Why is Sarah so immature?

edited March 2014 in The Walking Dead

Whys she so immature? Does she have a mental disorder? Did her mom leave them before the outbreak or die after? (And why hadn't she talked about it?)If her mom left them when Sarah was a little kid and Carlos was actually a doctor back than, you'd think she'd be mature because she's left alone a lot because doctors work a lot.

    part of immaturity is of carlos not showing her how the world is out there (in the game xD)

    She was probably overprotected after her mom died or left because carlos wanted to protect her and make sure nothing made ever happened to her. I doubt if he has a mental disorder I don't see any reason to think she does. I think she is just naïve of the world because of carlos overprotecting her and not teaching her about the new world.

    So in short I think its Carlos fault that shes immature

  • shes not immature and you talking like your accusing her. she was sheltered by her dad, so she doesn't know what actually out theer. but when her dad isn't there to save the day she has break down because she is being exposed to what is actually out there in a blink of an eye. so shes not immature. and she might not have talked about her mom and other stuff cuz she just doesn't want to talk about it. like if your mom was eaten alive right in front of you would you want to explain that to someone elts and have to remember that stuff? you don't know if her mom left her purposely. maybe sara does have a mental disorder, but we cant be sure. she might have anxiety idk, nobody knows for sure (I don't think anyone know for sure besides the creators of twd). but I don't think she is immature, she was just sheltered.

  • I don't think she is immature I think she is just very scared (because of her dad)

    One of our neighbors have a daughter with similar issues. For her, it's a mix of Tourette's, OCD and likely other disorders I'm not aware of. However, I doubt that's what Telltale had in mind.

    My guess is that it's any number of the following...

    • Mental disorders
    • Anxiety issues
    • Sheltered upbringing
    • Trauma endured at Carver's camp

    I think your probably right about the last 3. I don't think Sarah has a mental disorder though.

  • Because those glasses?

  • this was mean but funny

    Because those glasses?

  • Does she have a mental disorder?

    Yes.

    Or at least a developmental one, anyway.

  • I think she has a metal disorder, but how long can carlos protect her?

  • I think its partially to perhaps some mental disorder, partially her father and partially her situation (the apocalypse)

  • A) It seems she has an anxiety disorder, given the way she had trouble breathing when Carver came in.

    B) This is a theory, if the apocalypse happened almost 3 years prior, she would have been 12 at the time. Carlos is overprotective of her, partially because of her disorder but I'm going to throw out the idea that maybe Carlos has been, at least subconsciously, trying to keep her the way things were before the outbreak. She wouln't be horribly immature for a regular, albeit somewhat sheltered, 12 year old. I think we all agree Clementine is way mature for 11.

  • fo shiz camelot Carlos he be like Mr Lee before he teachy clemmy boo boo about thaaaaangs but it worst over 2 years he protect her from the chain chomps without the chains I was like this is fo real dawg you cant protect her for long but he stubbon and rose red glasses girl is childlike as a 15 yr old compared to the slutty wuttys in real life fo real

  • I agree with this post. I mean, I don't know either she's older than Clementine, but Clem already knows how it is to lose the parents and then Lee, Sarah didn't lose here dad...yet. Damn It's really hard to wait for the next episode, but take your time guys!

  • I... I think I actually understood that!

    Well now I'm exhausted.

    Break time.

  • Maybe. There's such a huge spectrum of mental health problems that she could have anything, or nothing.

    I think your probably right about the last 3. I don't think Sarah has a mental disorder though.

  • I agree with this though I don't think she's immature. I think it's down to her anxiety and the fact Carlos has sheltered her for so long. I know Carlos thinks he's doing the right thing, but Sarah clearly knows more than Carlos is telling her and if anything ever happened to him or the rest of the cabin group which meant they got separated, it's got to be better for Sarah to know how to protect herself.

    She was probably overprotected after her mom died or left because carlos wanted to protect her and make sure nothing made ever happened to h
