Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 11, 2019

Show us, Lucy van Pelt, where such a legal act is written.

Be smart, Charlie Brown, jump over Lucy and go directly to the people with authority, her parents.

Yet he’ll get involed

re: “bigger than him”. Just wait ‘til you’re teenagers, and he shoots up past you. My baby brother ended up close to 6’ tall, to my 5’!

And when little brother becomes larger than big sister?

I remember when I was in grade school, most of the girls were as big or bigger than the boys, and they pushed us around. In later elementary years (which for me went to grade 8), we ‘found ourselves’ and paid them back in snowballs (during recess) or crass remarks which would send them screeching to find what now would be called a safe space. Your time will come Linus, little grasshopper.

Never get involved in a sibling disagreement

How smart is Charlie Brown?

I believe this is the time Rerun was born.

enjoy the power while you can, Lucy!

Yes, it is illegal, Lucy! Because you’re not in charge of the house.

Yeah let’s see what the biggest authority in your house, aka, your parents, says about that.

Might makes right!

Oh please…where are the parents?

Time for legal intervention. Call in the attorneys!

There’s an Amazon women’s tribe recruiter that would like to interview Lucy.

Trust me Big Sisters are a legal system unto themselves.

Hobbesian reasoning from Ms. Van Pelt.

She is correct in the last panel, though
