Alright, so this post is gonna be a little different. Rather than reviewing an episode like I normally do, I want to start a discussion. So, here's the question:

Who's the best role model for Lincoln?

Among Lincoln's five older sisters, who is the one he should look up to the most? Right off the bat, I'm gonna eliminate Leni and Luan. Leni for being too absent-minded and Luan for being not only too reckless and harmful with her pranks, but we haven't seen her teach Lincoln any life skills.

So, that leaves us with Lori, Luna, and Lynn. While Luna's relationship with Lincoln has been overall positive, and Lori and Lynn's relationships with him have each been mixed, I have to say that Lori or Lynn would be the better role model. While we see Luna bonding with Lincoln on multiple occasions, and we see how she taught him to knit in Roughin' It, like Luan, we haven't seen too many moments that live up to her being "Lincoln's guardian" according to some fanfics. But maybe Season 3 will change that, what with episodes like Roadie to Nowhere (I will be reviewing that episode, but not until about a week after it airs because I have midterm exams at my high school). For now, though, she's out.

So, now we're down to Lori and Lynn. Let me tell you, I'm still torn between these two. I'm literally (pun not intended) deciding as I write. Alright, well, let's go over what we already know.

As far as Lori goes, what I can think of the most are No Guts, No Glori, where Lincoln learns from Lori how sometimes you need to put your foot down, and Roughin' It, where she showed Lincoln her "mud mask" technique.

As far as Lynn goes, we've seen, once again, Roughin' It, where she showed Lincoln how to lift heavier objects, and The Loudest Yard, where she teaches Lincoln to play football. Plus, we see a lot how she teaches Lincoln to handle bullies. On a side note, it kind of felt like she was the only one who was genuinely sorry for the events in No Such Luck; the rest of the family's apologies felt halfhearted.

So, I've assessed what I've been presented, and I've reached a verdict. Who's the best role model for Lincoln?

Lynn

Yes, you're right I said that. Despite her constant roughhousing with him, I do believe Lynn is the best role model for Lincoln among the older sisters. We've seen it before, but I've never truly known it fully until now. I sincerely hope Season 3 will do more to develop their relationship. I've said that at least a million times, but it really is what I'm hoping for.

So, that's my take on this question. Now what's yours? Who's the best role model for Lincoln? Lori Leni Luna Luan Lynn
