Poor Dean. His outlook on life is still the same now. All that responsibility forced onto him as soon as he could do things on his own, basically. John's lucky he had such a strong kid; he carried his family.

Such a lot to rest on such small shoulders!

Wow!
This was great. You captured the young and grown up Dean in this drabble.
Thanks for sharing.

I wish he'd worked on that very question more thoroughly - a little revolt would have done him good. But probably it wouldn't have changed a thing. Well done.

Omigoshhhhhh so sad! Poor Dean has had so much on his shoulders his whole life. *sobs*

Right at the crux of the matter. Poor Dean - he has to be the one. Good one.

That is true why is Dean the one who has to do it.

Great drabble. You can feel the heavy responsibility on Dean's shoulders.

Could really imagine them as Dean's thoughts as John left them alone when leaving for yet another hunt. Such a responsibility on young shoulders ... and the worry their dad may not return.

Aww! Baby!Dean feels.

That's such a heartbreaking and believable look inside young Dean's mind.
Thank you
