Case 3

Case 3 victims are those who, for the most part, have a neutral relationship with the family, although they may lecture or reprimand at times. These take some effort to annoy.

Case 3 Parents
Case 3 parents or guardians are characterized as parents who evidently care for their children, although they can be a bit demanding if they are provoked. One major difference between Case 3 and Case 2 parents is that Case 3 parents have a sense of humor and a relatively wide margin of tolerance, whilst Case 1 and Case 2 parents have thin margins.

Examples in literature

Case 3 Siblings
Case 3 siblings are often siblings who care for their siblings or fellow family members, but may let loose their rage when they are repetitively provoked or constantly targeted by a family member.
