Daughter

Daughter, a character in  Mother of the Year book, is your character's daughter. Although her default name is "Zoey", the player can choose to name her as they wish. She is first seen in Chapter 1.

Appearance
Your Daughter's appearance is dependant on which of the four character models you choose for yourself.

Personality
Your Daughter is a bright and intelligent girl. As expected, she is shown to be upset and depressed after other kids bully her. She finds it hard to speak sometimes and freezes, but when she becomes more confident, she finds her voice. She also is a bit of a perfectionist; for example, spending more time fixing the stars on her ceiling because they were off by twenty degrees. She also believes in science, and since there is no evidence that ghosts are real, she doesn't believe in ghosts.

Your Character
Your character is her mother. Despite the costs of moving and paying for necessities as well as extra school expenditures, you and your daughter move to a new city so that she may attend Bernhardt Academy. Because she is young and somewhat introverted, she doesn't appear to realize how much you are struggling to pay for everything. Although she can tell there is tension between you and her father, she doesn't seem to understand why.

Guy Ledford
Guy is her father. After you two divorced, Daughter has had no contact with him in approximately four years. When he reappears suddenly, she is thrilled to have him back and to spend time with him. She has fun with him but is disappointed when he doesn't remember her birthday or doesn't come to her birthday party.

Luz Mendez
Although Luz was mean to her on her first day of school, Luz was quick to defend her against August and the two girls quickly became friends. If Your Character romances Thomas, the two girls will giggle whenever they notice and make fun of it.

August Blackwood
August is her bully. He believes that because she went to public school in the past and is not financially well-to-do, that those facts make her dumb. He frequently picks on her, insults her to her face, and calls her a cheater if she does well. In Chapter 13, she has the option to stand up to him. In Chapter 17, if her New Beginnings Board is completed, she is shown having lunch with Luz at school and both August and AJ ask to join her. It is her choice if she wants to invite him to sit or not.

AJ Blackwood
AJ is August's brother. He tries to make his brother stop bullying Daughter, but as the meeker twin, his words go unheard. In Chapter 13, when/if the daughter stands up to his brother, he will take her side and later ask if he can sit together with her and Luz during lunch, because "I kinda think you're really cool."

Eiko Matsunaga
Eiko is her science teacher. She doesn't see August bullying her because she knows he knows not to do in her class. This makes it hard to punish him for what he does in other teachers' classes. In Chapter 13, she hands Your Character a letter she wrote for the meeting with the principal when she found out that Eiko may get fired, writing that Eiko "is the best teacher I have ever had in any subject ever, period." She had it signed by all pupils of Eiko's science class (according to the superintendent, she collected about two dozen signatures).

For her 10th birthday in the same chapter, Eiko gifts her a biography of Sally Ride, inspiring her to maybe dress up as her in the following year for Halloween.
