Collected Thoughts

Well, as my own post made clear, I think it's irresponsible the Kents kept him in the *first* place. Sure, sure, he comes to them all wee and cute, but they know, from the outset, that something isn't right. I'd argue that, upon finding the pod, they even know he's probably not *human*. But they *take him home with them*? Don't tell anyone what they saw and found? It's sheer luck he *wasn't* the first wave of some kind of invasion, or that he didn't turn out to be a monster or something, but in all seriousness, they were irresponsible from the get-go. The fact that they continued to be so is confounding, yes, but hardly surprising.
