This is so terrible. Also, the traditional Easter meal is ham or lamb, not turkey. Which might seem like nitpicking, but it's just another time where Enter seems like an alien.
I've heard of people eating turkey on Easter. The actual strange part is the Dunns eating regular food for once, instead of stuffing their mouths with candy and cake.

Well, it is a special occasion. I guess that's the only time they eat regular food, on holidays and stuff.
 
I think if he went with the aspect of Easter egg hunting, that would've made more sense. I mean, that's popular with the kids. Also, it seems a little more interesting than the given idea.
 
So, when people reach elderly status, they're in control again? So, this just makes the entire role-reversal completely pointless, got it.
I think Enter said that the elderly are still subservient to the kids, but instead of going to school, they're forced to invent things to keep Enter's society running.

Maybe it like Patton Oswalt suggestive where when starting at 90 years old one less law applies to you each following year until you can anything.

 
What happens to the elderly's authorities when the grandkids reach teenage status? Seems kind of rude if other people's kids are calling the shots.

I guess since once they graduate they can get their own place, only their employers can tell them what to do. Plus they have to abide by any rules set by kids outside of the workplace.

But if they don't graduate, I guess the Home for the Childless takes care of them until they die.
 
Also, why do they keep calling their Grandmother by name?
That's just weird, not reversed authority
I'd imagine it'd come from Linda calling her own mother by name as a child just like the kids do, and it just kind of sticks.
A lot of kids also call their grandparents "Grand[ma/pa] [Name]", so maybe Enter just saw that a lot and found it appropriate to just use names.

It makes sense within the context of the series but also highlights how difficult it is to relate to these fucking people.

Enter thinks this makes the society able to exist in the context of invetions, but he forgot a tiny detail:
NOBODY IS TAUGHT HOW TO DO SHIT
The school only teaches about "having fun"
 
I got to where they introduced Lisa, and I have to say...

If the kids are supposed to run the world, can they at least act like it? If I didn't know the premise of this show beforehand, I would honestly assume this was a generic animated sitcom. It honestly feels written as such and there's little indication that there's this whole kid-ruled world other than where they shove it down your throat with some stupid kiddy logic.
