Where do you think Max and Ruby's parents are?

Is it me, or are Max and Ruby orphans who live alone and occasionally visit their grandmother?

Has anyone ever seen or heard a reference to the parents?

DD loves this show but it is starting to irk me that the parents are never around

It's funny you asked this question for weeks I have been wondering about that. I have only seen their grandmother. This is my ds favorite show and everytime I watch it with him that's the first thing that comes to my mind "Where are the parents"Chat Icon Chat Icon

their parents are out having "alone time" to get away from annoying Ruby! Chat Icon

If I had to listen to listen to her voice saying "MAAAXXXX" all day I would be at the bar drinking. Chat Icon

More importantly than that, where are Stephanies parents and if she lives with her aunt and uncle, howcome they are pupets and she is human? And why do they let her hang out with adults so much?

And how do Lightning McQueen and Sally Carrera make sweet automobile love?

You buy the bit, you buy the premise.

I have it in my head all day too now that it's on from 6-7pm and that's the only time I'm home with DS and have the TV on during the week. I can't wait till they rotate the Backyardigans back in that spot!

Re: Where do you think Max and Ruby's parents are?

Quoted from http://www.nickjr.com/shows/max_ruby/parenting_features/meet_rosemary.jhtml

An interview with the writer, Rosemary Wells:

Q: Would you describe for us the relationship between Max and Ruby? How does it work?

A: Ruby is seven and Max is three. Their relationship is based on my two kids when they were seven and three. Even though they love each other, Max and Ruby have very different ideas about everything. Max is mischievous and disorganized. Ruby is bossy, determined, and very organized. In each story Max wants one thing and Ruby wants something entirely different.

As in most other classic stories, we don't see Max and Ruby's parents, because I believe that kids resolve their issues and conflicts differently when they are on their own. The television series gives kids a sense about how these two siblings resolve their conflicts in a humorous and entertaining way.

I'm not too sure if I buy into this.

Don't brothers and sisters usually solve their conflicts by beating the crap out of each other? Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I like this show and all of the books.

Maybe the parents are off with the parents from the Peanuts cartoons Chat Icon
