Oh Elly. This is normal clingy child behavior. April is acting just like a regular little girl. They do this sort of thing all the time and you should not be concerned that she has never done this before in the last 4 years. She is just at the right age to decide that she wants to be attached to your body 24/7. Think nothing of it.
Velcro Companies legal department wants a word with you. Velcro is a registered brand name.It’s Hook and Loop.(Google “Don’t Say Velcro” – the video is fun to watch!)
GoComics is not doing anything about censorship of the above. It is understood there is freedom of speech. But we must remember that the strip Canadian. The First Amendment does not apply to the Pattersons, nor does the Second Amendment.
Lynn’s Comments: Amongst my readers, “Velcro Day” became a popular saying for a while. I often wondered what the inventors of Velcro would have thought of it!

I have a Doberman like that. There’s a reason they’re called Velcro dogs…

I don’t understand why they didn’t take her to see a therapist after everything happened. It’s obviously a reflection of the event.

Better yet, call it a static cling day.

If you through enough crap against the wall some of it will STICK.

Elie, a sure fire way to break the velcro bond is to giver her simple chores to do.

Having a small child hanging onto you while you’re ironing doesn’t seem like a good idea. Elly should set a chair nearby & put April on the chair

Aristotle once said “Happiness is an activity”. Get some markers and paper lunch bags and make some puppets already!

I think she’s still traumatized from falling in the river and adjusting to life without Farley.
