Elizabeth Written by Johanna Elisabet (1/18/2004 7:03 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Mr Bennets relation to his daughters, penned by Johanna Elisabet

Mr Bennet relationship with Lizzie differs from the other girls. She can ask him about something and get an answer with no barbs towards herself. (In chapter 13 she ask Mr Bennet what he thinks about Mr Collins sense.) She is the only partner he needs to share his pleasure in Mr Collins absurdities at dinner (chapter 14). He confides in Lizzie when he wants to be free of Mr Collins by sending him out on a walk to Meryton with the girls (chapter 15).

These occasions sets Lizzie apart IMO. Any thoughts?
