You know.. It's honestly shocks me that people overlook that Henry and his family live in a fictional version of Ashton-under-Lyne in Greater Manchester, a place that's unfortunately not known for being well off, with so many issues of younger kids being neglected growing up, then turning into monsters in their teenage years. With how Henry's parents do treat him, that could really be a reality in a future where Henry actually grows into a teen. It's a reality I've seen growing up living in a not so great neighborhood myself too.

horrid henry is not a show about a horrible boy and his perfect brother. its a show about two boys being raised in an abusive household, the older lashing out because he knows his parents are cruel but he just doesn't know how cruel, the younger having had given into his parents abuse and is now trying his best to meet their impossibly high expectations that no one his age could fufill.

As a child I thought that Henry's parents constantly yelling at him was justified due to all his shenanigans. Now that I'm older I can see all the red flags as clear as day. I watched a LOT of Horrid Henry when I was little and I feel like the only reason I don't see the abuse as normal is because I was hardly ever yelled at as a kid.

@gRinchY-op5vr 2 ай бұрын

@kitty3999 I think the creators logic was if they make Henry as awful as he is in the books, no parent will let their kid watch it incase it 'influences' their kid to be mad. So they tone Henry down, but then that just makes his parents awful instead because nothing about them really changed? They aren't dealing with an impossible child anymore, they're neglecting their child's needs.

I like the inclusion of Peter here, Peter basically suffers the same has Henry, but in a different manner, He constantly has his parents' pressure on his back, the reason he's "happy" when he behaves or plays music is because due to mum and dad's, he's given a false sense of enjoyment, basically fake pleasure, Peter doesn't spray Henry solely because he knows he won't get in trouble, but rather it's because Peter finally snapped, couldn't take it anymore, and decided to experience true enjoyment for the first time in possibly a long time, at this point it honestly seems like Mum and Dad treat peter more as a pet, rather than their own son.

@@mozzasleeping As adults, Henry will most likely experience severe depression and anxiety, making sure everything he does, doesn't get tampered whatsoever, Peter on the other hand is somewhat up for debate, if he doesn't realize the truth, he'll be exploited, defenseless, will find himself in the wrong places and won't understand how the world works. If he DOES learn the truth and understand the reality of his life, he might develop severe PTSD and anxiety as well, and might mentally force himself to be perfect for everyone, even tho his parents may not even be in his life anymore.

This guy reminds me a bit of the whole walking on eggshells sort of parent: you can get berated to tears for a minuscule mistake, yet you can get coddled over a grave error. It makes you anxious to be around them throughout your childhood and well into your adulthood, not to mention all the guilt that comes with it; every time you try to bring up something bad they’ve done, their good deeds are used against you like a weapon. “Dad, I didn’t like it when you yelled at me for locking myself in the bathroom…” “Oh, I guess that makes me the worst parent in the world, doesn’t it?! I never hear you talk about the time I built you a brand new go cart - why do you only talk about the things I’ve done wrong?!” It teaches kids how to suppress themselves as a whole, especially when it’s done at as young of an age as Henry is.

The book and the show are so different. Like, in the book the parents are seen to just be both trying to teach Henry how to behave but in a really unorthodox way that they don't realise is causing his behaviour. Essentially emotionally neglecting him. There are similar moments in the book where he gets told off in public and someone looks at the parents funny, so obviously still bad. But in the show they just are dialed up to 1000 and full on berate and bully their kid😭

So I grew up with golden child syndrome. My mom treated me as the second coming of Jesus and my brother like he'd be lucky to have a normal life. And I'm still recovering from that mind set. It's put me in very unhealthy and dangerous situations because I was told my life would be easy as long as I pleased her. The truth is I now hardly ever contact any of my family, my mom's health is in the trash and life is harder than ever for them. Same for me, but that's my responsibility on my own. Due to my past, I heavily feel for the treatment of BOTH Henry and Peter. They are brothers and should be raised to love eachother, not compare each other. There are no winners and losers in life. It's up to you to live the life you want to live. We all want and deserve happiness.

You spoke of a Horrid Henry reboot with Francesca Simon involved. That’s something I’ve been thinking for sometime actually being interested in acting and writing. If I was doing the show, it would be a live action tv series as a coming of age drama like Sex Education. Henry would have more of his book counterpart but still have the same likability and sympathy in the cartoon. A plot twist I had in mind would be that Peter is adopted, an idea set by the mum since she didn’t want her second child to be like Henry, much to the shock and dismay by the dad. She would also often fake pregnancies to further push the adoption idea towards him, showing the manipulation and dark side of his personality. This would be kept from Peter for years until it’s finally discovered through an unfortunate circumstance. Knowing his life and family has essentially been a lie, Peter goes on a full mental breakdown and Henry, seeing how he is just a much of a victim of the their parents, as he is and the emotional journey they went throughout the series, comforts him and decides to do something about their family, especially the mum. The dad, finally seeing the facade, decides to stand up for his sons and tries to atone for what he’s done. I know it’s massive change in tone and a more mature take on the series, but a story like this is full of great dramatic potential. It obviously needs more fine tuning which is why I would have Francesca’s contribution too. What do you think? Would an adaptation like this work? You can disagree if you want but it’s just an idea that’s been buzzing in my creative mind for sometime since the series has resurfaced. Your vids on the series are great too and I look forward to more of them, especially towards the mum which you said has potential to be a ten part series.

If they reboot Horrid Henry, they should do an arc or episode where he talks to a teacher or school counselor about what REALLY goes on at home and the parents are investigated. Henry and Peter are removed and put into a loving foster home and eventually adopted. True they could go the angle where they parents go to therapy and parenting classes and eventually get them back, but that usually only works if the parents aren't aware what they are doing is abusive. Simon and Francesca seem to be well aware they are abusive. Abusers who are fully aware of their actions rarely change. Or perhaps Simon could divorce Francesca (she seems to be the parent who instigates things the most) and take custody of Henry and Peter.
