I definitely agree with this. Most writers seem to struggle to accurately portray children, but Claire's character felt like many kids I have been around.

Yes, that is true. She did add something special to the narrative. I think she was portrayed well.

I also found the hair getting caught under the seat in the airplane odd. Like how could that realistically happen? And wouldn't it just be caught and easily gotten free just with unlooping it from what it was caught on? It wouldn't be all tangled/knotted up.

I was like, how is he going to save her by actually threatening her life? How could he believe he was strong enough to dangle her like that and not accidentally let go or slip etc.? I found it pretty unbelievable. I would think he would just hold her securely and make threats or something, that would be scary enough. I know, I know, it tied into the Rapunzel theme, but someone would never do this unless he was an absolute villain and didn't care about her.)

Me too! I thought I would be the only one, so I am glad to see your comment!tanner87cbs wrote: ↑24 Mar 2020, 10:54 I hate to be that guy, but Claire's character really annoyed me personally. I thought she was portrayed with the characteristics of a younger child than she was. Maybe I am jaded for raising a 7-year-old girl and trying to get her to stop acting like she is 2 at time .
