1) You do bring a good point. I mean Lincoln and Lynn are both young and superstition does tend to come with youth. The only defense I could conceive of would basically be headcanon and I would feel like a jerk if I tried to insist that it's truth.

2) In terms of objectivity, I can't say that Lincoln can be completely excused (especially when you consider that the others attend the others events). I guess what I'm trying to say there is that I can at least relate to Lincoln and understand the appeal. In terms of a rebuttal, I'll say two things. One is that Lincoln eventually feels lonely again and yearns for his family; it's the rest of the family's refusal to accept his apology in favor of a superstition (even shared by the parents) that makes it so hard for people to accept. And secondly, there is a scene at the beginning where Lynn decries Lincoln's interest of comics as "lame". Granted it is placed side by side with an actual event, however it implies that Lynn, for all that Lincoln respects her interests and goes to the games he does go to, doesn't share the same respect for Lincoln's interest.

Im sorry if I sound rude or disrespectful of your opinions. However I just thought I express my feelings and that I do respect your argument
