** By contrast, Hoggett only seems to show approval once it's been ''earned'' and is quite generous with his affection towards those he respects. Between that and the sheep teaching the young piglet the importance of manners, it's little wonder Babe turns out so wonderful.

* On first viewing, there's something mean-spirited about how Hoggett's hard work building the dollhouse for his granddaughter is only rewarded with a spoiled response. However, it actually becomes meaningful when you realize it's meant to set up his love for [[FamilyOfChoice Babe]]. Despite he's only a piglet, Babe showed more respect and kindness towards him throughout the movie than his own [[SpoiledBrat granddaughter]] did in one scene alone. Is it any wonder [[TheStoic Hoggett]] so much as [[NotSoStoic danced]] for Babe to boost his morale?

* Duchess the Cat and the Hoggetts' granddaughter are both [[SpoiledBrat Spoiled Brats]], and the granddaughter's parents (the Hoggetts' daughter and son-in-law) show ItsAllAboutMe tendencies too. What is the common factor in all three of these cases? Mrs. Hoggett. Duchess is her pet, and of course she raised her daughter, who in turn raised the bratty little girl. DotingGrandparent that she is, she also indulges her granddaughter, even comforting her during her tantrum over the dollhouse. This is the downside of Mrs. Hoggett's bubbly, affectionate nature: she tends to be too indulgent with every child or animal in her care, and they become [[SpoiledBrat Spoiled Brats]] as a result.
