and his parents just sit or stand there and watch him. My parents wouldn't have let me get away with that. It seems they let Binky get away with some things. And in "Binky Goes Nuts" Binky complains about the dinner they have instead of their usual Chinese dinner and Binky's parents aren't so hard on him.

Well, then again, if I was Binky or in Binky's place, I wouldn't want my parents yelling at me. And at least Binky compromised and gave the dinner a chance.

Well, maybe Binky's parents do discipline him, we just don't see it. Wonder if they're aware of his bullying.

I'm also wondering if Mr. Barnes was ever a bully when he was a kid before being the nice guy he is.
