Poor Jan Brady

Poor Jan Brady, the middle girl in a family too large really to even wonder who the middle child might be, teased by her stepbrothers, and forever in her sister’s shadow, the prettier one and more popular at school, who for the sake of a few extra years gets to date a different boy every episode.
     Poor Jan, who, if it weren’t for the glasses and the hair and the clothes, might have been invited too.
     Poor Jan, who could maybe put up with all of this if it weren’t for these hideous freckles . . . but the lemon juice does nothing!

  5. Remember the braces??? Actually, I think she was prettier than Marcia but they just made her appear not so. And I know what it's like to be the middle sister of 3...forgotten! lol

  6. I agree with Leslie that she was more attractive than she was made to appear.
