"So what yer sayin' is, Joey needs to come out of the cl--" *SWAP!*

foreshadowing

Everything looks good. You included the slight distortion with the wine glass, the blind (window) remains level and consistent in each panel, paw placement on Adrian's head looks to be in the same place even with the different angles, fur markings match up with previous pages, Adrian's frustration is present in each panel but doesn't dominate, expressions are appropriate...

Well done. Can't wait to see the next page.

all terrible for mothers? mmm yeah they are single! :/

I don't think Ali is capable of not being cute :p

No Ali keep being cute

Sticking your kid in a well-ventilated closet is a perfectly sound parenting strategy. Particularly when it comes to discipline enforcement. If the kid does something wrong, spank him hard enough to make him cry, then put him in solitary for an hour.

you are a great mama!

Is it weird as cute as the ladies are I like the joey more?. SO cute, he acts and looks like a real kid for crying out loud, and the fact you can pull it off so well makes me happy. I miss having that level of energy though OH heavens yes, but I don't miss being that hungry I would be gnawing on a plushie ;). Feed the kid..toss him a bone, or something :).

Wonderful work and thank goodness for the fact someone knows how to portray the troubles of single parenthood so well.

Maybe Ali should have been named, Damion.

She is right. All mothers think they're terrible.

I assume that snerk was her breaking through that depression and getting a giggle fom the roo? I would hope so.

Yeeeep.
I can agree with that. All Mothers are indeed terrible.
The only difference is in degrees and in what way. >.>

Pfff that's a fine response XD In some thought it actually may be more comforting then saying you are a good mum. Easier to believe the negative and what not lol

as hard as it is to face for people who've been in this or similar situations, thank you for making this. I really want to see how this is resolved. Because surely many of us are facing our own kinds of stories that may not be like this, but we have the same thoughts and doubts, and sometimes we need an example or a chance to look at our problems from outside our box. this is good :>

"All mothers are terrible" is an interesting statement. We compare ourselves against the "perfect mothers" we see portrayed in media, like June Cleaver and whatnot, and everyone will always come up short compared to the perfect standard.

no one is perfect missy

I love these characters!

no mother starts off as the best.

Awww lookit the liddle ball of cute roo terror :D He is adorable ^.^ and provokes much squee.

I actually loved small enclosed areas. I slept in a toy chest, a closet, and the space between the couch and the wall for a lot of my childhood. Plus it's not like she locked him in and wouldn't come for him when he cries so yeah, let the lil bundle of destructon have a safe place to nap XD

All mothers are terrible with their first child. By the time the next rolls around though they're practically experts. It's not something that can be taught.

I don't think all mothers are terrible. But fathers are, especially when they say they're going out to buy some smokes and come back days later smelling like booze and perfume.

Well that's the other subtext . . . as bad as Adrian might think she is, it was the father who ran out

So true.
