** Bobby's World does a great job at respecting children while also emphasizing how immature and unprepared they are for navigating life. It's extremely realistic in the way Bobby relates what he experienced, and most adults (aside from a precious few like the late crossing guard Abe) do not understand what he's going on about. The viewers know what he means, but those who aren't provided with the needed context (like most of the adults and Bobby's siblings) will be completely confused and just assume that he has a big imagination (which is true) and not know what he's trying to tell them. This show can be useful for teaching adults - especially lawyers, judges, and social workers - to actually communicate effectively with young children.

* There's something that confuses me. The family decides to move,understandably,because the family needs more room when the twins come. The house they move to is across the street. What,then,is the point of hiring a moving van and suffocating everyone in the car with belongings (that Martha refused to put in the gigantic van that only had two things in it to begin with!) when they could have just carried everything across the street to the new house??

** For drama and RuleOfFunny. Bobby can't flip out about moving if he knows he's just going across the street.

* Does Bobby return Jackie's feelings? Considering his reaction to her kisses, I usually think not, and feel bad for Jackie, but in some episodes, it's hinted that he might feel a little more for her. What do you think?

**** I think Derek (and also Kelly), might just be embarrassed around Bobby since there were times especially in the earlier seasons where Bobby would often make a fool of himself in public or tell embarrassing things about his siblings, which may be the reason why both of his siblings are mean to Bobby.

*** According the Bobby's World wikia it reveals that Derek gets bullied by his peers so he takes his anger and frustrations out on Bobby to feel better.

** He's just the typical 90's older brother stereotyped from cartoons, a bully one who just wants to feel superior to his younger one.

** Yes they do! Children his age tend to imagine things like that when they play with a box for instance or when they interpret things adults say in some way, and don't forget they're really curious too just like Bobby does.

* I might've missed an episode, but why is Derek always so mean to Bobby? Is Derek just a rude person in general, or is he possibly jealous of Bobby for being the baby of the family during the first few seasons? It sure seems like it in a few episodes.
* Since I haven't been a child in so long, I must ask; do most children really have a wild imagination like Bobby does?
* Surely this was revealed on the show, but how old is Bobby? I can assume that Derek is around eleven or twelve while Kelly is in high school.
* Does Bobby return Jackie's feelings? Considering his reaction to her kisses, I usually think not, and feel bad for Jackie, but in some episodes, it's hinted that he might feel a little more for her. What do you think?
