Michelle gets so much unnecessary hate from the FH fandom due to her bratty behavior.

I think she acted like a normal little girl with bratty moments. If anyone should get blame for Michelle's behavior, it should be Danny, Jesse and Joey for enabling her and never truly disciplining her, especially Danny.

I know this episode has been over-discussed to death but take Please Don't Touch the Dinosaur (618). Jesse is the one who has to apologize for not keeping an eye on Michelle causing her to knock over the dinosaur. But Michelle knew better than to run around a museum. Michelle HERSELF even admitted it was her fault, but Danny blamed Jesse.

Michelle wasn't THAT bad. She could be sweet sometimes. She invited Mickey Rooney over to the full house on Christmas when she saw he was all alone in Arrest Ye Merry Gentleman (811), she let Stephanie be Princess of the Day after she was a brat in The House Meets the Mouse Part 2 (624). While she had plenty of horrible moments, at the end of the day she was just a little girl who was a victim of bad parenting.

Everyone always calls Michelle (a little girl!) all of these names when Danny is just a horrible parent and allows her to act this way.

I don't even think that Danny was "too easy" on her, but that is another discussion for another time.

My feeling has always been that Michelle only acted like many little kids do in real life. Little kids will do stupid things, and a lot of them will be brats some times. When people say that she should have died, or even calls her a pyschopath, that says more about them than about Michelle...

I don't understand the hate toward Michelle. Her character when she started talking is one of the reasons the shows ratings were so good.
