User blog comment:SpongeGuy12/How would you make Lori a better character?/@comment-4618045-20171220012025

Lori is a character with a lot there. In some way, she has already had some development. I think she has gotten less rude and condescending to her younger siblings. Plus, there are plenty of other episodes that show inklings of what she’s like.

I think what will really make her better is an arc. She has been shown to be obsessive about the people in her life (such as Bobby) and her need to be the sole responsibility bearer. While these moments are great, they have yet to be connected into a long-term development. What I would like to see are more episodes that focus on this aspect of her character. You can do a lot with these insecurities storywise and they can lend itself for character growth. Lori can learn that even in a family full of colorful characters, she is valued and she will always have people that will support her. Her being able to grow past that will not only make her a more interesting character, but can lend itself to other topics (such as her coming to terms with becoming an adult)
