the mystery deepens

Me: Do you still hate Scooby-Doo?

Charlie: No, not very much. I like it.

Me: What do you hate?

Charlie: Uh...(long pause)...I like Tom & Jerry...uh...I just hate something I don't like. It's...something...

He trailed off as he became transfixed by an episode of Tom & Jerry.

We're no closer to learning why the child sometimes hates Scooby-Doo, if in fact that's the case. However, it appears we can work under the assumption he has an understanding (if somewhat limited) of what it means to hate something.

The investigation continues...
