Exactly. But I'm pretty darned sure that Paul H meant the same thing when
we were taking about back on the Bean family's luxury resort (after RQ Con
DU). ZZ can tolerate a sister, even if she has a conscience and compassion
because she doesn't tell him what to do and expect him to obey (she 'asks'
and gets much better results).
I was wondering is that are ZZ'ers Trolls going through puberty eternally (with the authority figure problem most males seem to have), or are they just like 4 year-olds with no concept of reposibility. Heck, maybe just the worst of both.
