– What are things that make Leo scared? More than one thing, most likely lots of things, write as a list
– Give a theory for how Elizabeth, William, Tom, Catherine, Ben, Ethan, and Chloe get onto to Leo when he’s being annoying, and possibly frustrating some of them, do they tell him to stop, are they firm, do they get onto him, and raise their voice a little, do they avoid him, do they walk away? Even though it’s still being worked on, just give concept ideas for how each of them deals with it. Please note: This is when Leo is being annoying or disruptive, so they may not just “give him a cookie”, or tell him a story, Leo would probably only be getting treats if he is good, not when he is being bad.

Notes about the rest of the family: Elizabeth is kind to her grandchildren (most likely offers them cookies), William is also like this (though he would instead tell stories, instead of giving cookies, but William might be an outgoing individual), Tom is outgoing, and mature, Catherine is kind, but she has a little bit of sass and sarcasm (maybe), but Catherine is mostly nice to everyone, Ben and Ethan are chill guys, they often like to hang out with Leo, they even call him “Little Dude”, Chloe has a little bit of sarcasm as well, Chloe might sometimes get annoyed with Leo.

Notes:
– Owen mostly speaks through “goo-goo gaga”, or just baby noises (like giggling and cooing), but he can sometimes speak verbally, but not fully. There is no dialogue when he makes baby sounds, or is upset, like sniffling for example. The only time he has dialogue is when he says, “goo-goo gaga”, when he tries to verbally speak, or when he cries.
– Whenever Owen cries the dialogue says “Waaaaaah!”.
– Owen either walks, crawls, or gets carried by his family
– Leo can sometimes get whiny, which will cause Alex to want to snap, and slap him, but she doesn’t, though she will get annoyed by this.
– Emily, Alex, Leo, and Owen do not all wake up at the same time.
– Alex likes to be on her phone a lot
– Leo can be pretty annoying a lot
– Emily is not really “mean” to Leo, she playfully teases Leo, while Alex can some-what nice to Leo, she mostly gets annoyed or teases him.
– Emily and Alex sit in the front seat (Emily in the drivers, Alex in the passenger), while Leo sits in the backseat
– Leo likes to play a lot.
– We see all the characters relationships with other.
– Leo will sometimes hold Owen, but it might not end well.
– Owen likes being held by Alex.
– Whenever a character is in the bathroom (to brush teeth, go to their business, or to shower), the person inside keeps the bathroom door shut for privacy.
– Have the dialogue be a little realistic.
– The only time the characters call for someone is when they’re on the stairs, they can’t really call from downstairs, because of the layout of the house.
– Alice and David are sometimes tired when they have to deal with four kids, even if Leo does seem to be bothering them, they don’t show annoyance, because he is their son, and he is still learning.
– Each scene is pretty long. And the scenes that have dialogue, they have a lot.
– Whenever a character talks sometimes it says their expressions, example: Alex (annoyed), Leo (pouting), Owen (cooing), Owen (whimpering).
– Owen’s dialogue will say something like this – Owen (cooing):, Owen: Goo-goo gaga, Owen (giggles):, Owen (whimpering);, Owen (sniffling):
– Owen doesn’t say anything when he coos, giggles, whimpers, or sniffles, but it is listed as dialogue even though he’s not speaking.
– Most of the time when Leo is being annoying, or says something that is him being annoying, she responds to him, but sometimes she’ll just ignore him.
– Leo calls his parents Mom and Dad.
– Leo is not “babied” by his parents. Sometimes, Alice would be sad that her kids are growing up so fast, she does not baby Emily, Alex, and Leo.
– Alex and Emily’s friends do not have confirmed names.
– Alice does not drive her kids to school, Emily does, since she has her license.
– When arriving at Leo’s school, Leo is the only one who gets out of the car, as Emily drives through the car line, to drop Leo off, Emily and Alex never get out of the car.
– Owen does go to school yet, he stays at home and is taken care of by his mother. In fact, Owen stays at home during the entire story.
– Alex can’t drive because she’s 14, she can’t get her permit until she’s 15, and she can’t get her license until she’s 16.
– On regular days, Alex and Emily leave school, they go to pick Leo up from school, but Alex and Emily talk on the way to Leo’s school, before picking him up.
– Leo is in 5th Grade, this is not his first day of school.
– Alex is a freshman in 9th Grade, while Emily is a senior in 12th Grade.
– Emily, Alex, and Leo do not ride the bus.
– There will be a part where Alice and David forgive their daughters, after they apologized to Leo for what they did.
– Emily, Alex, and Leo call Alice and David, Mom and Dad, because they’re their parents, Owen on the other hand calls Alice and David, Mama and Dada, because he is a baby, Owen is the only sibling that calls his parents Mama and Dada.
– Leo sometimes stutters when he is nervous
