@ Graham:

I disagree. And it is hypocritical to disregard your own standards when it is something you don't feel is explained to your liking.

As you stated we can assume that TW world is just like ours....UNTIL, we are shown otherwise. We were shown otherwise, weren't we? You expect her to be more challenged than she is presented...that is YOUR problem, not the writers. Based on your own argument, the show gave us a contradiction in what we know or believe in real LIFE couldn't happen so obviously that shows you there is a difference. That means to argue any further about how Malia shouldn't be able to do this/that is an argument about what makes her different than feral kids in real life. Well, for one, she's a werecoyote? Maybe that COULD have something to do with it?

When Malia didn't display anything that IRL she should...as you specifically pointed out, mind you...I simply assumed it could be due to her being a werecoyote or something because (again, as you point out) I have no reason to believe her character is following "real life" rules in that regard, since her doing all we've seen her do and adjusting as she has is not consistent with REAL LIFE.
