Now that you mentioned it he really thinks he did kill his family whether it really was his fault or not, but if he thinks it was his faul, why doesn't he at least try to do something right THIS time, i don't get it and his statement when you confront him "I'm really doing the best here i can" is just stupid, he sits on his ass and lets Kenny, who is one of the few group members, who can fight get drunk, he could've taken that bottle away from him, even if Kenny then maybe had punched him. Kenny's another thing, he did quite some mistakes too, but he also did SOME things right, Ben didn't, yeah he grabbed Lee's Glock when we were escaping, that really makes up for Crawford i guess. Still Kenny has his problems, and occasionally fucks up too, we actually could open a thread about him as well, but Ben... you pretty much said it: Clem can take care of herself better than Ben could, how comes that teenager can't get as much done as the 9-year old girl? She's got heavy shit on her mind too, I don't think she is stupid so she probably knows her parents might or might NOT be alright, and she IS scared of walkers, but unlike Ben she can focus for a little time and be useful once in a while. That might just be because she has somebody like Lee to encourage her, and to guide her, and Ben doesn't, i don't blame him completly for everything, but for some things. I mean the axe-door-handle thing, that was really, really, really (x10) ... stupid, it was the door, through which they came in.

Girls mature faster than boys! :P
