Junior (Monica and Friends)

Dudu/Junior is a character from the Brazilian comic book series Turma da Mônica. He was originally introduced in 1989 as Maggy's spoiled neighbor and later cousin.

Why He Needs To Feed

 * 1) Before Caillou and Peppa Pig's existence, there's another boy who always a spoiled and cranky child, HIM.
 * 2) He hates eating for no reason, when he was just Maggy's neighbor, he just liked to eating CANDY, but when he turned Maggy's cousin, he didn't ates NOTHING.
 * 3) He always torture his "friends" like SpongeBob SquarePants from seasons 6 and 7 and like modern Norman Price, this is most notable in episodes like "Shuttle" and also when he lied for Smudge's mother that he smacked him, but actually Smudge didn't make nothing for him and Smudge's mother didn't believed him, and also irritating his own cousin Maggy.
 * 4) In the stories of Emerson de Abreu, he turned much worse in being a jerkish kid, making Caillou, modern Norman Price, Jeffy from SuperMarioLogan, Peppa Pig and SpongeBob SquarePants from seasons 6 and 7 looking like Pocoyo, El Chavo, Arnold Shortman, Bluey and the classic version of the last one mentioned in comparison.
 * 5) He rarely gets punished, turning a Karma Houdini.
 * 6) Like Denise, the character is considered by many to be the main reason for the decline in the quality of the comic script since the 2000s, mainly in the comics published by Panini, which was where Dudu coincidently started to receive more focus on the stories.
 * 7) In the animated series, his voice is a bit annoying, depending of your opinion.
 * 8) Flanderization: he has gone from a character who didn't like to eat, but was quite funny, tolerable and very good in the old stories for a very annoying, stubborn and disobedient boy in today's stories.
 * 9) His dad - Mr.  Durval - acts exactly like your son.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) His design is cute and decent.
 * 2) He can be a likable character sometimes.
 * 3) Despite being a Karma Houdini, he can get punished sometimes.
 * 4) There are still a handful of people who like him despite his flaws.
 * 5) His original voice in the cartoon by Vyni Takahashi can be cute, depending on your point of view.
