Interesting, I'm currently reading a book where something like this is a major plot element:

absent father encourages preteen daughter to dress "as a woman" by leaving way too much money under her pillow, knowing that his wife is strictly against it.

Preteen believes her mother is restricting her freedom against her father's will, ignores her warnings ... disaster looms.

It's a fantasy novel in a more-or-less 18th century society with magic, so the disaster is very palpable yet at the same time not what it would be in the real world.

I think this is my least favorite PBF, but that might be because I’ve always hated Family Circus.

I didn't even realize which comm I'm in before I read your comment!

Fascinating, how they're playing with styles.

And yeah, this is not my favorite style. But the facial expressions of the mother are very good.
