ML is 2D character. He does not have opinion, think, speak or do anything at all. Even after he learns from the kids mouth on how they drove teachers out with prank eg put bunch of needle on the chair to really hurt their teacher, the narrative reaction following those story is a bit blank as if he doesn't have existent and opinion at all. A bit strange though, bc we have this FL who is full of opinion and dialogue in the story, but then suddenly join with ML who is so vague as if the author forgot to draw up his personality on storyboard.
[collapse]I don't think saying children are all innocent and let them do whatever they want is ok. Especially if they physically or mentally hurt people. Even more for adult like ML who let them do those terrible thing to others without trying one bit to stop them at all and proceed to find new people. He was reading storybook to those kids all night, so 'no time to talk' is not an excuse. Spoilerso for the story itself, I find the logic and message of this story kind of disturbing. It will be about strong and tolerant MC who can win the heart of the twins follow by winning heart of dashing ML too. But that is it.
[collapse]According to twins and ML behaviors, it is as if the author can justify their bad behavior by using a poor childhood as an excuse. I know we have lots of ML grown up with abusive childhood by either got too much unwanted abusive attention or got abandoned. They had no good enough adult around them, so they grow up like that. However, these twins got a capable adult like ML whom the twins respect and listen. But this adult has no sense, he is caring but decide to ignore their behaviors and let kids do whatever they want because one day there will be MC who will waltz into twins life and teach them😒. Like really, ML has no backbone? No sense? Don't know why, but this story reminds me of one of a 'prevention tool commercial' years ago where a father staring down at his child screaming on supermarket floor.
