I have no idea why people care about her so much. I never will understand.

I think a lot of the internet sees themselves in her (mousy, awkward, reserved, ignored by the popular clique) and was vicariously pissed that she was fridged while the (80's stereotype of) popular, pretty Nancy got to kill monsters and was not altogether broken that she was missing.

You don't have to dislike Nancy to like Barb, though. They're both just teenagers. Don't think it needs to be framed as Nancy vs Barb at all.

Not at all. But that was pretty much the vibe I got re #JusticeforBarb, that Nancy didn't look long or hard enough. Not that she could have, really, what with Barb being sucked into a parallel dimension! But people like to stretch.

Nancy cared (she was that was worried she was missing). But that kind of stuff gets thrown to the wayside when there is a monster trying to murder you and a child with superpowers.

Nancy was the only person who cared

Yeah, that part was weird. Her family seemed to barely notice she was gone.

As far as the evidence they had went, she'd driven to the bus station. Also, the one time we saw her mom, it was like...the day after? So no time had passed.

I guess that's fair about her mom, but I still feel like there was a lot of attention focused on Will and with Barb no one did anything. Granted, she was much older than Will and people thought she'd got on a bus, but I didn't feel like people were thinking about the fact that not one but two people had disappeared. I mean no one even wanted to believe Will was really dead (which he wasn't of course) but everyone figured Barb just suddenly left town without telling anybody and oh well.

Yeah, that was super weird. I know if me or my sister skipped town at Barb's age, my mother would not have stopped until she found us. Especially if we didn't tell her we were leaving. Barb certainly didn't seem the type to just take off without telling anyone.

I think that was very much an 80s thing though. A pre-teen goes missing and it's stranger danger! An older teen goes missing and it's sex, drugs, and trouble at home!
