The one that's just before the cruel, hurtful words "I'm a person too."

6. Elly doesn't like the idea of not having him around when he comes to visit. We see this in a few years when she exposes her tonsils to risk of sunburn because she's not running a hotel, ELIZABETH.

What I have been learning now that my kids have finally left my house is that the parents have the right to inflict themselves on their children when they want. While Elly may be complaining, she and John never visited Elizabeth at school at Nipissing until her graduation and only Elly made the trip to Mtigwaki. I have found that when my kids come to visit me, they also have other friends they want to visit that they have not seen in awhile. But when I go to visit them, we are number one in their book (aside from work).

As for Elly, she may not have realized the screaming woman in the yard is the reason that her kids may have wanted to spend time elsewhere. It does help if you are pleasant to be around.

I'm not certain that either idiot understood that they were allowed to visit their kids at university. This is because they're not smart enough to realize that while their parents couldn't afford to take the time off, they easily could.

Lynn lived in the same area where Nipissing was, so we have another indication of how insulated she was. When Lynn was going to the Vancouver School of Art, she lived at home, so there was no reason for her parents to visit.

They can't know what she doesn't know.

As we have seen in the past, the only thing that spurred Lynn on to research and investigate was severe criticism from her readers. For all I know, it was such criticism that led Lynn to have Elly visit Mtigwaki.
