Maybe that's what went wrong with her...maybe her grandmother was even a worse mother than Harriet was to Nellie!

She told Harriet a very sad, horrible tale of the abuse she'd suffered, and got out of trouble at school that way. But then Harriet found out that she'd been raised by a doting grandmother. That's what I recall - but, I haven't seen the Nancy episodes in a LONG time, so I could be wrong.

Yes. She had lied about her mother abuses. Charles spoke with the Orphanage Superintendent and he told him Nancy had been raised by her grandmother. When Nancy was born, her mother died...It seems that her granny had been a very caring one, but she just couldn't take care of Nancy for she was too wild and mean, so the poor elderly lady must give her to the Sleepy Eye orphanage. Huh?

I'm Nancy. I guess she isn't too far from Nellie. So it is close enough. I'll take it. Wink

(I seriously thought I was going to be more like Willie or even Nels - maybe I am more like "Miss Oleson" than I ever realized! Yikes

)

Who's going to do the cooking?!?!

Me too. I was glad I got him. Hey, It's better than being Nellie, Nancy, or Harriet : )

I'm Nels. Does this mean kids are going to steal my screen door?

Hope not!

I'm Harriet. I'm ok with that-I'll embrace it. She's one of my favorites anyway.

I'd tighten the screws on the hinges if I were you. . . just in case. And welcome to the board, Otto!

However, maybe I do need to give her a break because if both her parents died and she had no siblings, maybe her attention-seeking behavior grew from that.

I don't blame her grandmother for sending her to the orphanage.I do however feel bad about her parents death.I guess maybe her acting like that was how she would deal with it.

I thought just the same. Her granny must have been more patient with her. A child who lost her TWO parents must be very saddened.
