Re: it's the kids

I like him because, even though he is not perfect obviously, and I didn't like the idea of him leaving his children either, I believe him to be the more mature one of the lot. He proved it in the scene where they were all in Longbourne talking with Mr. Bennet. I like the Coronel also, but he was very childish trying to provoke Bingley. And Bingley is being an idiot. I agree that Jane shouldn't have accepted him so easily in P&P.

And of course, the children are just too sweet!
