Linda's 'favorite' kid?


Since it's generally assumed that Louise is Bob's favorite, who do you think is Linda's? I think it's a toss up between Gene and Louise (even though she almost openly favors Bob.)

It's a rare thing, but I think Linda might genuinely not have a favorite. She does love each little Belcher in a different way, though. Tina's her creative child whom she doesn't really understand, but whose bravery in her nonconformity Linda admires; Louise is tough as nails, very much a Daddy's girl, and rarely lets Linda in, but when she does, it's a real treat; and Gene, while a bit yucky in the way that boys are, is the easiest, readily understandable and accessible, but of course that won't last much longer.

My opinion, she genuinely treasures each of them with tremendous and roughly equal depth. If Linda were presented with Sophie's choice, she'd probably offer up herself and Bob. "You wanted one kid, you get two adults! Come on, that's fair!"

"If you didn't know, you're an idiot; if you did know, you're my enemy."

Although I find her generally annoying, I do like that Linda treats all the kids fairly equally. She reminds me of Marge Simpson in that way.

I always thought Tina was his favorite. Louise and him are close, but in a more friend way than in terms of as a favorite child. I think how far he goes for Tina and the way the connect/react show how she is his favorite.

I'd say Gene.

For sure Gene.
They have secret spa every Sunday, and go shopping together.

Louise and Linda don't get along too well all the time, and Tina is so weird that Bob and Linda are just trying to figure her out.

Tina is bob's favorite. Linda doesn't have a favorite, she's a great mom. She's everything I wish Lois Griffin was.

Tina? Naw, Louise is definitely Bob's favorite; she's Daddy's little girl. She's the one that he has the most intimate scenes with.

With regard to Linda, at first I was going to say Tina; however I think her nurturing and protective instinct comes out more with her as Tina seems the most defenseless. However, now I'm beginning to think that she does seem to indeed love them equally---despite her occasional jealous of Louise's closeness to Bob.

reply

I'm gonna have to say Gene. They're the most alike out of the whole family, so it definitely gives off that vibe. But I agree with everyone that says that Linda treats them all the same, unlike Bob with Gene.
