Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for March 23, 2023

You didn’t really think Zoe would do that did you Wanda ? Even with the reward.

That’s just ap-peas-ement.

has Wren become a tattletale too?

Would you rather she copy her big brother, Zoe?

There must be something more complex than eating a vegetable, right?

Cookies are vegetables aren’t they?

Zoe, you should be happy that she wants to be just like you. That means she loves you.

Good thinking, mom!

If you don’t behave, I will make you eat broccoli!

Ha! That posture reminds me of the old Gasoline Alley strips with Skeezix copying Uncle Walt pacing around the house.

Zoe – "What. Wait. Did you say reward? What is it.Wands – “Oh it’s a surprise if you’re successful.” Thinking to herself, Got you to eat a vegetable too!

Poor Zoe. She gets upset when Wren emulates Hammy. She wanted a baby sister (not another brother) and now doesn’t want anything to do with her.

Both kids are carrot-tops!

“Goo!” {I may be a baby, but I’m not stupid!} ㋛

C’mon Zoe. Do it for your mother’s happiness and your sister’s health.

Done of out affection and idolization to be sure.But Wren will grow out of it.

You’re the big sister, kid – get used to it. (And the reward for eating a vegetable? Regularity… )

don’t call your sister ‘it’.

@Rick Kirkman :) Are you ever going to bring ZITS to Go Comics? Or must you stay at Comics Kingdom? It’s the only comic I read over there because all they care about is making money. Sometimes they block me from even reading ZITS because I’ve “reached my monthly max of free comics”. It used to not be that way, I could read all of the comics! And if I missed a few days, I could go back and catch up. Now they only let you go back 3 days. Please bring ZITS to Go Comics if you can!!! :D

I read Zits on the Seattle Times comics pages. No prob.

Hitting below the belt.

WHATAWOMAN!!

I tried “Go brush your teeth.” That didn’t work either.

You will tattle about everything won’t you Zoe?

Well, you can give them life and you can provide them with a safe, loving environment to grow up in, but you can’t always get them to follow good advise.

Nice try! I don’t recall ever not liking vegetables when I was a kid.

Make up your mind, Zoe. When Wren was in her infatuation with Hammie phase, you got bent out of shape because you thought she should be idolizing you.
