Granted, that's basically what AMM did with Lerangis's hack work, so I can see why you're confused. SUH-NAP!
Then Dawn hates Carol some more for eating Thai food with a fork instead of chopsticks Dawn? Thai food is SUPPOSED to be eaten with a fork (and a spoon) instead of chopsticks. YOU'RE the one who's doing it wrong, not Carol.
She says that she doesn't think it's really stealing-- he'd have to pay for her ticket back eventually, right? Ah, another thing Dawn thinks she knows everything about but doesn't! First, same-day flights cost a HELL of a lot more than booking in advance. Second, were 13-year-olds even ALLOWED to fly unaccompanied without a parent/guardian signing for them on either side, even pre-9/11? I'm sure people on here have said they weren't.
Pre 9-11, when I was about 14, I flew twice without a parent signing me out, but someone did have to sign me in and the stewardess watched me the whole time. I can't see a thirteen-year-old signing herself in to a cross-country flight without them at least calling her parents.
Depends. 12 was a more common cut-off, and I once flew when I was 13 and my brother was 11, and since I was over 12, they had no problem with my brother going right on with me. Now that it's post-9-11, they're extremely strict about proving age. I'm taking a flight with my daughter this Friday, and since we have different last names, I've been advised to have not only her birth certificate, but proof that her father's consented to the flight. We're married, but I never did the name change stuff. I'll be taking a note and his birth certificate. Funny thing, I didn't have to do this before she was 2 and was a lap child. From the day a child turns 2 and onward, the rules change. Now some airlines won't let anyone under 15 fly alone without a bunch of rules, like a non-stop with no plane changes, etc., and a much higher fee, and the person dropping the minor off must specify the one person who will pick up the child, and the airline will ONLY release to that person with proper ID. When I was 13, we got off the plane and went to

There's this amazing Indian place across the street from me, but they're closed on Mondays. My husband never cared for Indian before I got some from that place, and now he's hooked.
The world not bowing down to Kristy; the BSC telling Kristy no; Dawn being completely ridiculous... oh man I cannot wait for the next part......
I think it's hilarious how Kristy complains about how poor the We Heart Kids Club is and how much better the BSC is, yet she's very clearly jealous of the former, which shows that you don't need a bunch of ridiculous titles, dictatorships and meetings that you are not allowed to be 1 second late for, to be successful..
And Dawn seriously? Did you really think there would be no issues with leaving school, travelling to LA, stealing your dad's credit card, hopping on a plane and travel to the other side of the country, all the while not telling ANYONE?! Seriously Dawn....
The big downfall to the W<3K is that they don't have set meetings, making their group pointless since parents still have to call around anyway. They do at least need meeting times and a schedule book. They basically get into a clusterfuck because of disorganization.

...having never read this book, I can only conclude that what has happened to Dawn is what happens to all people who cut off their Kool-Aide drinking.

That's the first actress named DeWitt that comes to mind.
