This book's level of “Adults Are Useless“ is just about at my breaking point. First there's the teacher who does literally nothing as the class bully starts, no exaggeration, an all-out brawl in the classroom. Now the MC's parents are giving her shit that their UNEMPLOYED, ALCOHOLIC NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR *totally* wouldn't just abandon his kid, because who even does that? Certainly not unemployed drunks! 🙄 (This book came out in the '90s!)
